Active Zone Minutes counts your time spent in any heart-pumping activity. Your default goal is based on the widely accepted recommendation of 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week.

With Active Zone Minutes, the harder you work, the more credit you get. 1 minute in the fat burn zone earns 1 Active Zone Minute, and 1 minute in the cardio or peak zone earns 2 Active Zone Minutes. You put in the work, and we’ll do the math!

When you’re in an exercise mode, your Fitbit tracker or watch buzzes to let you know when you enter and exit a heart rate zone: 1 buzz for the fat burn zone, 2 buzzes for the cardio zone and 3 buzzes for the peak zone.
