Earning Intensity Minutes

Your fēnix 5X device calculates intensity minutes by comparing

your heart rate data during an activity to your average resting

heart rate. If heart rate is turned off, the device calculates

moderate intensity minutes by analyzing your steps per minute.

• Start a timed activity for the most accurate calculation of

intensity minutes.

• Exercise for at least 10 consecutive minutes at a moderate or

vigorous intensity level.

Garmin Move IQ

™

Events

The Move IQ feature automatically detects activity patterns,

such as walking, running, biking, swimming, and elliptical

training, for at least 10 minutes. You can view the event type

detail and accuracy, you can record a timed activity on your

device.
