How do I know if my exercise was intense enough?

You can use the `validate_exercise_intensity` tool. It compares your peak heart rate against your age-predicted maximum to confirm if the session was sufficient for a valid assessment.

What do the recovery numbers mean?

The recovery numbers represent the drop in beats per minute (BPM) from your peak heart rate. A larger drop generally indicates better cardiovascular efficiency.

Can this tool provide training advice?

Yes. After assessing your fitness, you can use `generate_training_recommendations` to get specific guidance on training focus and intensity.
