dillon Posted January 3, 2016 Share 2 hours+ of vigorous exercise will get you 3000 points.No need for HRM my son and I both used a phone with strava We both got 3000 points. I think you can go for a 2 hour stroll and get 3000 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can go for a 2 hour stroll and get 3000 pointsYours would have been on distance then. Stroll wouldn't qualify as you'd either need to go for aaaages to get over the threshold of 42km for 3,000 points, or have an HRM to show that you really worked on those 2 hours.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted January 3, 2016 Share Easiest way to think of it is as such: If HRM then: > 2h @ vigorous = 3,000 points2h > Vigorous > 90 min = 1,500 points If no HRM then distance based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each adult can earn up to 30 000 Vitality points for fitness each year. Vitality will award points for one fitness event a day only. If you complete two fitness events in one day, then you will get the higher points between the two. Points may take up to two weeks to show on your Vitality Points Monitor after you have uploaded your data from your chosen device or app. Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted January 3, 2016 Share Has the criteria changed then? I was under the impression 200points is the max you can earn on a activity if it is not a "race or an "event" then you can earn up to 3000 or 5000 points. This coincides with I earned points over that past few weeks. All my 3 to 5hr rides has been max 200points over the last few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
