Workout Execution Score After you complete a workout, the device displays your workout execution score based on how accurately you completed the workout. The active workout steps are prioritized the highest, measuring how closely your effort level matches the step target, and also that you completed all the steps. Warm up and recovery steps have a lower impact on your score.
The cool down step does not impact your workout execution score at all. Your workout execution score appears only for workouts with heart rate, speed, pace, or power targets. Power Guide You can create and use a power strategy to plan your effort on a course. Your Edge ® device uses your FTP, the course elevation, and the projected time it will take you to complete the course to create a customized power guide. One of the most important steps in planning a successful power guide strategy is choosing your effort level. Putting a harder effort into the course will increase the power recommendations, while choosing an easier effort will reduce them ( Creating a Power Guide , page 10 ).
The primary goal of a power guide is to help you complete the course based on what is known about your ability, not to achieve a specific target time. You can adjust the effort level during your ride. Power guides are always associated with a course and cannot be used with workouts or segments. You can view and edit your strategy in Garmin Connect and sync it with compatible Garmin ® devices. This feature requires a power meter, which must be paired with your device ( Pairing Your Wireless Sensors , page 49 ). After the devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields ( Data Fields , page 78 ).
Creating a Power Guide Before you can create a power guide, you must pair a power meter with your device ( Pairing Your Wireless Sensors , page 49 ). You must also have a course saved on your device ( Courses , page 29 ). 1 Select Training > Power Guide . 2 Select a course. 3 Enter a name for the power guide, and hold . 10 Edge® 540 Owner's Manual Training Good, 67 to 100% Average, 34 to 66% Low, 0 to 33%
