Apple Watch users can now view their cardio fitness levels in the Health app on iPhone, and receive a notification if it falls within the low range. According to the company, with iOS 14.3 and watchOS 7.2 software updates, people can measure low cardio fitness for dramatic long-term health benefits. Using its advanced sensors, Apple Watch now brings estimation of low cardio fitness levels from clinics directly to a user s wrist, so people have more insight into how they can improve their long-term health through daily activity, Jeff Williams, Apple s chief operating officer, said in a statement late on Monday. With watchOS 7, Apple Watch uses multiple sensors, including the optical heart sensor, GPS and the accelerometer to estimate lower levels too.
(Pocket-lint) - Apple has introduced a new fitness feature that allows Apple Watch users to track their cardio fitness levels through VO2 max measurements.
Before the release of watchOS 7.2, the Apple Watch could estimate higher levels of VO2 max, but only outdoor walks, runs, or hikes. Now, Apple Watch can determine a user s cardio fitness as they walk throughout the day, so they don t need to intensely exercise for it take and analyse their cardio fitness level.
VO2 max, or maximal oxygen uptake, is the measurement of the maximum amount of oxygen a person can use during intense exercise. It s basically a measurement used to determine the endurance of a person prior to or during the course of training, and it can be improved through physical activity.
