1. An apparatus comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to cause the apparatus at least to;
prompt a user to exercise at a plurality of user selected successive exertion levels, wherein an exertion level is based on an approximate breathing rate of the user;
determine a plurality of heart rate zones based on heart rate measurements received from a sensor while the user exercises at the plurality of successive exertion levels;
generate a prompt instructing the user to exercise while maintaining heart rate within a particular one of the plurality of heart rate zones;
process second heart rate measurements received from the sensor subsequent to generating the prompt; and
determine whether the second heart rate measurements are within the particular heart rate zone.

Abstract
A watch or other type of portable electronic console that employs a number of different functions in order to improve its usability. The watch may, for example, allow a user to connect the watch to one or more remote electronic devices, such as an electronic performance sensor or MP3 player. The watch then displays information related to the connected electronic devices. Still further, the watch may allow a user to control the operation of one or more connected remote electronic devices. Thus, if the watch is connected to a remote speed/distance monitor employing a calibration variable, then the watch may allow the user to adjust the calibration variable.

11. A method comprising:
-
prompting a user to exercise at a plurality of user selected successive exertion levels, wherein an exertion level is based on an approximate breathing rate of the user; determining, by a processor, a plurality of heart rate zones based on associated heart rate measurements received from a sensor while the user exercises at the plurality of successive exertion levels; and saving the heart rate zones. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, are configured to cause a computing system at least to:
-
prompt a user to exercise at a plurality of user selected successive exertion levels, where an exertion level is based on an approximate breathing rate of the user; determine a fat burning heart rate zone and a maximum oxygen consumption heart rate zone based on associated first heart rate measurements received from a sensor while the user exercises at the plurality of successive exertion levels; generate a prompt instructing the user to exercise while maintaining heart rate within a particular one of the plurality of heart rate zones; process second heart rate measurements received from the sensor subsequent to generating the prompt; and determine whether the second heart rate measurements are within the particular heart rate zone; and save a data value, in the non-transitory computer-readable medium, representing a determination as to whether the second heart rate measurements are within the particular heart rate zone. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
