Alongside the step-counter functionality, the Echo Buds now also support a number of other workout tracking features, thanks to the incoming update. First off, you can now monitor the duration of your workouts and the amount of calories you burn. It can also monitor the pace at which you walk/ run and the distance you cover, the company said. Echo Buds owners can start a workout session by issuing voice commands like, “Alexa start my run”. One can “also ask Alexa to pause a workout, end a workout and request an update on your pace”, said the report. To see all the stats after a workout session, users can open the Alexa app on their phone ans tap on Devices > Echo and Alexa > Echo Buds > Workouts.
