Why don't you ask them yourself?
They should know more about it.

>>35397477
It makes fatties feel less fat

I've never seen someone in a decent shape wear those.

Monitors sleep cycle and heart rate, very valuable data to the right eyes. Tracks calories for maintenance/deficit/surplus target weight goals.

Don't knock it until you try it.

>>35397671
how the fuck does it know when you're sleeping and getting quality sleep?

Motion sensors + heartrate increase when restless, decrease when not restless.

>time to fall asleep 0min
wat

bought one back during Black Friday, the fit bit hr was on sale at Walmart. Tried it and returned after one. Bought it for curiosities sake. It does track your sleep, says I'm restless. My sleeping habit is bad to begin with. I average 4~5 hours on weekdays but get 8~10 on weekends. Everything else you have to put in though, water and food intake. I use my fitness pal now instead. Just not for me.

1) Buy at Walmart
2) keep everything, box, receipts
3) ???
4) profit

Got one 2 days ago. So far it's pretty cool, heart rate and distance sensors are surprisingly accurate. But then again if you don't do cardio im not so sure it's worth it.

>lotus says wear it
I shall try one

>>35397798
total mong. please get off the board and use your fucking brain..

Is there a reason to use something like this if I can just monitor steps and distance on my phone?

>doesn't believe literally everything is measurable given the right parameters

Why even bother to say something as unbelieving as this? It measures your heart rate and how still you are in your sleep which indicates how much of it was deep sleep

>>35397477
literally tracks you everywhere you go, then sends the data to the nsa

>>35397671
>tracks calories
and how does that track it?
by heart rate?
you mean you have to track it on the smartphone yourself

>>35397861

>expecting it to track your water and food intake without entering yourself

are you too stupid?

>>35398051
As a medfag who has worked in a sleep unit, I can say this is not very accurate.

For sleep quality you need to have a combination of things going on. Simply measuring HR and motion helps but you need way more... In sleep units they literally film them, measure pO2 /CO2, breathing rate, and electroencephalogram EEG

This fit bit is fucking BOTNET JUNK

essentially all of your data has to go through a US server before you can read it


you have to pay a subscription for this service but you can't use the device by itself

my mum got me one for christmas

I told her to return it and keep the money, as far as I can tell all it does is track your heart rate

>>35398498
Oh.

Do you have a recommendation for a step counter?
I've been using various apps on my phone, but even after tinkering with them, they aren't very accurate.

>>35397671
you're like the only black man i trust.

so i'll probably buy one

>>35398500
They have a GPS tracker so the NSA know where you are all the time

literally all it does is make you think that the walking you have always done every day suddenly counts as exercise
