We all have good and bad training days, and you’re not going to feel your best during every activity. With “How Did You Feel?,” you can document these feelings for each activity and provide further historic insight to your overall training log.
Perspective on PerformanceAs you look back at your training log, you may wonder why your performance on a particular day was strong, but weak the following day. By documenting how you felt, you can begin to discern patterns to help you train smarter in the future.
Each activity can be ranked on a five-point scale from "Very Weak" to "Very Strong." On some devices, you may be prompted to rate how you feel when you save your activity. You can also add or change “How Did You Feel?” later by editing the activity in Garmin Connect.
Perceived effort lets you measure on a scale of 1-10 the amount of effort you think you put into a specific activity. The scale ranges from “Very Light” to “Maximum.”
Tracking EffortLogging your perceived effort for each run or ride can lend further insight to your training log. For example, if you ranked an activity performed at a specific speed or pace “Very Hard” a month ago but “Somewhat Hard” yesterday, it’s a good sign that your fitness is improving.
Here is how the perceived effort scale breaks down:
Stamina
Training Effect
Heart Rate
Timing
Power
Elevation
Run/Walk Detection
Pace/Speed
Running Dynamics
Temperature
Intensity Minutes
Body Battery
