How to Add Exercise on a Fitbit

I’m a big believer that the more information you have, the better, especially when it comes to keeping track of your goals. If something like a Fitbit motivates you to hit that extra 2,000 steps or makes you notice if your resting heart rate is a bit high, it can definitely be a good tool. It’s especially helpful if having that data in front of you pushes you to stay on track and do more. For example, I personally use a food tracker to log everything I eat, be it calories, macronutrients, and fiber. Even though I know what I’m eating, seeing the data laid out really helps me stay focused and aware. But it’s important not to treat the numbers from a Fitbit as 100% accurate. It can’t give you the exact numbers on things like calories burned or steps taken, but it’s great for tracking your trends over time, like how many steps you’re doing this week compared to last month. Fitbit can definitely be a positive addition to your exercise and fitness routine, but just remember that it’s not a perfect measure of everything.
