The device measures your heart rate variability while you are inactive to estimate your stress level. A lower number indicates a lower stress level. Your current Body Battery™ energy level. The device calculates your current energy reserves based on sleep, stress, and activity data. A higher number indicates a higher energy reserve. Step Goal Your device creates a daily step goal automatically, based on your previous activity levels. As you move during the day, the device records your progress toward your daily goal . Your device begins with a default goal of 7,500 steps per day. If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can disable it and set a personalized step goal on your Garmin Connect account (Activity Tracking Settings, page 9). Viewing the Move Bar Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable metabolic state changes. The move bar reminds you to keep moving. Swipe to view the steps widget. After one hour of inactivity, the move bar appears. NOTE: After a brief timeout, the move bar is replaced by your step goal for the day. Additional segments appear after every 15 minutes of inactivity. NOTE: You can reset the move bar by walking a short distance. Viewing the Heart Rate Widget The heart rate widget displays your current heart rate in beats per minute (bpm). For more information on heart rate accuracy, go to garmin.com/ataccuracy. Swipe to view the heart rate widget. The widget shows your current heart rate and your resting heart rate (About Heart Rate Zones, page 12). Intensity Minutes To improve your health, organizations such as the World Health Organization recommend at least 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity activity, such as brisk walking, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous intensity activity, such as running. The device monitors your activity intensity and tracks your time spent participating in moderate to vigorous intensity activities (heart rate data is required to quantify vigorous intensity). You can work toward achieving your weekly intensity minutes goal by participating in at least 10 consecutive minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity activities. The device adds the amount of moderate activity minutes with the amount of vigorous activity minutes. Your total vigorous intensity minutes are doubled when added. Earning Intensity Minutes Your vívosmart 4 device calculates intensity minutes by comparing your heart rate data to your average resting heart rate. If heart rate is turned off, the device calculates moderate intensity minutes by analyzing your steps per minute. • Start a timed activity for the most accurate calculation of intensity minutes. • Exercise for at least 10 consecutive minutes at a moderate or vigorous intensity level. • Wear your device all day and night for the most accurate resting heart rate. Improving Calorie Accuracy The device displays an estimate of your total calories burned for the current day. You can improve the accuracy of this estimate by walking briskly for up to 15 minutes. 1 Swipe to view the calories screen. 2 Select . NOTE: appears when calories need to be calibrated. This calibration process only needs to be completed once. If you have already recorded a timed walk or run, may not appear. 2 Widgets
