Heart rate differences

[RonHNewark]

Just did a 32 min walk.  14.5 mph.  Dashboard exercise section says 17 minutes was peak heart rate zone.  Dashboard heart rate section says 2 minutes peak for the whole day.  This is most likely closer to correct.  I exercised intensely earlier and doubt I had any peak on my 32 min walk.  Why different values for same activity at same time?  Thanks.

Hi @RonHNewark,

Am I reading that right, you walked for 30 minutes at nearly 15 miles per hour? That would be 7 miles walked, which surely would generate more than a couple of peak minutes?

Not sure why different sections of the dashboard would report different numbers. I'd try to perform another sync and see if they line up after that.
