Athletes everywhere are taking notice – training smarter is all about detailed tracking. To cater to these performance driven athletes and fitness enthusiasts, Mio Global introduced the Mio Fuse, an accurate heart rate monitor watch and activity fitness tracker that improves your performance and health.

Long gone are the days when you trained for the sake of training and didn’t know if your body had properly recovered from a workout. That’s why all Mio performance wearables – from heart rate monitors to activity trackers – are designed to perform at the highest levels of accuracy. Whether it’s your first 5K or your 10th triathlon, Mio delivers the real-time data you need to get in the zone, enhance your training efficiency, and track down your fitness goals.

Training has been positively affected by technology on different aspects of physical activity and potential future applications. The Mio Fuse allows you to track steps, pace, distance and calories to provide a complete assessment of your daily effort. It also provides EKG-accurate heart rate data, with no chest strap required and connects to your iPhone and Android fitness apps.

The Mio Fuse allows you to train with the right intensity level and help prevent injury caused by overtraining and improper pacing. The benefits of a heart rate monitor device is that it provides a real-time, dynamic representation of your body’s response to exercise. Therefore, training within your target heart rate zones can help to improve the efficiency of your workouts.

What makes Mio Global different from other brands offering heart rate monitor devices, is that it has introduced Personal Activity Intelligence called PAI. The PAI App is a metric which finally makes sense of heart rate data for the average consumer. The PAI App makes activity tracking simple, just keep your score above 100 to enjoy optimal health. Your score is based on a rolling 7-day window of activity, which allows people to fit their exercise into their schedule and meet their goals.

By maintaining a PAI score above 100, it has been scientifically proven to help you maximise your longevity and reduce the risk of lifestyle-related diseases. The algorithms used in the PAI app are based on the largest health study ever conducted, using 20 years of activity data from 60,000+ people.

“Mio Global offers performance wearables designed to obtain the best performance and activity results that lead to a stronger and healthier you. Everyone’s body responds differently to exercise and we are proud to be part of the journey to a healthy and balanced lifestyle for the ordinary consumer,” says Jason Theunissen, Brand Custodian for Mio Global South Africa.
