Heart rate measurement for a workout
During a workout, the device displays your real-time heart rate and heart rate zone, and
notifies you when your heart rate exceeds the upper limit. For better training results, you are
advised to do a workout based on your heart rate zone.
•
Heart rate zones can be calculated based on the maximum heart rate percentage or HRR
percentage. To choose the calculation method, open the Health app, go to Me > Settings >
Workout settings > Exercise heart rate settings and set HEART RATE ZONES to
Maximum heart rate percentage or HRR percentage.
•
Heart rate measurement during a workout: You can view the real-time heart rate on the
device when you start a workout.
•
After completing your workout, you can check your average heart rate, maximum
heart rate, and heart rate zone on the workout results screen.
•
Your heart rate will not be displayed if you remove the device from your wrist during
the workout. However, it will continue to search for your heart rate signal for a while.
The measurement will resume once you put the device back on.
Heart rate limit and zones
During a workout, if your heart rate exceeds the upper limit for more than 1 minute, the
device will vibrate once and display a message indicating that your heart rate is too high
until your heart rate drops below the upper limit or you swipe right on the screen to clear the
message.
Perform the following to set a heart rate upper limit:
•
iOS users: Open the Health app, go to Me > Settings > Exercise heart rate settings,

suitable for you.
•
HarmonyOS/Android users: Open the Health app, go to Me > Settings > Workout settings
> Exercise heart rate settings, touch Heart rate limit, and set an upper limit that is
suitable for you.
Heart rate alerts are only available during workouts and are not generated during daily
monitoring.

If you aren't resting or didn't wake up within the last 30 minutes and your heart rate stays

letting you know that your heart rate is too high. You can swipe right on the screen or press
