As though that isn't enough to keep you motivated during training, Huawei also worked closely with the dsm-firmenich running team to refine the running power metric, which enables amateur runners to keep track of their exercise intensity.

There is also a wheelchair mode, which will identify specific pushing motions, distance, push count, and frequency.
