Workout

• Workouts allow you to capture all those exercise sessions, with a huge amount of key features like customised metrics, heart rate zone alerts, music player and even sending your live workout view to your iPhone while you train

• Ensure you also review the iPhone Workouts section to get the most out of your Workouts

Starting a Workout

• Tap Workouts from the menu and select Start when ready to see a list of workouts available, this list includes over 100+ outdoor and indoor activities to select from.

• The workouts list will show your favourites at the top of the list so you can quickly get into your regular sessions. To add a new favourite, simply select the 'Fave' option and a yellow star will highlight it for next time

Starting Splits & GPS

• Some workouts such as running, walking and cycling will prompt you for splits and GPS at the start of a workout

• Select your preferred auto split which will tell the Watch to provide a haptic vibration at that interval, for example, every 1km I get a vibration with the current speed for that split. Very handy for track runners or sprint work

• To ensure accuracy, GPS will first lock your position so that you can be confident your GPS stats are correct from start to end. This may take anywhere from 1 to 20 secs depending on your surroundings. You can skip this step if not required

Main View (Workouts)

• The main view is your primary screen when working out. Tap the HR gauge or boxes to change metrics, there are a lot of options

• For those looking to set countdown timers, maybe for gym sessions or timing rest intervals, tap the duration widget (on the bottom right) and you will see 2 countdown timers appear, tap these widgets to setup with your timer preference. When each countdown expires you will receive a haptic vibration.

• You can activate either timer by spinning the crown upwards to start timer 1, or spinning downwards to start timer 2.

Control View (Workouts)

• Swipe left to right from the Main view and you will open the Control view which has 5 great functions

Heart Rate Alerts

• Alerts - this lets you set heart rate alerts when exercising. If Zonal is toggled on, you will receive haptic vibrations each time you enter a new HR zone. If Zonal is off, you can elect a minimum and maximum heart rate % (see below). Setting up HR alerts on the Watch means it is much easier than trying to update each time on your iPhone, as may like different zones for different activities. The zones setup will be remembered for your next session

Lock Button

• Lock - various high intensity workouts or water based activities are better with a lock function, so users can apply a lock to any session now. Use the crown spin to unlock

Taking Notes

• Notes - unique to HeartWatch is the ability to record a note during a workout. Tap the microphone button to open the notes view, which will stamp your HR and the note at that point and time in the workout (see below)

End Workout

• End - to finish a workout, swipe to the left to open the menu options, tap the big red rectangle button. Alternatively, you can press and hold firmly until you feel a bump anywhere on the workout screens. This will open options to Save, Resume, Discard or perform a 2 minute Recovery

• Note - if performing an indoor cycle session you will see a distance input option on Save. This is great for recording your distance. If using GymKit, it will also link the distance from the native Apple workouts indoor cycle.

Recovery

• Recovery - you can elect to start a 2 minute recovery and then it will automatically save the workout as normal. So you have the option to perform the recovery or just end/save the workout. Recovery is a great feature for monitoring pulse drop over a controlled time, a good indicator of fitness. Just be sure to sit or rest each time for an accurate measure.

• Note your heart rate has to be slightly elevated to perform a 2min recovery reading, your watch will notify you if too low to record a measurement.

• A recovery star rating will show, this is dependant on your gender and age. Refer to the Workouts section to discover more about the recovery ratings.

Music View (Workouts)

• From the Main view, swipe right to left to open the Music player. If you have an account with an compatible music stream like Apple Music, you will be able to listen and control the volume and tracks all from the same app
