Apple Celebrating Earth Day and International Dance Day With New Apple Watch Activity Challenges? ›

After the Earth Day challenge, Apple will also launch another challenge for International Dance Day, which takes place on April 29. The Dance Day award can be earned by completing a dance workout that lasts 20 minutes or longer, and it too will unlock a badge and animated stickers.

You can challenge a friend to a competition in which you earn points based on the percentage of your Activity Rings that you close. You get a point for every percent you add to your rings each day. The competition lasts 7 days and you can earn up to 600 points a day for a maximum of 4,200 points for the week.

Monthly challenges are based off you previous workout and exercise data,they are different for everybody. And yes they do get harder as time goes on,this is to get you to work harder and get fitter.

Getting started with Challenges is easy. Join a team challenge and aim to complete your Stand, Move, and Exercise rings. Whether you get there by shakin' it to Queen Bey or taking the furthest spot in the parking lot, it's up to you. Keep tabs on your progress via Apple Watch, the Challenges App, or the Health app.

Let's go for it in 2024. Earn this award by closing all three rings for seven days in a row in January. Apple Watch owners will need to fulfill their stand, exercise, and move goals for seven days sequentially at any time during the month of January to get the New Year's award.

Monthly challenges cant be changed as they are based off your previous exercise data,so if youve been exercising hard recently then you will get a fairly difficult challenge.

If someone stops sharing their activity with you, their name will no longer appear under the Sharing tab. If someone hasn't stopped sharing, but is just hiding their fitness data from you, their rings will be grayed out and their name will be last on the Sharing tab.

Usually the goals cycle around and you'll get a slightly higher target versus what you did last month, but on different area. Apple needs about a month's worth of data to determine your challenge. Monthly Challenge is tailored to your activity and that is why it needs data to be able to generate it.

Are Apple Watch monthly challenges the same every month? ›

You need to vary the type of exercise/workouts that you do,monthly challenges are based off your previous finess data and are different for everybody.

While most workouts you track with Apple Health are counted directly as workout minutes in the Activity Rings, Walking is a special workout type insofar as minutes are only counted when your heart rate hits that minimum threshold.

How do I get my Apple Watch score to 600 points? You can get 600 points by doubling your daily goals. Since there are three goals, or rings (move, stand, and exercise), completing each by exactly 100% would mean a total of 300 points. So, to reach 600, you'd have to close each ring twice.

Challenges is a free fitness app that allows owners of fitness trackers to combine exercise with friendly competition to motivate participants towards their health goals.

So 30 minutes of exercise is 100 points and 3hrs of exercise is 600 points which is the maximum you can get for all rings in a single day. But you never really need to do 3hrs because you are going to get at least 100 points from 12 hrs standing, and some from the Move goal too.
