I like this visualization! I'm not doing a kind of training these days where it would be useful for me, but I wish I'd known about something like it when I was.

Do you support Apple watch? I never actually targeted that or owned one (I like a much more stylish smartwatch!) and thus don't immediately know how to spot that integration on an App Store detail page, hence the need to ask. But I get the sense a lot of folks who do train seriously like to do that with an Apple watch as primary or only device, and I could see enough utility in getting something like this kind of view in effective real time, to make the integration possibly worth considering. (If not already present! Or who knows, maybe Apple watches natively do that and now I know what the "heart rate push" feature on mine is imitating... ;)
- bryan0 2y agoThe Apple watch Workout app has a heart zone view while you're working out, but I don't think it has a workaround summary of how much time you spent in each zone.
- vitaflo 2y agoThat gets pushed to the Fitness app on iOS. It breaks down the entire workout.
- ellisv 2y agoBut unfortunately Fitness and Health don’t summarize HR zone data across workouts
- tobias5 2y agoThe app is not just getting heart rate measurements from workouts but in general. But as mentioned the interesting thing is that it's doing a sum per day, week, month, last 7 days and last 30 days
- IncreasePosts 2y agoHeart rate zone training is always useful for general health. Unless you have an ultra terminal illness you would probably benefit from some zone 2 training...basically just a brisk walk(where you can still have a conversation, but you feel like you're putting in more work than sitting on a couch, probably around 125 bpm) for 45 mins 2 or 3x a week will greatly improve the heart health for most people.
- throwanem 2y agoI no longer do HIIT of any type, but do frequently leave my couch and indeed my home. I wear a smartwatch that reads pretty close to my real heart rate and is, if not ideally accurate, then at least sufficiently precise. More than that these days would be wasted on me. But I appreciate your motivation in commenting, and confide many here might benefit by your good effort.
