Increased HR / Recovery HR / HR differ.

The difference between heart rate at the beginning and end of the phase. Current heart rate in beats per minute (bpm), alternating with a percentage of your maximum heart rate, or as a percentage of heart rate reserve.

Increased HR: If heart rate was lower at the beginning of the phase than it was at the end, the training computer will show the difference in heart rate (heart rate at the end minus heart rate at the beginning). During the working phase, the training computer will show the increased heart rate value.

Recovery HR: If the heart rate was higher at the beginning of the phase than it was at the end, the training computer will show the difference in heart rate (heart rate at the beginning minus heart rate at the end). During the recovery phase, the training computer will show the recovery heart rate value.

HR differ: If the heart rate value was the same at the beginning and end of the phase, the training computer will show an HR difference value of 0.
