This is a habit firmly anchored in our minds: good resolutions accompanying the new year. Stop spending four hours a day on Instagram, eat a more balanced diet, take control of your sleep, drink less alcohol or engage in more regular physical activity.
It is precisely on this last point that a well-used Apple Watch turns out to be a fairly effective ally.
A personal coach on the wrist
To achieve personal sporting goals, you have to start small so as not to get discouraged or worse, get injured. The Apple Watch Series 10 offers this proven method: start small.
It can help you lose 320 calories a day with 30 minutes of daily exercise while forcing you to get up at least 12 times a day, or once an hour. Enough to create gentle training routines little by little so that they become habits.
For the more seasoned, the latest version of watchOS 11 will help you track the progress of your efforts. With Training Load, the watch will analyze them over seven days compared to the past month. Apple Fitness+ also offers thousands of different exercises to view on your watch; in 4K please; also viewable on all your other devices: iPhone, iPad, and even on Apple TV.
If you sleep with your watchthe Vitals application is an excellent complement. This monitors your sleep to determine if you are ready to put on your sneakers for your series of exercises of the day. It takes into account a multitude of factors – altitude, alcohol consumption, health status – to provide you with ultra-personalized recommendations.
If you prefer to walk, the Time to Walk feature is for you. It allows you to go for a walk while listening to inspiring stories told by well-known and influential personalities. However, you will need a subscription to Apple Fitness+ to take advantage of this option, perfectly in the Apple spirit.
To highlight all these features, Apple released a short videopublished yesterday on YouTube called “Quit Quitting”. Of course, the Apple Watch Series 10 won’t turn you into Usain Bolt once it’s on your wrist, but it will have the merit of accompanying you more than adequately in your workouts.
