Step Goal
Your watch creates a daily step goal automatically, based on your previous activity levels. As you move during the day, the watch records your progress 1 toward your daily goal 2 . Your watch begins with a default goal of 7,500 steps per day.

If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can disable it and set a personalized step goal on your Garmin Connect account (Activity Tracking Settings, page 28).
Move Bar
Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable metabolic state changes. The move bar reminds you to keep moving. After one hour of inactivity, the move bar 1 appears. Additional segments 2 appear after every 15 minutes of inactivity.

You can reset the move bar by walking a short distance, or you can customize the movement alerts (Customizing Move Alerts, page 25).
Intensity Minutes
To improve your health, organizations such as the World Health Organization recommend at least 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity activity, such as brisk walking, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous intensity activity, such as running.
The watch monitors your activity intensity and tracks your time spent participating in moderate to vigorous intensity activities (heart rate data is required to quantify vigorous intensity). The watch adds the amount of moderate activity  minutes with the amount of vigorous activity minutes. Your total vigorous intensity minutes are doubled when added.
Earning Intensity Minutes
Your Lily 2 watch calculates intensity minutes by comparing your heart rate data to your average resting heart rate. If heart rate is turned off, the watch calculates moderate intensity minutes by analyzing your steps per minute.

• Start a timed activity for the most accurate calculation of intensity minutes.

Viewing Your Fitness Age
Before the watch can calculate an accurate fitness age, you must complete the user profile setup in the Garmin Connect app.

Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and improve your fitness by understanding and applying these principles.

• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve cardiovascular capacity and strength.

If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table (Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page 36) to determine the best heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate. The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.

About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.

Heart Rate Zone Calculations

Zone| % Heart of Maximum Hea Rate| Perceived Exertion| Benefits
---|---|---|---
1| 150-60%| I Relaxed, easy pace, rhythmic breathing| Beginning-level aerobic training, reduces stress
12| 160-700/0| Comfortable pace, slightly deeper breathing, conversation possible| Basic cardiovascular training, good recovery pace
3| 170-80 cY0| Moderate pace, more difficult to hold conversation| Improved aerobic capacity, optimal cardiovascular training
14| 180-90Fast %| pace and a bit uncomfortable, breathing forceful| Improved anaerobic capacity and threshold, improved speed
5| 90-100%
1| Sprinting pace, unsustainable for long period of time, labored breathing| Anaerobic and muscular endurance, increased power

VO2 Max. Standard Ratings
These tables include standardized classifications for VO2 max. estimates by age and sex.
NOTE : VO2 max. is not available when the watch is in wheelchair mode.
