Productive training
Fitness up 5 in 4 weeks, carrying training fatigue
Fitness +5 in four weeks with form at -10 — a productive block. Keep the easy days easy.
Fitness builds over weeks and fatigue moves in days. Form is the gap between them: above zero you're fresh, below it you're carrying fatigue.

⟨ Session read ⟩
1:00:01 at an intensity factor of 0.77 (against threshold pace 4:15/km, from your profile).
What it did
Mostly below your first threshold — the low-intensity volume endurance fitness is built on, at a small fatigue cost.
Aerobic durability
+5.1% decoupling: some drift.
Efficiency
EF 1.23 — higher than 67% of your 15 comparable sessions.
Pace is grade-adjusted but not adjusted for wind, surface or altitude.

▸ What it tells you
The numbers coaches use, explained on the page where you see them. The figures below come from the sample athlete above.
5:35/km → 5:33/km
watch pace → grade-adjusted
Grade-adjusted pace turns every climb and descent into its flat-ground equivalent, so a hilly run and a track session finally compare honestly.
+5.1%
heart-rate drift, second half vs first
On a steady run, heart rate that climbs while pace holds means you're running out of aerobic fitness. Under 5% is a solid base; over 10% points to heat, fatigue or fuel.
Form −10
productive · fitness 41
Every session gets a load score. Fitness is your six-week average, fatigue the last week, form the difference — and a fixed set of rules says what today should be, before your legs do.
10 km 47:24
from recent best efforts
Your best recent efforts projected from 5 km to the marathon, each with a range and the effort it rests on — and a plain note when that effort is short, old or buried in a longer session.
Swim · bike · strength
one load, every sport
Pool lengths, rests and sets detected from your watch, power curves and Normalized Power for rides, heart-rate intensity for strength — all feeding the same fitness line.
Plan with your coach in Forge: it reads your recent training before it proposes your next week, and it can answer questions about any session.
▸ How it works
It reads what your watch already records. Keep training the way you do.
Free. Email or Google, about a minute.
On Garmin's screen, tick Activities and Historical Data. About 30 seconds.
Your last 30 days first, then every new session a few minutes after your watch syncs.
▸ Your data, your call
Nothing arrives unless you tick Activities on Garmin's own consent screen. Untick it in Garmin Connect whenever you like and new activities stop.
Your runs, rides, swims and workouts. Never health data like sleep, steps, stress or HRV — we don't ask Garmin for it.
Pausing sharing or disconnecting keeps your history. One button in Settings deletes it, whenever you choose.
We don't sell, share or use your training data for advertising, and it never goes to analytics.
Free account. Connect Garmin in about 30 seconds, and your last 30 days are waiting when you get back.
Works with Garmin devices that record activities to Garmin Connect™. Garmin and Garmin Connect are trademarks of Garmin Ltd. or its subsidiaries.

Your threshold pace and your best efforts disagree by 25 % — race a 5 km (or run a hard 3 km time trial) to sharpen this.
Up to four methods combined: your best efforts (Riegel and Daniels' VDOT), critical speed, your threshold pace as a one-hour race, and for the marathon your training volume (Tanda). Trail runs, big climbs, long stops and easy efforts count for little.
