How it works
Open Pulse Rate each morning and take a 60-second resting measurement. A steadily declining resting HR over weeks is a reliable indicator of improving aerobic base fitness.
After a moderate-intensity run or bike session, log your effort level and average heart rate. Pulse Rate stores each session for trend analysis.
Heart Rate Variability is closely correlated with aerobic fitness. A rising HRV trend over 4–8 weeks signals improved cardiovascular efficiency.
Import workout data from Apple Health to combine your activity history with camera-based HR readings for a fuller picture of your fitness trajectory.
