The Fitbit

You've most likely heard by now about the Fitbit--you may have seen people wear one, or you may even own one. The Fitbit's purpose is to track your activity or inactivity and to help you reach goals concerning fitness and physical health. It's a device worn on the wrist that is not as bulky as a watch, and it has features such as a pedometer, heart rate, calorie and sleep tracker.  There some other cool features throughout the different models like a GPS, a distance tracker which isn't always accurate but gives a close estimate, a caller notification (which vibrates your Fitbit when someone is attempting to call you), and the time that you have been active. The Fitbit syncs the information into an app which you can view at any time as long as you have your smartphone. With the Fitbit app, you may view all of these statistics and set goals for yourself. For example, if you want to reach 10,000 steps by the end of the day, you may set the goal, and you will receive a notification saying that you reached your goal. With Fitbit, you can track your physical activity, and help yourself get fit.
