In the interval of per Minute, the resting heart rate of professional athletes is usually between 40 and 60 beats/Min.

Troubleshooting
1. Q: Why does my Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro count inaccurately? 
AStep recording principle: The watch has a built-in acceleration sensor that detects data through the acceleration sensor and then combines the algorithm and the basic information of the human body, which is eventually converted into information such as steps, consumption, etc.
Factors that affect the number of steps recorded by the watch:
1, Because the watch measures the walking distance  is based on the user's own set height, gender and weight to estimate the user's step, and then multiplied by the number of steps taken by the individual to arrive at an estimated value.
2, Because steps will vary from person to person, may be people with the same height, gender, weight  will have different steps, so the final calculated value will also have a large error.
3, The accuracy of the pace, that is, the number of steps walked, there are many uncertainties will have a lot to do with each person's behavior habits, such as the arm swinging range walking habits and human activity scenes more (such as walking, riding, driving, bathing, etc.), arm movements are more complex (such as keyboard tapping, moving the mouse, lifting objects, etc.).
4, It is precisely because of the above reasons so the watch's final calculated distance is also an estimated value, the watch can not be used as a professional measurement tool to measure the distance. This is followed by continuous optimization of the software algorithm to calculate a more accurate data.

2. Q: How to do if there is a wrist lift screen failure, heart rate failure, push dial failure, compass failure, Bluetooth frequent disconnection 
A: In either case, try pressing and pressing the key on the watch for 12 seconds to restart the watch and return to normal after the restart.

3. Q: Why is GPS sometimes slow? 
A: GPS start-up is divided into cold start, warm start and hot start. Cold start generally occurs in the following situations:
1, watch GPS function when the first use;
2, watch battery exhaustion shut down caused by the loss of satellite calendar information;
3, watch shutdown state displacement of more than 200 kilometers
Solution: When GPS positioning is slow, you can turn the AP back on and reconnect your watch to sync data, which will also greatly improve gps positioning speed.
Because in a cold start state, the watch GPS positioning system needs to download satellite calendar information, therefore, when positioning will be much larger than the temperature start and heat start conditions. Taking into account the way the watch is worn and the impact of the arm on the GPS antenna, it is recommended that the user choose an open space during cold start-up (including first positioning), keep the dial pointing to the sky under normal watch wear, and complete the download of the star calendar and GPS cold start-up positioning in 60 to 90 seconds, depending on the weather and surrounding environment.
If the watch has not shifted significantly since the last positioning and is less than 2 hours apart from the last positioning, the watch GPS can achieve a hot start. In open spaces, the watch is worn normally and the dial can be positioned in about 5 seconds when the dial points to the sky. The specific time is related to the weather and surrounding environment.

4. Q: Why sometimes, there is no movement track or track loss after movement? 
A:1. Before the start of the movement please check to confirm that in the sports preparation interface, GPS positioning success (i.e. GPS symbol turned yellow, and there is a vibration prompt) after the start of the movement.
2. GPS is affected by many factors, surrounding tall buildings, complex terrain, overpages, tunnels and complex electrical signal environment, harsh climatic conditions such as sandstorms, heavy rain, such as bad natural weather will cause GPS positioning failure, loss of track and so on.
3. In order to ensure that the GPS movement trajectory is more accurate, it is recommended to keep the phone and watch connected when the motion is turned on.

5. Q: Why didn't Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro generate motion data after exercise?
A1. Please confirm that the watch is wearing normally, heart rate is normal;
