A key measure of the volume of your session. Make sure to edit your session start time / end time for the most accurate readings.
We developed a metric just for all those hard yards you put in during a session! This is a combination of all your HSR distance, and your distance covered while accelerating and decelerating.
Maximum speed you reach during the session in m/s, km/h or mph.
This is the distance that you have covered over 5.5 m/s (19.8 Km/h). Measured in meters or yards, the HSR distance tracks all those lung bursting runs, overlaps on the wings or tracking back to help your teammates.
This is the distance you covered, divided by the duration of your session. A high value here indicates a high work rate throughout your session.
Speed you are currently running at in m/s, km/h or mph. This can be viewed during a Live Workout.
This is the length of your session. This can be edited in the ‘Edit Session’ tab in any given session.
A count of calories burned during a session.
Indicates any imbalances in your running style. Ideally, you would like to see a 50:50 breakdown. Large differences between right and left may be an indicator of a potential or historical injury.
This is the load that your body creates during your session. Gait, running style, weight and session type can all affect this score. When comparing DSL scores, only compare to yourself and base the data off similar session types and durations.
A simple count of how many times you accelerated over 3m/s².
A simple count of how many times you decelerated over 3m/s².
A count of how many sprints you achieved throughout your session. Your sprint threshold can be increased or decreased via the ‘Configure Apex’ option located in the main menu. You must hold this speed for 1 second to register a sprint.
This is the volume of distance covered while sprinting. Your sprint entry speed will greatly affect this distance.
This is your current heart rate in beats per minute.
