How To Track Hot Yoga On Apple Watch
Hot yoga is a popular form of exercise that involves practicing yoga in a heated room. It can be challenging to track your progress during hot yoga, but with an Apple Watch, you can easily monitor your heart rate, calories burned, and more. Here are some tips on how to track hot yoga on your Apple Watch:
1. Choose the Right Workout
When you start your workout on your Apple Watch, make sure to choose the right activity. Selecting “Yoga” will track your heart rate and calories burned, but if you want more accurate tracking, choose “Other” and label it as “Hot Yoga.”
2. Enable Heart Rate Monitoring
Hot yoga can be intense, so it's important to monitor your heart rate to ensure you're not overexerting yourself. Make sure to enable heart rate monitoring on your Apple Watch before starting your workout.
3. Use the Breathe App
The Breathe app on your Apple Watch can help you stay focused and calm during hot yoga. Use it before or after your workout to help regulate your breathing and reduce stress.
4. Set a Goal
Setting a goal for your hot yoga workout can help motivate you and track your progress. Use the “Goals” feature on your Apple Watch to set a calorie or time goal for your workout.
5. Monitor Your Calories Burned
Hot yoga is a great way to burn calories, and your Apple Watch can help you track how many you've burned. Make sure to check your calorie count during and after your workout.
6. Track Your Active Minutes
Tracking your active minutes can help you see how much time you're spending in hot yoga and how it contributes to your overall fitness goals. Your Apple Watch will automatically track your active minutes during your workout.
7. Use Third-Party Apps
There are several third-party apps available that can help you track your hot yoga workout on your Apple Watch. Some popular options include Yoga Studio, Pocket Yoga, and Asana Rebel.
8. Stay Hydrated
Hot yoga can be dehydrating, so it's important to drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout. Use the WaterMinder app on your Apple Watch to track your water intake and stay hydrated.
