The time you need to be active during the day to reach your activity goal depends on the level you have chosen and the intensity of your activities. Meet your goal faster with more intense activities or stay active at a slightly more moderate pace throughout the day. Age and gender also affect the intensity you need to reach your activity goal. The younger you are, the more intense your activity needs to be.

ACTIVITY DATA

M400 gradually fills up an activity bar to indicate your progress towards your daily goal. When the bar is full, you've reached your goal. You can view the activity bar in Today's activity and in time view (change the watch face by pressing and holding UP).

In Today's activity you can see how active your day has been so far and get guidance on how to reach you goal.

Activity

Active time: Active time tells you the cumulative time of body movements that benefit your health.

Calories: Shows how many calories you've burned through training, activity and BMR (Basal

metabolic rate: the minimum metabolic activity required to maintain life).

Steps: Steps you've taken so far. The amount and type of body movements are registered and turned into an estimation of steps.

To go: Your M400 gives you options for reaching your daily activity goal. It tells you how much longer you need to be active if you choose low, medium or high intensity activities. You have one goal, but a number of ways to achieve it. The daily activity goal can be reached at low, medium or high intensities. In the M400, 'up' means low intensity, 'walking' means medium intensity, and 'jogging' means high
