Huawei Philippines urges Filipinos to stay physically active indoors with its recently launched fitness watch Band 6 and its newest smart body scale, the Huawei Scale 3.
It has been a year since Filipinos were compelled to stay inside their homes in lieu of safety. Without the fresh air, wide spaces and social interactions offered by the great outdoors, it has been observed that there is a significant decrease in involvement in fitness activities, which may lead to the onset or even exacerbation of comorbidities such as hypertension.
The month of May, by virtue of Proclamation No. 1761, has been declared as Hypertension Awareness Month in the Philippines to raise consciousness and to encourage Filipinos to be more proactive in mitigating the risks of this disease. In order to diminish the complications caused by hypertension, medical societies worldwide encourage people to be physically active and to avoid a sedentary lifestyle.
Huawei Philippines, in a bid to urge more Filipinos to be more active, has launched a dynamic duo of fitness monitoring — the Huawei Scale 3 and Huawei Band 6! These smart health devices provide easy access to vital statistics so users and healthcare providers can keep track of their progress and can have a better assessment of what needs to be done for the user to achieve optimum physical health.
Good Health Starts from Knowing Yourself
To know where you are headed, you must first know where you are. The Huawei Scale 3 can help you identify your body composition, enabling you and your fitness consultants to gauge better how you can effectively achieve your wellness goal. One major physiological parameter that Scale 3 can assess is your Body Fat Percentage (BFP). A high body fat percentage, especially with excessive visceral fat, is a major risk factor for diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and hypertension. Regular insight into your BFP can actually be a lifesaver.
The Huawei Scale 3 can also identify other parameters such as Skeletal Muscle Mass, which is crucial for monitoring your muscle mass and muscular strength; Visceral Fat, which has to be managed to stay clear of metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases; and Body Water Percentage, which is important in monitoring hydration.
In total, the Huawei Scale 3 has 11 Body Indicators, which also include Weight, BMI, Protein, Bone Mineral Content, Fat-Free Weight, Basal Metabolic Rate, and Heart Rate.
You can conveniently go through your stats recorded by the Huawei Scale 3 through the Huawei Health App. After the Wi-Fi connection is configured for the scale, you can also directly perform measurements without needing to open the app. The measurement data is automatically synced to the cloud. You can open the mobile app at any time to view data remotely, or connect the scale via Bluetooth on the mobile app to directly measure and view data. With its strategically designed graphs and data analytics tools, you can efficiently monitor your progress and your goals through the Huawei Health App.
Challenge Yourself to be Physically Active
Sitting is the new smoking! And with the workspace being migrated to bedrooms and living rooms, it could be inevitable for some to just sit on an office chair then lie in the bed all day. But in fighting a viral enemy, putting your health guards down may not be the best course of action.
So ease yourself of having to plan how to be physically active. The Huawei Band 6 has a panoply of features that are sure to spice up your indoor workout regimen. The Huawei Band 6’s fitness trackers, sports modes, and health monitoring tools can help you boost your performance and achieve more fitness goals.
Leading the essentials of Huawei Band 6 is its 24-hour SpO2 Monitoring capability. It’s not common knowledge that blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) is a vital indicator of a person’s fitness levels. Low SpO2 can lead to worrisome scenarios such as fatigue and increased heart rates. With Band 6, you get to regularly monitor your SpO2 levels to ensure a healthy fitness session.
If you are ready to diversify your everyday fitness routine, the Band 6 has 96 different exercise modes that can bring out the sports buff in you. The modes include common sports such as running, walking, cycling, swimming, elliptical machine, and rowing machine. In addition, the smart sensors monitor the user’s heart rate, heart rate zone, calories burned, exercise duration and other exercise data.
And to keep you on your feet, the Band 6 has 14-day battery life. It also has a 1.47-inch AMOLED FullView Display and reliable waterproof technology. The Huawei Band 6 can also connect to the Huawei Health App where you can chart your fitness journey and set goals that can push you to go forward.
The current global health challenge has brought about unprecedented levels of stress and anxiety. It has limited us in so many ways and has changed our regular dynamics drastically. What it can’t limit, however, is our commitment to ourselves and our loved ones in protecting and maintaining our wellbeing. There are many things we can’t control, but there are several things, too, that we can do to ward off the invisible enemy — one of which is being physically active.
