Logging HIIT Workouts (Tabata)

[fatbit999]

Hi

So I've just started using my Blaze which has been sat in a drawer for 2 years.  Yesterday I did a walk, great it logged automatically, but I did a tabata HIIT workout yesterday afternoon for 30 mins.

Can someone please tell me if I need to manually record this activity as I can see from my heart rate that my total exhaustion was recorded successfully and calories appeared together with Peak, Cardio and Fatburn zones.  I don't want to double account.

Thanks in advance.

I would use the Start/Stop Exercise function using workout mode

Then you can set up a custom exercise on your Dashboard and rename it once it syncs

Can you explain where this is on dashboard? I can’t figure out how to change the name.

I agree. I do think a brand promoting fitness and health does not have a HIIT function on its watch already is poor.  I’m almost 100% certain that HIIT is one of the top 3 exercises.
