3.2 Workout status

The Workout status app on your watch can demonstrate your fitness status variation and your training load from the last seven days. You can review and modify your current workout plan with the help of this app. The app can also demonstrate your recovery time, high efficiency levels, peak status, training interruptions, and low efficiency levels. On the Training load screen, you can view your training load from the last seven days. Training load is classified as High, Low, or Optimal, and you can determine your level based on your fitness status.

The Workout status app mainly tracks your training load and VO2max variations.

The watch collects your training load from workout modes which track your heart rate, such as running, walking, cycling, and climbing, and collects your VO2max value when you start

an outdoor running workout. The watch cannot display your workout status if it has not collected any VO2max values. VO2max variation will be displayed only if you use Outdoor

Run mode at least once a week (at least 2.4 kilometers within 20 minutes for each workout), and the watch collects at least two VO2max values with an interval of more than a week.

4.5 Enabling HUAWEI TruSleep™

4.1 Monitoring your heart rate

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 features an optical heart rate sensor, which can monitor and record your heart rate all day. To use this feature, you need to enable Continuous heart rate in the Huawei Health app.

When the watch detects that the user has fallen sleep, it will switch to use the non-visible light to measure your heart rate, letting you have a good nights sleep.

Heart rate measurement

1. Keep your arm still and wear your watch correctly.

2. From the home screen press the Up button, swipe until you find Heart rate. Touch Heart rate. The watch will then measure your current heart rate.

3. To pause the heart rate measurement, swipe right on your watch screen.

It usually takes approximately 6 to 10 seconds to display the first measurement value (1 to 2 seconds if Continuous heart rate monitoring is enabled in the Huawei Health app and MONITORING MODE is set to Real-time), and the data updates every 5 seconds afterward. A complete measurement takes approximately 45 seconds to complete.

Page 35

HUAWEI WATCH GT2 User Guide-(01,en-us)

4 Health and fitness

To guarantee a more accurate heart rate measurement, wear the watch correctly and ensure the strap is fastened. Make sure that your watch is secure on your wrist. Ensure that the watch body is in direct contact with your skin without any obstructions.

Heart rate measurement during an individual workout

During a workout, your watch can display your real-time heart rate and heart rate zone, and notify you when your heart rate exceeds the upper limit. For the best training result, you are advised to choose a workout based on your heart rate zone.

l Setting the heart rate zone calculation method

The heart rate interval can be calculated based on the maximum heart rate percentage or HRR percentage. To set the heart rate interval calculation method, open the Huawei Health app, go to Me > Settings > Heart rate limit and zones and set Calculation method to either Maximum heart rate percentage or HRR percentage.

l If you select Maximum heart rate percentage as the calculation method, the heart rate zone

for different types of workout activities (Extreme, Anaerobic, Aerobic, Fat-burning, and Warm-up) is calculated based on your maximum heart rate ("220 – your age" by default). Heart rate = Maximum heart rate x Maximum heart rate percentage.

l If you select HRR percentage as the calculation method, the heart rate interval for different

types of workout activities (Advanced anaerobic, Basic anaerobic, Lactic acid, Advanced aerobic, and Basic aerobic) is calculated based on your heart rate reserve (HRmax - HRrest). Heart rate = Heart rate reserve x Heart rate reserve percentage + Resting heart rate.

l The heart rate zone calculation methods while you are running are not affected by the settings

in the Huawei Health app. For most running courses, HRR percentage is selected by default.

Your watch will display different colors when your heart rate reaches corresponding zones during a workout. The following figure shows how heart rate is displayed during an outdoor run.

b. The heart rate measurement will be performed every 10 minutes for moderate-

intensity activities (such as when you are walking).

c. The heart rate measurement will be performed once a second for high-intensity

activities (such as when you are running) and it takes 6 to 10 seconds to display the first heart rate value, though this may vary between individuals).

l Real-time mode: The heart rate measurement will be performed once a second for any

type of activity intensity.

Page 37

When this feature is enabled, the watch will continuously measure your real-time heart rate. You can view graphs for your heart rate in the Huawei Health app.

Using Real-time mode will increase the power consumption of your watch while Smart mode will adjust the heart rate measurement interval based on the intensity of your activity, thus reducing power consumption.

Resting heart rate measurement

Resting heart rate refers to the heart rate when it is measured in a quiet and relaxed environment when you are awake. It is a general indicator of cardiovascular health.

The best time to measure your resting heart rate is immediately after you have woken up in the morning. Your actual resting heart rate may not be displayed or accurately measured if your heart rate was measured at the wrong time.

To automatically measure your heart rate, enable Continuous heart rate monitoring in the Huawei Health app.

If "--" is displayed as the resting heart rate reading, it indicates that your watch was unable to measure your resting heart rate. In this case, ensure that you measure your resting heart rate in a quiet and relaxed environment when you are awake. It is recommended that you measure your resting heart rate immediately after you wake up in the morning for the most accurate result.

4 Health and fitness

If you disable Continuous heart rate monitoring after checking your resting heart rate, the resting heart rate displayed in the Huawei Health app will remain the same.

Heart rate warning

After you start a workout using your watch, your watch will vibrate to alert you that your heart rate value has exceeded the upper limit for more than 10 seconds. To view and configure your heart rate limit, perform the following:

Open the Huawei Health app, go to Me > Settings > Heart rate limit and zones and select your desired heart rate limit. The following figure shows how to set your heart rate limit:

monitoring.

To enable High heart rate alerts for your resting heart rate, open the Huawei Health app, touch Devices then your device, go to Continuous heart rate monitoring > High heart rate alert, and set your heart rate upper limit. Then, touch OK. When you are not doing any exercise, you will receive an alert when your resting heart rate stays above your set limit for more than 10 minutes.

4.2 Tracking sleep

Your watch collects sleep data and identifies your sleep status when you wear it while sleeping. It can automatically detect when you fall asleep and wake up and whether you are in

Page 39

a light or deep sleep. You can sync and view your sleep data in detail in the Huawei Health app.

Your watch measures your sleep data from 20:00 to 20:00 on the following day (24 hours in total). For example, if you sleep for 11 hours from 19:00 to 06:00, your watch will count the length of time you slept before 20:00 during the first day as well as the rest of the time that you were asleep during the second day.

From the home screen press the Up button, swipe until you find Sleep, then touch it and swipe up on the screen to view your nighttime sleep duration and nap duration. Your daytime sleep duration is displayed under Naps.

You can enable HUAWEI TruSleep TM in the Huawei Health app.

After you enable HUAWEI TruSleepTM, your watch will collect your sleep data, detect when you fall asleep, wake up, and whether you are in a light, deep, or REM sleep, and identify the times when you wake up and your breathing quality to provide you with a sleep quality analysis and suggestions to help you understand and improve your sleep quality.
