Index Introduction

VO2 max is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise. It is expressed as an absolute rate in liters of oxygen per minute (L/min). To measure VO2 max, people simply run/walk on a treadmill or ride on a bike, and gradually increase the intensity until exhaustion. The greater VO2 max, the better your cardiovascular function. The more oxygen your body can consume, the more effectively your body can use it.

Index Introduction

Heart rate zone is usually used for monitoring the intensity of exercises and beneficial to draft training plans. The HR zone can be divided into 7 parts based on an individual's Heart Rate Reserve percentage (HRR %).

Index Introduction

Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) stands for the oxygen consumption when resting after exercising. Normally after exercise, the oxygen consumption will be larger than resting state. Besides decreasing Lactic acid, it is also related to the recovery of ATP-PC, carbohydrate, fat and protein.

Index Introduction

The Aerobic Training Effect means how much an individual benefits from training results after exercising. The larger the value, the better it helps cardiovascular function. Through HR monitoring during exercise, it keeps accumulating the intensity of the result from Aerobic training. After a period of training, cardiovascular function becomes stronger, and it will need stronger exercise to reach better training effect.

Index Introduction

Anaerobic training effect refers to the benefit gained from exercises. The larger the value, the more energy the body gets from anaerobic training. Through HR monitoring and constantly gathering training results, more intensive exercise can maintain high HR rate longer and increase anaerobic training effect.

Index Introduction

Training Load is the total training result for the last week. The amount of training means the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) will be collected by HR data during exercise. The larger training load represents much more exercise in the last week. However, excessive training load may backfire on your physical condition.

Index Introduction

Recovery Time is the time of duration that an individual's energy can be recharged to 100%.

Index Introduction

PAI will calculate the activity level of the past week. Any daily activities or professional sports that speed up HR will have the chance to increase PAI. It collects HR information during the activity. The longer the high HR is kept, the larger PAI will be output.

A paper issued by The American Journal of Medicine indicates that weekly PAI ≥100 can decrease the cardiovascular mortality rate. In conclusion, regardless of age, it can decrease 17% for men and 23% cardiovascular mortality rate for women.

Index Introduction

The body consumes basal metabolic calories at any time. With the increased intensity of activities, the body will also increase the need for energy and burn more calories. According to different conditions, here are 3 types of calories:

- Basal metabolic calories: estimated by personal physiological data.

- Heart rate calories: estimated by heart rate and personal physiological data.

- Metabolic equivalent calories: estimated by the amount of activities and personal physiological data.

Index Introduction

Sleep monitoring is to analyze all night activity scores and HR of a person. There are 4 stages of sleep: light sleep, deep sleep, rapid eye movement (REM) and awake. Activity level during sleeping is also used for analyzing sleep and awaken, then outputs the total duration of sleep. It is useful for understanding the relation between daily hobbies and sleeping quality by tracking total sleeping hours and stages everyday.
