Appendix A: HISTORY REPORTS
Summary Report Definitions
Ride Time
Time of ride defined as any time spent moving. Note: time spent stopped can be included if Joule Mode settings are changed from
speed record control to heart rate record control.
MI/KM
The ride length from start to finish measured in miles or kilometers.
KJ
Kilojoule (1000 Joules). A Joule is unit of work equal to the work done by a force of 1 newton to move an object a distance of 1
meter. Kilojoules are a common unit used to express the total volume of work accomplished during a given workout, ride, or exercise
bout. Kilojoules are used to express the total training load. One Joule per second equals 1 watt. The average power output in watts
multiplied by the time in seconds divided by 1000 equals the total amount of work, during the specified time frame, in kilojoules.
TEMP C/F
The current temperature measured by the Joule’s internal sensor.
AV WATTS
1. Average power during a ride. 2. A common unit used to express effort or intensity amongst cyclists. Note: Average calculation may
or may not include zeros (time spent coasting or with no power) depending on Joule’s set up. By default, zeros are included. For 2
WK, 4 WK rolling averages are time weighted over the selected period.
AV CAD
Average pedal revolutions per minute during a ride. Note: Average calculation may or may not include zeros (time spent coasting or
with no power) depending on Joule’s set up. By default, zeros are included. For 2 WK, 4 WK rolling averages a time-weighted
average over the selectable time period is used.
AV MPH/KPH
Average speed in miles per hour or kilometers per hour during a ride.
AV HR
Average heart rate in beats per minute during a ride. Note: For 2 WK, 4 WK rolling averages, a time weighted average over the
selectable time period is used.
