Warm up before a match

Tap Warmup on Home to start a tennis workout with a timer, heart rate and calories and no score. When you are ready to play, tap Setup a match: the match continues the same workout.

Start a warmup

  1. On Home, tap Warmup. The workout starts at once.
  2. The screen shows the time, your heart rate in BPM and the calories in Kcal.
Warmup screen with a timer, 142 BPM, 386 Kcal, a Setup a match button and a Finish button

The first time, Apple Health asks for permission to read heart rate and calories. See Apple Health, heart rate and calories.

Go from warmup to match

  1. Tap Setup a match. The Ready screen opens; the back button returns to the warmup.
  2. Choose the players and tap the check.

The match becomes the second part of the same workout, so Apple Health gets one tennis session with the warmup in it.

Finish without a match

  1. Tap Finish.
  2. Tap Yes, End Warmup.

The warmup is saved to Apple Health and to History, with its duration. Warming up is free.
