How do I switch my Garmin workouts to be guided by heart rate (rather than pace)?
By Dr. Sean Radford•28th July 2022
This is done by changing the Workout Step Target field (a drop-down list) located under the Garmin Workout Preferences section of your Profile.
There are 4 options:
-
- Speed: All workout steps are guided according to pace.
- Heart rate for recovery, otherwise speed: Pace is used for all steps except those following fast steps used as a period of recovery.
- Heart rate for slow steps, otherwise speed: In practice this means threshold-type steps and faster use speed, and anything slower are guided by heart rate.
- Heart rate: All steps are guided according to heart rate.
