Now customers can track how their VO2 max increases as they improve fitness level and achieve their wellness goals, simply. Microsoft Band estimates VO2 max based on heart rate information. Traditionally, measuring VO2 Max is cumbersome.
VO2 Max: VO2 max refers to the maximum volume of oxygen used during exercise, and is the primary indicator of cardiovascular fitness. Fitness Benefit: Track fitness progress using historical data to measure improvement over time. Use the Microsoft Health web dashboard to analyze sleep restoration, sleep efficiency, and wake-ups, to find out how well the body restores its resources during sleep. Microsoft Band tracks the length and quality of sleep. Sleep Recovery: Good sleep is the foundation of health, and something everybody does and needs. Customers looking for motivation can use comparative insights as a benchmark to understand their health relative to similar people. Comparative Insights: Measures data such as daily steps, sleep, workout frequency and calorie burn and compares it to similar Microsoft Health customers based on body type (height and weight). These new insights are available via the web dashboard starting April 27th and are listed below: Microsoft's cloud analytics platform, Microsoft Health, has also been updated to provide new "Insights" into the body and health of an individual. My brother, an avid cyclist, has mentioned interest in the Microsoft Band, but without Strava integration he continued to rely on a cycling computer and a chest mounted heart rate monitor. 
In my experience, many members of the cycling community use Strava and cylcing computers to track their rides. Personally, I believe Strava integration is a huge boon to the Microsoft Band.

After this update is installed, the Strava and MapMyRide apps can harvest activity data from the Microsoft Band. The new update enhances the bike activity tile added in Feburary to now integrate with activity tracking apps Strava and MapMyRide. These updates broaden the capabilities of features of each by integrating with third party apps and services, implementing new health insights (analysis), and enhancing the Microsoft Health app to now work stand-alone without a paired Microsoft Band. Today Microsoft launched a new update to their fitness wearable, Microsoft Band, and also to their health platform and smartphone app, Microsoft Health.
