Findings show an excellent 90% correlation with electrocardiogram equipment while running, the gold standard in heart rate measurement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sweat loss<\/strong>:<a> Sweat loss estimates the amount of fluid lost during physical activity and helps guide proper hydration after workouts. The study found a 95% correlation for Galaxy Watch in assessing sweat loss over varying distances ranging from 2.5 km to 20 km.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>VO<sub>2<\/sub> max<\/strong>: Understanding how much oxygen the body absorbs during a workout helps individuals assess their fitness levels and set optimal goals and limits. The study demonstrated an 82% correlation, indicating acceptable alignment between Galaxy Watch and clinical-grade diagnostic equipment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Body fat percentage<\/strong>: Measuring a person\u2019s body fat percentage allows for a better understanding of physical health and fitness than tracking body weight alone. Galaxy Watch readings showed a 95% correlation with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) results, the standard diagnostic test for body composition using low-dose X-rays.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;re proud to be recognized by the renowned Michigan Performance Research Laboratory \u2014 their skilled researchers and expertise in wearable technology give us confidence in the accuracy of the Galaxy Watch&#8217;s fitness tracking capabilities,\u201d said Dr. Hon Pak, Senior Vice President and Head of Digital Health Team, Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u201cWe are committed to delivering precise and insightful fitness tracking experiences through strategic partnerships and advanced research.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur partnership with Samsung exemplifies the power of combining industry-leading expertise with pioneering independent research at the academic level,\u201d said Co-PIs <a href=\"https:\/\/hpssc.umich.edu\/staff-member\/adam-lepley\/\">Adam Lepley<\/a>, MiPR director and associate director of HPSSC research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTogether, we can advance scientific discovery and provide information back to consumers that will enhance the use of Samsung\u2019s technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> This synergy underscores the power of uniting academic excellence with industrial innovation, and we are grateful for this collaboration.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to continue our partnership with Samsung to ensure that innovations in wearable technology are accessible and accurate across all segments of the population,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/hpssc.umich.edu\/staff-member\/kenneth-kozloff\/\">Kenneth Kozloff<\/a>, HPSSC co-director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u201cHPSSC and MiPR are eager to unveil these outstanding outcomes that solidify our commitment to enhancing heart rate and health monitoring and are look forward to future collaborations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following tips can enhance your fitness journey with the Galaxy Watch series, from setting personal goals to post-workout recovery:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Body composition<\/strong><a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\">[1]<\/a><strong>: <\/strong>Get a comprehensive snapshot of your body, including body fat percentage, body water content and skeletal muscle mass.
