I did get Cardio Fitness feature to work, but only after a week of continuous use. However, I must say that I am deeply disappointed by it, as it is far, very very far, from giving you even a fair estimate of your VO2 max. I've been comparing my wife's readings to mine, and she is consistently above average and I, no matter how much I'm improving, it keeps putting me below average 😅. And before you say, "Oh, you're just jealous," let me give you the facts so you can understand my disappointment. My wife never exercises, and she cannot "walk" a mile without overexerting herself, how could it be possible that her reading is above average when she's clearly not –– this is the main reason we bought ourselves the watches, as motivation for her to start exercising. I, on the other hand, have been exercising consistently for the past 2 years; I run 3 miles three to four times a week followed by 30 minutes of high intensity interval training (HIIT) each time, aimed to improve my VO2 max, and I train BJJ four to five times a week. However, my reading keeps putting me below average and it's going even lower, the stronger I feel –– It just doesn't make sense. We both look at the results and laugh, mostly her 😅
We carefully checked all calibration settings, including DOB, sex, weight, and height for both of us, and it everything seems to be right.
