New ways to plan, run and reflect on your progress
Pixel Watch 3 also comes with powerful new tools for runners: helping you plan your runs, guide you through them, and then reflect on your progress every step of the way.
Whether you’re training to run a faster half, or your first 5K, the new Workout Builder lets you build custom runs. You can set goals for distance, time, pace, or heart rate zone, and easily create repeats for interval runs.
During your run, Pixel Watch 3 is like having a running companion on your wrist, providing haptic feedback and audio guidance so you know when your warm up is done, when you’re off pace, over your heart rate target, or when it’s time for your next interval. This real-time guidance is powered by highly accurate and continuous heart-rate tracking. And Pixel Watch 3 takes it a notch further — with major improvements in one of the toughest environments for heart rate sensing — delivering our most accurate heart rate for running yet.
After your run, Pixel Watch 3 even helps you analyse your form. New advanced motion sensing, combined with machine learning, powers running form-tracking that delivers a comprehensive analysis of the cadence of your steps, the length and height of your strides, and your ground contact time. You can even see how you are improving your pace, form, and mileage over time, and track your PRs in the new running dashboard in the Fitbit app.
Fitbit Premium brings major benefits on top of all this. Google AI powers automatic run recommendations, tailored to help you hit your target load, and personalised to your previous runs. It even explains why this run is right for you. And if you’re looking for ways to go beyond your regular training routine, Premium members can also enjoy a variety of Peloton workout classes led by Peloton Instructors – coming soon to the Fitbit app. Pixel Watch 3 comes with six months of Fitbit Premium included for new and returning users so you can make the most of your training with this personalised guidance and insights.
