Using the Move Alert
Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable
metabolic state changes. The move alert reminds you to keep
moving. After one hour of inactivity, Move! and the red bar
appear. Additional segments appear after every 15 minutes of
inactivity. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible tones are
turned on (System Settings, page 23).
Go for a short walk (at least a couple of minutes) to reset the
move alert.

While you are sleeping, the device monitors your movement.
Sleep statistics include total hours of sleep, sleep levels, and

user settings on your Garmin Connect account. You can view
your sleep statistics on your Garmin Connect account.

Intensity Minutes
To improve your health, organizations such as the U.S. Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Heart
Association
®
, and 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 device 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). You
can work toward achieving your weekly intensity minutes goal by
participating in at least 10 consecutive minutes of moderate to
vigorous intensity activities. The device 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 fēnix 5/5S 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.

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