ACTIVITY GOAL
Daily activity goal
is a good way to find out how active you really are in your everyday life. Choose your typical activity level
from three options and see how active you need to be to reach your daily activity goal.
The time you need to complete your daily activity goal depends on the level you have chosen and the intensity of your
activities. Age and gender also affect the intensity you need to reach your daily activity goal.
Level 1
If your day includes only a little sports and a lot of sitting, commuting by car or public transport and so on, we recommend
you pick this activity level.
Level 2
If you spend most of your day on your feet, perhaps due to the type of work you do or your daily chores, this is the right
activity level for you.
Level 3
If your work is physically demanding, you're into sports or otherwise tend to be on the move and active, this is the activity
level for you.

recommendation for your age group (eight hours for adults from 18 to 64 years). If you feel that eight hours of sleep is too
much or too little for you, we recommend you adjust your preferred sleep time to meet your individual needs. By doing this,
you'll get accurate feedback on how much sleep you got in comparison to your preferred sleep time.
