Hello everyone,

I have recently updated the way my Garmin calculated my HR zones. From max heart rate % to lactate threshold %. I see though that when setting to LT % my zones are calculated over a certain % (like in the first pic with zone 5 being between 105%-112%). But if I press over “Reset” my zones are calculated over different percentages (with my zone 5 being between 100%-107%).

Why so? Should I press reset or not? I see I have the same zone percentages on my Garmin fr 970, is it maybe that Garmin adjusted these % over the time based on my trainings and metrics or is just a mistake and I should press reset?

Sorry for the confusion but I am confused as well!
