seven-day average resting heart rate.
Your current stress level. The device measures your heart
rate variability while you are inactive to estimate your stress
level. A lower number indicates a lower stress level.
Auto Goal
Your device creates a daily step goal automatically, based on
your previous activity levels. As you move during the day, the
device shows your progress toward your daily goal .
If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can set a
personalized step goal 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.
Viewing the Heart Rate Graph
The heart rate graph displays your heart rate for the last hour,
your lowest heart rate in beats per minute (bpm), and your
highest heart rate during that period.

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 vívosport 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
calculation by walking briskly or running outside for 15 minutes.

Heart Rate Variability and Stress Level
Your device 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 device while sleeping.
You can sync your device with your Garmin Connect account to
view your all-day stress level, long-term trends, and additional
details.
