On the goal screen, swipe left and right to choose a calorie, time, or distance goal (or no goal),
then turn the Digital Crown or tap + / – to set. When you’re ready to go, tap Start. If you’re
measuring calories or time, you can leave iPhone behind and exercise with just Apple Watch. But
for the most accurate distance measurements outdoors, take iPhone along.
Tap to adjust
your goal.
Note: Outdoor and Indoor Walk/Run/Cycle are distinct workouts because Apple Watch calculates
the calorie burn dierently for each. For indoor workouts, Apple Watch relies mainly on your
heart rate readings for calorie estimates, but for outdoor workouts, Apple Watch works in
conjunction with iPhone (which has GPS) to calculate speed and distance. Those values, along
with your heart rate, are used to estimate the number of calories burned.
Check your progress. Check the completion ring during your workout for a quick indication
of your progress. Swipe on the lower half of the screen to review elapsed time, average pace,
distance covered, calories consumed, and heart rate. Instead of viewing the progress rings, you
can choose to see your distance, calorie, or time values numerically. Open the Apple Watch app
on iPhone, tap My Watch, then turn on Workout > Show Goal Metric.
The ring gives you a
quick indication of your
workout progress.
Pause and resume. To pause the workout at any time, rmly press the display, then tap Pause. To
continue, rmly press the display again, then tap Resume.
Conserve power during a long workout. You can save power by disabling the heart rate
sensor during long walking and running workouts. Your calorie burn estimates might not be as
accurate. Open the Apple Watch app on iPhone, tap My Watch, then turn on Workout > Power
Saving Mode.
End the workout. When you reach your goal, you’ll hear an alarm. If you’re feeling good and
want to continue, go ahead—Apple Watch continues to collect data until you tell it to stop.
When you’re ready, rmly press the display, then tap End. Turn the Digital Crown to scroll through
the results summary, then tap Save or Discard at the bottom.
Review your workout history. Open the Activity app on iPhone, then tap a date. Scroll down to
see your workouts listed below the Move/Stand/Exercise summaries. Swipe left on a workout to
see details for it.
