Wearing
- Wear the watch strap not too tight or too loose, and leave enough space for the skin to breathe. This makes you feel comfortable and allows the sensor to function.
- When measuring blood oxygen, wear the watch correctly. Avoid wearing the watch on the wrist joint, keep your arm flat, maintain comfortable (appropriately tight) fitting between the watch and the wrist skin, and keep your arm still throughout the measurement process. When affected by external factors (arm sag, arm sway, arm hair, tattoo, etc.), the measurement result may be inaccurate or the measurement may fail with no output.

Physical indicators for workouts
The device provides a variety of physical indicators for workouts. You can use
evaluation scores as a reference for your workouts. These indicators can be
viewed in workout records or the Workout status app, including current
training load, total recovery time, VO₂ Max, and training effect.
You can find a detailed explanation of current training load, full recovery
time, and VO₂ Max in the Workout Status app.
TE
Training Effect (TE) is an indicator for measuring the effect of a workout on
improving the aerobic capacity. When you work out while wearing the device,
the TE score starting from 0.0 increases as the workout progresses. The TE
score ranges from 0.0 to 5.0, and different score ranges indicate different
effects. A higher TE score indicates a greater workout intensity. It signifies
a higher body load, but a better TE.
However, you should consider whether your body load is too high when the TE
score reaches 5.0.
Aerobic TE Score | Effect on Improving Aerobic Capacity |
---|---|
0.0-0.9 | This workout has no effect on improving aerobic capacity. |
1.0-1.9 | This workout helps improve endurance and is ideal for post-workout |
recovery training.
2.0-2.9| This workout helps maintain aerobic capacity.
3.0-3.9| This workout significantly helps improve aerobic capacity.
4.0-4.9| This workout remarkably improves heart-lung ability and aerobic
capacity.
5| Post-workout recovery is required for non-athlete users.
Anaerobic TE Score| Effect on Improving Anaerobic Capacity
---|---
0.0-0.9| This workout has no effect on improving anaerobic capacity.
1.0-1.9| This workout has a slight effect on improving anaerobic capacity.
2.0-2.9| This workout helps maintain anaerobic capacity.
3.0-3.9| This workout significantly helps improve anaerobic capacity.
4.0-4.9| This workout has a significant effect on improving anaerobic
capacity.
5| Post-workout recovery is required for non-athlete users.
The TE score is evaluated based on your profile, as well as your heart rate and speed during your workout. A low TE score does not indicate a problem during your workout, but instead signifies that the workout is too easy and has no significant effect on improving aerobic capacity (for example, a low TE score for 1-hour of jogging).
How to obtain the data:
Once a workout for which heart rate data is monitored ends, the watch displays
the TE score of the workout and provides related comments or suggestions. You
can also review the TE score of each workout record in the future.
Workout status
Workout status includes training load, full recovery time, and VO₂ Max. The device calculates these metrics based on your personal information and data generated during the workout. As you wear the device and data accumulates over time, we will gain a better insight into your physical and workout data, and the accuracy of evaluation gradually improves.
Maximum oxygen uptake (VO₂ Max)
VO₂ Max indicates the amount of oxygen consumed by the body during
maximumintensity workouts, which is an important indicator of the body’s
aerobic capacity. As one of the most important reference indicator for
endurance athletes, high-level VO₂ Max is the prerequisite for high-level
aerobic capacity.
VO₂ Max is a relatively personal indicator, which has different reference
standards for users with different genders and in different age groups. The
device evaluates your athletic capacity based on your profile and the heart
rate and speed during your workouts. Also, VO₂ Max changes with your athletic
capacity. However, everyone has a VO₂ Max value, which varies by individual
body conditions.
VO₂ Max values map to seven athletic ability levels: Novice, Elementary,
Ordinary, Medium, Good, Excellent, and Superior.
How to obtain the data:
- Correctly enter your profile in the app.
- Run outdoors for at least 10 minutes when wearing the device and ensure that your heart rate reaches 75% of the maximum heart rate.
How to view the data:
You can view the current VO₂ Max in the watch’s workout status app. You can
also view the VO₂ Max history and variation trends in the app.
Training Load
he training load score is calculated based on your Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen
Consumption (EPOC). A higher score indicates a longer workout time and a
greater workout intensity. The training load score is calculated as your total
training load over the past 7 days, which represents the burden brought to
your body from the recent workouts.
There are three training load ranges: low, moderate, and high.
If the training load is low, it will not help much to improve your athletic
ability.
However, if the training load is relatively high or too high, you may feel too
tired, meaning it is not conducive to effectively improving your ability and
may also cause injury risks. If you want to continuously improve your athletic
ability within a tolerance range, it is recommended that you keep the training
load score within the moderate range.
The moderate range of the training load score depends on your recent and long-
term workout data, and will become increasingly accurate as you use it.

Activities and health
Readiness
Just like the energy consumption and charging of batteries, the human body
also needs to balance daytime activities and night sleep to control the body’s
energy and ensure a day’s battery life. Readiness is one such indicator,
telling you each morning whether your body is charged and ready for the new
day. Based on data such as heart rate, stress, sleep, HRV, breathing quality,
temperature, and activity, it measures fatigue and recovery status, and
provides personalized interpretation and health advice.
A strong expert team, core member clinical psychologist Dr. Lisa Meltzer, has
more than 22 years of clinical teaching and research experience in the field
of sleep health.
The expert knowledge base built for Readiness has 680+ professional analysis
and interpretation, which can more accurately match the user’s status, making
it easier for users to understand the meaning behind the score and get more
practical analysis guidance.
-
You will receive your readiness score every morning, so you can quickly understand your readiness today.
In addition to the score, Readiness will also give the analysis and interpretation -
written by experts and the detailed data of each sub-item status. Let you clearly understand the main reasons that affect your readiness today, the measures to deal with this state, and the suggestions for work and rest, for users’ reference to adjust the arrangement of the next day.
-
You can also view the score change in the last 7 days, the highest, lowest and average score.
Readiness suggestion
Readiness can also provide timely health advice based on the user’s current
