3. YOUR DAILY ACTIVITY

Activity

Wear the FA20 on your wrist to measure your physical activity

continuously 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All you need to do is

wear it, no button presses required. The FA20 gives you continuous

feedback on your daily activity, and makes monitoring your activity

level easy.

To promote and maintain health, regular physical activity - such as

brisk walking - should be performed at least 30 minutes every day or

most days of the week.

The health benefits are, for instance, better cardiovascular condition

and blood pressure control, and improved glucose tolerance and

bone health. Increased physical activity also helps control weight

and promote psychological well-being.
