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 quatix 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.

Sleep Tracking

While you are sleeping, the watch automatically detects your sleep and monitors your movement during your 
normal sleep hours. You can set your normal sleep hours in the user settings on your Garmin Connect account. 
Sleep statistics include total hours of sleep, sleep stages, sleep movement, and sleep score. You can view your 
sleep statistics on your Garmin Connect account.
NOTE: Naps are not added to your sleep statistics. You can use do not disturb mode to turn off notifications 
and alerts, with the exception of alarms (

Controls, page 62

).

Using Automated Sleep Tracking

1 Wear your device while sleeping.
2 Upload your sleep tracking data to the Garmin Connect site (

Using the Garmin Connect App, page 85

).

You can view your sleep statistics on your Garmin Connect account.
