Using Heart Rate Alerts
NOTE: Heart rate alerts are a feature of the Edge 305 only.
Similar to speed alerts, the heart rate alert notifies you if your heart rate exceeds or drops below a specific number of beats per minute (bpm).
Heart rate alerts can also notify you if your heart rate exceeds or drops below a certain heart rate zone—a range of beats per minute. The five commonly accepted heart rate zones can help you determine the intensity of your workout. For more about setting your heart rate zones, see
page 60. For more information
about training with heart rate zones, see page 70.
To set a heart rate alert:
1. Press
mode to access the
Main Menu. Select Training.
2. Select Alerts > HR Alert.
3. In the Min HR Alert field, select a zone from the menu or select Custom to specify your own alert value.
4. Repeat for the Max HR Alert. The maximum value allowed is 235 bpm.

5. Press mode repeatedly to exit.
NOTE: When entering custom heart rate values, you must set your minimum and maximum alerts at least 5 bpm apart.
Using Cadence Alerts
NOTE: Cadence alerts are a feature of the Edge 305 only.
Similar to speed alerts, the cadence alert notifies you if your cadence exceeds or drops below a specific number of revolutions of the crank arm per minute (rpm). For more information about training with cadence, see page
75.
To set a cadence alert:
1. Press
mode to access the
Main Menu. Select Training.

Advanced Workouts
Your Edge allows you to create and save advanced workouts that include goals for each workout step and varied distances, times, and rest laps. Once you create and save a workout, you can use the Garmin Training Center software to schedule the workout for a particular day. Scheduling allows you save setup time by planning workouts in advance and storing them on your Edge. For more information about installing Training Center, see the Appendix.

To
create a course on your
Edge:

HISTORY
HISTORY
Your Edge automatically saves all training data (when the timer is started) and can hold up to two years (1000 laps) of data in memory. When the memory is full, your oldest Edge data is overwritten. Load your history into the Training Center software periodically to keep track of all of your workouts. You can view the data on your Edge or transfer the history to the Training Center software, where you can analyze your data.
History data includes time, distance, calories, average speed, maximum speed, altitude, and detailed lap information. Edge 305 history data also includes heart rate and cadence.
No data is saved when the timer is stopped.
Viewing History
After you have finished a ride, you Edge stores history data that you can view by day, week, or totals.
To view history by day:
1. Press
mode to access the
Main Menu.
2. Select History > By Day.
3. Press to scroll through the list. As you scroll, summary details appear below the list.
