In need of some inspiration to get into exercise mode? Maybe you want to keep track of how you’re actually performing with your daily routine?The pocket sized Fitbit tracker is a tech-savvy way to benefit from the fruits of your labor.
The little device monitors your statistics all throughout your workout and syncs and sends the data to your computer on which you can have a thorough read-up. The data from the Tracker automatically gets uploaded on the Fitbit website if you go within 25-50 feet of the included base station. You can get info on your calories, steps and distance on the Tracker itself and additional details about your profile like what you've eaten, your weight and body mass index, a daily activity report, how long you've slept and updates from friends, all could be obtained when you log on to the website.
The Fitbit Tracker contains a motion sensor like the ones found in the Nintendo Wii. The Tracker senses your motion in three dimensions and converts this into useful information about your daily activities. The Tracker measures the intensity and duration of your physical activities, calories burned, steps taken, distance traveled, how long it took you to fall asleep, the number of times you woke up throughout the night and how long you were actually asleep vs just lying in bed. You can wear the Tracker loosely in your pocket or clipped to your clothing, even bras.
Also, the Fitbit Tracker will allow to "see" what your body is actually doing at night. When you get into bed, you slide the Fitbit Tracker onto a wristband that is provided with the Tracker. As you fall in and out of REM sleep, your wrist experiences tiny tremors. The Tracker detects and records these tremors and can tell you how long it took you to fall asleep, how many times you woke up throughout the night and the actual time you were asleep vs the time you were in bed.
The Fitbit Tracker can last, on average, about 10+ days between charges. It ships with a sleep wristband and a belt holster for thick belts, as well as with its own base station, since it's a wireless device. It retails for about $100. |
