Huawei Watch GT 3: Getting healthy can get easier

Doing it everyday is the hard part

Alright, I’ve recently fallen out of my intense fitness journey. Since the pandemic began, I took my health and fitness seriously. I was working out four to five times a week and getting stronger. And, to be honest, I had ulterior motives to getting fit: finally going off my meds.

The journey was challenging and painful but, for a while, it was just demoralizing not having a good way to track my progress. It prompted looking into smartwatches that could help me stay on track while noting my health on a day-to-day basis (especially on days where I wasn’t working out).

Guess what your girl got to try this time? The Huawei Watch GT 3. And, oh boy, you’re in for a treat.

“It gets easier…”

Taken from the heart-wrenching series, Bojack Horseman, “Every day it gets a little easier. But, you got to have to do it every day. That’s the hard part. But it does get easier.”

Whether you’re trying to stay healthy, get fit, or be healthier, it can be tough to stick to. Personally, it just got difficult to find the motivation when tracking my health was impossible. This is why, having the Huawei Watch GT 3 not just sparked my fitness journey but also, helped me maintain my health.

The Huawei Watch GT 3 feels like a personal trainer on the wrist. The nice forgiving kind, not the naggy kind (thankfully).

From recording data to analyze your workouts and overall health, the watch helps you get through the tough parts of your fitness journey. It keeps track of everything from your heart rate to workouts to sleep quality. That way, you can zero in on your health like no other!

Pace yourself

When I was working out a lot and staying intensely active, I was overdoing it. I would overwork myself to every fitness challenge out there to push myself. And, well, passed out and got ill. Which is the point — I had to learn to pace myself.

Your health and fitness is a big shift of lifestyle so, you need to go easy on yourself. And, striking that balance can be genuinely daunting.

With the Huawei Watch GT 3 all the daunting shenanigans became achievable. The watch can intelligently identify the basic period, lifting period, consolidation period, and reduction period depending on your athletic ability level and goals.

From there, the watch can appropriately and custom adjust the training intensity and gradually increases the training volume to gradually get to your fitness goals. So, don’t overwork yourself and get to your goals to the beating of your own heart.

Feel better

Because you deserve to. A smartwatch doesn’t always have to be there to get the skinny legend summer body we’re told is “perfection.” You are stunning, beautiful, and handsome as you are and maybe you just need something that keeps you in check for your stress, sleep, or holistic health. Well, funny that then.

The Huawei GT 3 features both AI Running Coach and Healthy Living Shamrock. These will help you not just get fit; it’ll help you stay healthy.

If you want to strut in style while doing all that, these ones finally got what the others didn’t: HarmonyOS 2.1. Letting you experience the same design and interactive features on your phone!

Routine and stamina

Staying mindful over your diet, workout, and overall health can be straining but the Huawei Watch GT 3 luckily won’t give up on you quickly. The watch has a battery life of at least seven days to 14 days in the tank.

Remember though: to go easy on yourself on your journey to healthy or to stay healthy. No journey or goal is ever easy to work towards so, be forgiving towards yourself.

The Huawei Watch GT 3 46mm has a price tag of PhP 12,999 with freebies worth PhP 3,998 while the Huawei Watch GT 3 42mm starts at PhP 11,999. But with holiday deals, it costs PhP 8,999 online exclusive with freebies worth PhP 2,490 during pre-order phase.
