Active Zones and Brisk Walking

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi everyone,

 

i use a Sense, and I am unable to get into the fat burning/cardio heart rate zones during a brisk walk. I am walking as fast as I possibly can and it still won’t get there. Any idea why this Kay be happening? I keep seeing people post their walks and they get tons of active zone minutes but not me. I would be grateful for any help.

I never gotten it to give me any zones during a walk either. I carry weights and wear a weighted vest. To get any zones I go out to this place that has ten flights of stairs to climb i get into the zones then. I also only get into zones if I am running and exercising if it just running nothing no zones but if I do work out during my runs I drop and do navy seals get up run for 30 seconds drop and do more navy seals I get a lot of zones this way. I am learning this watch is not all it cracked up to be terrible  support in most cases not all extremely hard to get in contact and they usually just give ya the run around tons of issue with the device and little to any feed back from the developers. This is sad I was so impressed with my friends iconic and other charge 4 watches i seen how the fitbit app locked seem like the best app for showing info. But with the sense I do not feel the watch does anything as advertised in any way what so ever.  I look at it like this I made a huge mistake buying this watch i should of forked out several more hundreds of dollars i paid 330 for this should spent 500 on the suntoo or something else maybe the apple watch idk I truelly feel jipped and just waiting for the band to break and it falls off breaks glass or something or it just stops working i read horror stories every day about this watch and i just pray mine keeps working I am Dirt Bag Poor so this was a very expensive watch for me I keep thinking i need to return this asap before my 90 days are up at costco but i keep foolishly hoping this company will fix it own issue I really ain't seeing that happen instead I see customer service and support acting like this is a video game and they can just crap on their customers. I been trying to stay positive starting to get to hard to stay positive. So from my understanding majority of this device runs through algorithms that try to mimic the real deal thus why it seems to have so many issue with actaull legit real data. Walking and running is a guesstimation based on a few factors it get close and is probably the most accurate thing in the watch as far as calorie burn distance  heart rate monitoring if you are exercising is all based on algorithms that don't seem to work as advertised I even hear all this story of people paying for the protection plan only to be told sorry go buy another watch wtf really just sad way to do business & honestly thos that paid for that service should probably take this company to court with answers like that I hate trying to save up more money just to return this watch and pay more for something else that i aint sure is worth the money.
