you move during the day, the watch shows your progress toward your daily goal .
If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can set personalized step and floors climbed goals on your
Garmin Connect account.
Move Bar
Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable metabolic state changes. The move bar reminds
you to keep moving. After one hour of inactivity, the move bar appears. Additional segments appear after
every 15 minutes of inactivity.
You can reset the move bar by walking a short distance.
Turning off the Move Alert
1 Hold the touchscreen to view the menu.
2 Select > > Move Alert > Off > .
Widgets 5
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 watch 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). The watch 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 vívomoveTrend watch calculates intensity minutes by comparing your heart rate data to your average
resting heart rate. If heart rate is turned off, the watch calculates moderate intensity minutes by analyzing your
steps per minute.
• Start a timed activity for the most accurate calculation of intensity minutes.
• Wear your watch all day and night for the most accurate resting heart rate.
Body Battery
Your watch analyzes your heart rate variability, stress level, sleep quality, and activity data to determine your
overall Body Battery level. Like a gas gauge on a car, it indicates your amount of available reserve energy. The
Body Battery level range is from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is low reserve energy, 26 to 50 is medium reserve
energy, 51 to 75 is high reserve energy, and 76 to 100 is very high reserve energy.
You can sync your watch with your Garmin Connect account to view your most up-to-date Body Battery level,
long-term trends, and additional details (Tips for Improved Body Battery Data, page31).

Heart Rate Variability and Stress Level
Your watch analyzes your heart rate variability while you are inactive to determine your overall stress. Training,
physical activity, sleep, nutrition, and general life stress all impact your stress level. The stress level range is
from 0 to 100, where 0 to 25 is a resting state, 26 to 50 is low stress, 51 to 75 is medium stress, and 76 to 100 is
a high stress state. Knowing your stress level can help you identify stressful moments throughout your day. For
best results, you should wear the watch while sleeping.

About VO2 Max. Estimates
VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body
weight at your maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an indication of cardiovascular strength
and should increase as your level of fitness improves.
On the watch, your VO2 max. estimate appears as a number and description. On your Garmin Connect account,
you can view additional details about your VO2 max. estimate.
VO2 max. data is provided by Firstbeat Analytics
™
. VO2 max. analysis is provided with permission from The
Cooper Institute
®
. For more information, see the appendix (VO2 Max. Standard Ratings, page34), and go to

to provide a fitness age. If you have a Garmin Index
™
scale, your watch uses the body fat percentage metric
instead of BMI to determine your fitness age. Exercise and lifestyle changes can impact your fitness age.

update your step count.
My stress level does not appear
Before the watch can detect your stress level, wrist-based heart rate monitoring must be turned on.
The watch samples your heart rate variability throughout the day during periods of inactivity to determine your
stress level. The watch does not determine your stress level during timed activities.
If dashes appear instead of your stress level, be still, and wait while the watch measures your heart rate
variability.
My intensity minutes are flashing
When you exercise at an intensity level that qualifies toward your intensity minutes goal, the intensity minutes
flash.
Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data
If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try these tips.
• Clean and dry your arm before putting on the watch.
• Avoid wearing sunscreen, lotion, and insect repellent under the watch.
• Avoid scratching the heart rate sensor on the back of the watch.
• Wear the watch above your wrist bone. The watch should be snug but comfortable.
• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes and get a heart rate reading before starting your activity.
NOTE: In cold environments, warm up indoors.
• Rinse the watch with fresh water after each workout.
Tips for Improved Body Battery Data
• For more accurate results, wear the watch while sleeping.
• Good sleep charges your Body Battery.
• Strenuous activity and high stress can cause your Body Battery to drain more quickly.
• Food intake, as well as stimulants like caffeine, has no impact on your Body Battery.

Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and improve your fitness by understanding and applying
these principles.
• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve cardiovascular capacity and strength.
If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table (Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page34) to
determine the best heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms
and health centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate. The default maximum heart rate is
220 minus your age.
About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their cardiovascular strength and improve their
level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted
heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are
calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.
