- Nightly Skin Temperature - skin temperature measurement lets you track body temperature variations during sleep. The temperature is recorded from the skin surface at the wrist while you sleep. It is then compared with your temperature over the last 28 days to show the deviation from the usual range.
- Energy Sources - see which energy sources your body draws on during training. Broken down into fats, carbohydrates and proteins for each session - illustrated as a percentage of total calorie consumption during the workout. You can find out which energy source is dominant when exercising at a specific intensity. You can also notice how, during a long workout, the main energy source changes from one type to another.
