Hi guys 2. Questions:

1. How can I change my heart rate zones? I had to raise my Heart Threshold Value Run 171bpm (actually I have 168) and I have a very low Aerobic threshold (125-143) but I have 129-148. Can I adjust the areas individually?

2. I set 105 css swim, save, but it goes back to 0 and I set 230 sec run but it goes back to 250. How come?

Thank you

Probably related to the question above so adding it here. I want to change my critical pace for running. I adjust the value and press confirm. The page is refeshed but the CP and zones stay the same as before the change.  
Tried it a few time. Sometimes the zones change but the CP does not change. Seems like a bug.

Hi Giuseppe, I believe your heart rate zones have been adjusted in relation to our recent infrastructure update. You should have received an email detailing what it entails this morning. Also invite you to read this blog post [https://athletica.ai/how-athletica-closes-the-cycle-from-athlete-profiling-to-training-prescription/?ck\_subscriber\_id=2881807785&utm\_source=convertkit&utm\_medium=email&utm\_campaign=Important%20Update:%20New%20Threshold%20&%20Zone%20Calculation%20Method%20in%20Athletica%20-%2014964972](https://athletica.ai/how-athletica-closes-the-cycle-from-athlete-profiling-to-training-prescription/?ck_subscriber_id=2881807785&utm_source=convertkit&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Important%20Update:%20New%20Threshold%20&%20Zone%20Calculation%20Method%20in%20Athletica%20-%2014964972)

You can change your thresholds in your Settings-Threshold.

Also, if you do NOT want the automatic updates, go to your profile and chose “Do not update my threshold values”.

to your point 2. Can you log out and in from your profile and try to update your swim and run threshold again. Let me know if this is repeated.

I ve done as you say: “Log out” setting new threshold..but at Swim it goes back to 0 and to Run250 instead of 230.. I tried to set them from both “Plan Overview” and “Setting” but the situation doesn’t change. I must say that I “reactivated” the Profile 12 hours ago and at the moment it doesn’t even give me the Comments of the Ai to today’s sessions:

@Marjaana @Prof solved thank you!  
Another question:  
Sports percentage distribution is already or doesn’t work?  
And can I become a Bate tester? Thank you!!

Hi everybody,  
I have a question about how the zones and critical heart rate are measured. For example, the calculation of my training zones for running are completely crazy. My critical heart rate is higher than my max… I’ve already modified this data in my profile, but the program modifies it again after I’ve done so, to put this erroneous data back in. What can I do?

Hey @Fabrice

sounds like erroneous data is coming from somewhere.  
Could you please send me a private message with your Athletica user email and I can have a look at your data.

Hi Guys, wouldn’t it be better to be able to set the individual heart rate zones yourself?  
For me, my Z2 is higher than the one set by Athletica (and to raise it I would have to set a higher Critical Heart rate value but that wouldn’t be true.
