Yeah, it's pretty much it's fault that I ended up starting getting fit. I saw those damn circles and missing them, and got miffed. I then realised what else could be tracked around the health features, and suddenly I found myself on one hell of a health kick.0
-
Me too!0
-
Same here! I started the very day I got the watch. I would never have believed this would be the one thing that would "click" for me. Best thing I have ever purchased.0
-
It certainly wasn't in the features I expected to be a winner for me - now I'm craving watchOS 2 coming out and being able to track stuff even better

The downside is my other watches barely get worn.

I know! I have a few nice watches, but this one is the best !!!0
-
I'm thinking of buying one right now...0

Anyone know a good tutorial for getting the most out of it? I can't get it to report the only thing I really care about:
- total calorie burn

I wear mine all day long everyday and try to get my rings. Only bad thing is it gets kind of gross on the underside after sweating a lot.0
-
That is very true!!! I wipe off at night! I get most of the rings but only weight lift three days per week.

Go to apple and read the manual. It's a good idea to get the most out of! You read your calories on iPhone under activity.0
-
Get one!!! It is amazing! I looked at several that monitor data. Nothing could compare to Apple! I have many Apple products so I might be bias too, but they make the BEST products! You get what you pay for!0

I don't know what I would do without mine. Between MFP app on it and reminders those are the best. The fact that I can change the band to match my outfit for the day is the bomb.0
-
I have found that the MFP is really glitchy in pulling in accurate step counts. Has anyone else had this issue?0
-
Hahaha!!! I would like the white band, but I like the black too.
Haven't had too many issues with steps not pulls in correctly.0 -
I love mine! I love the Stand Up feature. (quite surprised by that). I get up, walk around and do body weight squats in the ladies room if no one else is there.
I also love being able to get texts without pulling out my phone. I always have my phone on 'mute' at work, and love that I can get the haptics on my wrist so I don't miss it.
Really, I'm as lost without it as I am without my phone....
I can't wait for all the new apps now that the new ios is out....

Have had mine for 2 weeks and it only comes off my wrist for showers, swimming and charging. I do wish the calorie burns were more accurate though, and the resting calories quoted seem too high.0
-
Love mine! Any suggestions for apps that help with walking?0
-
I've got one arriving on Friday. Can't wait.0

I tried MapMyWalk, have dropped it for the simple step counter in the iPhone health app and the same info on the Apple Watch under the 3 ring activity summary. Since my steps are counted automatically, I can look at the total steps that day and if I'm low, I can walk more. I've watched my daily average go from 4K steps daily to 15k. Easy metric to see and follow.Love mine! Any suggestions for apps that help with walking?
Also, I really like that the exercise ring makes me walk an average of at least 3.5 mph (17.14 mile pace) in order to get full credit for the walk to complete that ring. If I walk slower, I don't get full credit. So as I walk I look at the pace every minute or so, and if the pace is low I know to walk faster. Again, an easy metric to see and follow.
Other apps may give you more data, but for me, simpler is better.0 -

I love mine!!! Ready for watch OS2 !!! Hopefully in next few days !!!0 -
I love mine and an addicted to earning the achievements. I've had mine since April 24th and have worn it every day since! ❤️⌚️0 -
Holy crap !!! I need to bulk up on mine !! Only a few achievements0
-
My husband insisted on getting an Apple Watch for me, and I love it, especially for the activity rings & the fitness app. It's really motivated me to move more, and I like earning achievements!
I like getting notifications on my wrist too.0 -
Smart man !!! They are the best !!!!0

I bought my watch (gold Sports) on Wednesday night and absolutely love it already! This is just the thing i need to track my progress. Went to Boots yesterday to weigh myself and get a reading of BF%.
Love the app installed but wondered if anyone could recommend a good app to track my British Military Fitness classes? There's general running and sprints involved but what's the best way to monitor all the sit ups, press ups. Squat/lunges reps we do? Was shocked to see I ran 4.5k in a class on Thursday, so pleased!0 -
There is no new watch coming out at this time. At least that's what I was told at the Apple store. The only thing that happened was iOS9.0

Wow !!! I've used the "open exercise" with no goal setting when I weight lift since it's not an option.0
