Fitness trackers that are waterproof?

TiannaStevens

Hi my name is Tianna, I am looking for a waterproof fitness tracker that tracks biking, swimming, walking, floors of stairs with a heart rate monitor. Do any of you guys know of any fitness trackers like that? Which fitness trackers do you guys like? Which brand, which model? Thank you advance for all the replies.

I love my Fitbit Surge, just wish it did the swimming!! If it was waterproof then would be perfect.

I don't know any that do all of those. My Moov Now is waterproof and will track biking, swimming, running and has some neat training modes as well. Is does not count steps or floors of stairs, and it does not include a built in HRM. It does count active minutes. In need the associated app for the various training modes, and will work with third party Bluetooth Smart Heart Rate Monitor straps for activities that HRM would be appropriate for. Overall I like it, but it has some shortcomings I would like to see corrected in terms of not registering active minutes for activities l like to do that certainly would be considered active. I do wish it synced with another exercise tracking app not just the way it does at the moment sending information from its app to Mapmyfitness and/or Strava, but also the other direction from Maymyfitness/Strava back to the Moov app to get my active minutes from those things that it does not record well. I also wish it synced with Myfitnesspal, which at the moment it does not.

Off the top of my head, the only one I can think of that does all of those things is the Apple Watch 2. It has GPS, is waterproof to 50m, can track steps (as well as stairs, if memory serves), and measures heart rate. That said, if you want to monitor your heart rate in real time, something like a Polar watch that you can sync to an HRM chest strap will probably your best bet. I'm not sure if the Polar watches meet your other requirements, however.

I bought my husband the Garmin Vivoactive for Xmas. It's a little over $200 if you get it with the bluetooth heart rate monitor (which is awesome). Anyway, this smart watch rules. It tracks steps, cycling miles, swim laps, and sleep. Oh, and heart rate, of course. It syncs with Strava. It has a really long battery life, so you can use it on long rides or hikes, etc. The GPS tracking is in the watch itself, so you don't have to carry your phone with you all the time. It also does regular smartwatch stuff like message notifications, etc.
