I don't pay attention to the average until after the whole training session or after an interval in a given zone is over to see how well I did at staying in my target zone. What's the point of looking at the average real-time? You could really spike your HR and it could have very little effect on the real-time average if the data set is long. If the goal is to stay within a given zone, I'd say the real-time average is pretty useless.

Nope. It will just weird you out - kind of like chasing average speed when there are a lot of turns and starting and stopping.
