Zepp Training: Courses and Plans on Your Wrist Your training now lives on the watch. This update adds support for Zepp training courses, Zepp training plans, and the training calendar, so you can follow structured sessions and keep every workout organized directly on Active Max.
HYROX Virtual Pace: Build Your Race Plan HYROX Virtual Pace helps athletes build race plans and monitor pacing against target times. Based on your target completion time, it generates segmented strategy times for each stage, giving you a clearer pacing reference for HYROX races.
Pool Swimming: Manual Rest, Clearer Splits The Pool Swimming algorithm has been upgraded with support for Manual Rest.

Swimming segments are further categorized by stroke, giving you a clearer training structure. Find it under: Pool Swimming > Workout Settings > Press Lower Button > Manual Rest
