Plan Your Training

Plan your training in the Flow web service by creating detailed training targets and syncing them to your A300 with Flowsync or via Flow app. Your A300 will guide you towards completing your target during training. Note that A300 uses heart rate zones in trainings planned in the Flow web service - EnergyPointer feature is not available.

  • Quick Target: Choose a duration or calorie target for the training. You can, for example, choose to burn 500 kcal, or train for 30 minutes.
  • Phased Target: You can split your training into phases and set a different duration and intensity for each of them. This one is for e.g. creating an interval training session, and adding proper warm-up and cool-down phases to it.
  • Favorites: Create a target, and add it to Favorites to easily access it every time you want to perform it again.
