Training effect
See how your workouts influence the development of endurance, speed and power with aerobic and anaerobic training effect feedback.

Race predictor
This specialised tool takes into account your fitness level and training history to help you work toward your race goal and see the impact of training on your predicted finish time.

Performance condition
While you run, Forerunner 745 analyses pace, heart rate and heart rate variability for a real-time assessment of your current ability to perform.

Training load
This stat measures your exercise volume from the last 7 days and compares it to the optimal range for your fitness and recent training history.

Training status
This metric evaluates your recent exercise history and performance indicators to let you know if you’re training productively, peaking or overreaching.
