You can see your current heart rate (BPM) at any time, from either the clock screen or
while running or exercising.

From the clock screen on your Electron, scroll to the heart rate screen. By default, the
appearance of the heart changes depending on your heart rate zone:
Below Zone Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3
Heart rate zones are calculated using the maximum recommended heart rate for your
age. If you're below Zone 1, your resting heart rate is between 30 to 60 BPM, or 0 to
49% of your maximum. Zone 1 represents fat burn, when your heart rate is at 50 to
69% of maximum. Zone 2 is cardio, where your heart rate is at 70 to 84% of maximum.
Lastly, Zone 3 is performance, meaning your heart rate is at 85 to 100% of maximum.
Instead of using these default zones, you have the option of configuring a custom
heart rate zone. Simply log in to your dashboard and click the gear icon on the upper
right. In the Body Info section on the Settings page you can select the minimum and
maximum heart rate for your custom zone.
