To keep your heart healthy, the American Heart Association (AHA) encourages you to stay active. Each week, they recommend that you do at least 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity. To help you follow these recommendations, Google Fit tracks your exercise in the form of Heart Points and steps.
How Fit measures your activity
The method of measuring your activity depends on the devices that you have and use. Google Fit uses your phone's sensors or a heart rate monitor to track your Heart Points and steps.

How long you should stay active
Google Fit gives you a Heart Point for each minute of activity that you do. While the AHA recommends staying active for at least ten minutes, recent science suggests that any moderate to vigorous exercise is helpful, however long you do it.
