Paint Bucket Display: If you choose one of the workouts called “Easy 30” or “Moderate 45” or "Vigorous 60” the paint bucket functionality of time in zones is turned on. This screen display shows five different paint buckets which fill during your workout with the matching color of the zones. The goal is to fill each of the buckets without spilling over. If a bucket is not full then there wasn’t enough time spent in that specific zone and likewise, if the bucket is spilling over, there is too much time spent in that zone. As your workout progresses, there is a count-down timer below the image of the buck to show the amount of time left until the buck is full.

Oh, one really huge final feature, this simple powerful app was created by the woman who wrote the first book on training with a heart rate monitor, who created the first PE program for schools and health clubs using a heart rate monitor, and who has now published over 10 titles using a heart rate monitor for weight loss, running, cycling, triathlon, personal coaching and training - she’s the pioneer and the developer of Heart Zones Thrive(TM) - Hall of Fame triathlete Sally Edwards.

Now, go have some fun, use your iPhone and the Heart Zones Thrive(TM) app for the 3 M’s: monitor, measure, and manage your workouts as you do the 3E’s: be entertained, be educated, and be engaged.

Easy 30 is a thirty minute workout that is designed for you to burn lots of calories and stay in the lower to moderate intensity zones. The goal is to spend 5 minutes in Zone 1, the Blue zone for your initial warm up time, twenty minutes in Green zone 2 (Z2) and five minutes in the golden Yellow zone 3 (Z3), the moderate intensity zone. If you look at the fourth bucket called Z4 you will see that the time says 0:00 an in the adjacent buck Z5 the countdown timer shows 0:00. If you choose the Easy 30 there is no requirement for high intensity training in the Orange zone Z4 or the high, hot, hard Red zone Z5.

Moderate 45 is like it’s name, a 45 minute moderate effort workout that is designed to increase your endurance and includes time in all five zones. The goal is to spend 5 minutes in Z1, 10 minutes in Z2, 15 minutes in Z3, 10 minutes in Z4, and 5 minutes in Z5. If you choose the Moderate 45 workout, you fill the paint buckets with time in all five of the zones.

Vigorous 60 is a strenuous and long activity time for 60 minutes in all of the five heart zones. The goal is to fill the paint buck with time in each of the zones as follows: Z1 for 5 minutes, Z2 for 10 minutes, Z3 for 15 minutes Z4 for 20 minutes and Z5 for 10 minutes. If you choose the Vigorous 60 minute workout, you will burn the most calories and have the highest number of training load point called Heart Zones Training Points. 2.0.0 10/03/2015 1.0 04/21/2014
