Intensity / Active Minutes Definition
Minutes spent in moderate-to-vigorous activity, often tallied against a weekly target like 150.
When it helps
As a simple health-guideline tracker, separate from structured training.
When it doesn't
As a measure of whether your running is improving. It is a health-guideline tally, nothing more.
