Using the Exercise Function
3-1 About the exercise function
 What is the exercise function?
This function allows you to exercise and check how close you are to your target pace.
By setting a target pace in advance, the device indicates if you are exceeding your 
target while exercising. It also indicates how close you are to your target.
This is useful when you want to be aware of your running pace.
You can measure split and lap times in the same way as the chronograph.

METS is a unit that shows the strength of physical activity. We can express the strength of 
physical activity by assuming that one METS is the equivalent of sitting down and relaxing. 
A walk is usually the equivalent of three METS. Therefore, this type of physical activity is 
approximately three times as strong as sitting down and relaxing.
