3.5 Measuring heart rate during a workout

Your band displays your real-time heart rate during a workout.
After you start a workout (not including Pool swim mode), swipe on the band screen to check
your heart rate and heart rate interval. The displayed heart rate is updated every 5 seconds.
You can set a heart rate warning and interval (calculated by maximum heart rate percentage or
HRR percentage) on your band. During the workout, if your heart rate exceeds the value that
you have set in the Huawei Health app ("220 – your age" by default), your band will vibrate
to notify you. Touch the Home key or swipe right on the screen to turn off the heart rate
alarm.
After completing your workout, you can check your average heart rate, maximum heart rate,
and heart rate interval on the workout results screen.
You can view graphs that show changes in heart rate, maximum heart rate, and average heart
rate for each workout, on the workout record screen in the Huawei Health app.
