Cardio load for spinning makes no physiological sense

Inspire 3. Public preview.

This Cardio Load discrepancy doesn't make physiological sense:

  • TODAY. 90 minutes on a stationary bike. Active Zone Minutes: Total 115 min; Moderate 45 min, Vigorous 70 min. Cardio Load 5. HR: Vigorous 35 min, Moderate 45 min.

  • YESTERDAY. 90-minute walk. Active Zone Minutes: Total 114 min; Moderate 70 min, Vigorous 44 min. Cardio Load 65. HR: Vigorous 23 min, Moderate 70 min.

Either the spinning CL is grossly undercalculated, or the walking CL is grossly overcalculated – but they both can't be true at the same time. My spinning CLs are routinely, without exception ridiculously this low.
