Earning Intensity Minutes

Your Instinct Solar device calculates intensity minutes by

comparing your heart rate data 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.

• Wear your device all day and night for the most accurate

resting heart rate.

Garmin Move IQ

™

When your movements match familiar exercise patterns, the

Move IQ feature automatically detects the event and displays it

in your timeline. The Move IQ events show activity type and

duration, but they do not appear in your activities list or

newsfeed. For more detail and accuracy, you can record a timed

activity on your device.
