At NestEgg Health, we use Exercise Points to measure the value of your workouts during a challenge. It’s not just about how long you move—it’s about how hard you work while moving. A key goal for how we designed Exercise Points was to align with the U.S., European and World Health Organisation recommendations for physical activity.

We are saying it loud and clear, folks: Strength training isn’t optional. It’s essential. And yes, we're talking to every Egg! We break down the real, science-backed benefits of lifting weights: better longevity, hormone balance, brain function, and the simple ability to get off the floor without making that weird noise.

Understanding your heart rate and what it’s really telling you can completely change the way you approach exercise. Rather than focusing on steps, speed, or distance, tracking your heart rate lets you tune into what truly matters: your body’s effort. It gives you a real-time readout of how hard your heart is working, helping you train smarter, recover better, and improve more efficiently over time. By learning key heart rate metrics like resting heart rate, max heart rate, and heart rate zones, you can personalize your workouts to match your goals and your current fitness level.
