Endurance Mode is ideal for building stamina and control. If you’re just getting started, see Quick Start first.
Prerequisites
- Your trainer is paired with your dashboard account. See Pairing your Trainer.
- Your trainer is connected to Wi‑Fi so results upload automatically. See Connect to Wi‑Fi.
- You’ve selected a toy and completed calibration (if required for your firmware stream).
How Endurance Mode works
- You’re given a target depth and duration to hold.
- The display shows your current position relative to the target zone.
- Your goal is to maintain position within the target window for the full duration.
- The timer only counts down while you’re in the correct zone.
Understanding the LED feedback
During training, the LED strip provides real-time feedback on your position:| LED Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Green | You’re in the target zone — hold this position |
| Yellow | You’re ahead of the target (too shallow) |
| Red | You’re behind the target or out of position |
Keep the LED green to maximize your time in zone and achieve the best score.
Run an endurance session
Choose or create a template
From the dashboard, open a training template configured for Endurance Mode. You can also browse community templates under Shareable Templates.
Set targets (depth, duration)
Pick a comfortable depth target and duration. Start with shorter holds (10–30 seconds) and increase as your stamina improves.
Prepare and calibrate
Attach your toy securely. If calibration is available, run it now so the trainer accurately measures your position.
Start training and hold position
Begin the session. Move to the target depth and hold steady. Watch the display and LED for feedback.
You’re on track when the LED stays green and the timer counts down steadily.
Finish and review your results
When you complete the hold, your grade and points upload to the dashboard. See Checking Your Results to review your performance.
Scoring and points
Your score is based on how much time you spent in the target zone versus total active time.- Scoring formula:
Time in Zone ÷ Active Time - Breaking position pauses the countdown and reduces your overall score.
- Visit Points for examples and how other modes compare.
Short breaks are counted as time outside the zone. Aim for longer, uninterrupted holds to maximize your score.
Best practices
- Start conservative: Choose a duration you can complete comfortably before increasing.
- Breathe steadily: Inhale through the nose, exhale slowly; avoid breath-holding.
- Relax your body: Tension makes it harder to maintain position.
- Use the vibrator accessory: It provides confirmation feedback when you’re in the zone.
- Rest between attempts: Take 30–60 seconds between segments to reduce fatigue.
Troubleshooting
I can't reach my target duration
I can't reach my target duration
- Lower the target by 5–10 seconds and build back up gradually.
- Focus on relaxation and steady nasal breathing before starting.
- Try a shallower depth target first.

Any movement outside the target window counts as time outside the zone. Focus on finding a stable, comfortable position before the timer starts, then hold steady.

Small movements near the zone boundary cause color changes. Try to settle into a stable position well within the target zone rather than at its edge.
