edited November 2024 in Fitness and Exercise
So my weekly exercise is as follows
Tuesday - Les Mills Body Pump (1 hour class)
Wednesday - Netball (2 hour class)
Thursday - Gym= stationary bike/rowing/cross trainer
Saturday - Les Mills Body Combat (1 hour class)

I am just wondering what trackers people think would work best I looked at getting a moov band but I don't think that would work.
Any one have any better ideas?

    what is it you are trying to track? most just track heart rate, calories burned, stairs climbed, steps taking , sleep patterns, etc.

    Can't think of anything that might be useful to you, but as above, what are you wanting to gain from any form of tracking?

    Tracking calories is a nice way of maintaining weight.

    I am wanting to track calories burnt I guess so that it can aid me in weight loss.
    Steps is a side bonus but not always necessary.

    Given that selection of activities there isn't anything on the market that'll give you a relioable calorie burn.

    People will weigh in and recommend Polar or Fitbit HRs, in the main. If you do opt for one of those then factor about 40-50% error.

    I think you need something what tracks heart rate first, you gonna see more accurate how much calories you burn if you looking for calorie burn amount.

    I love my fitbit HR Charge. I find it very accurate when I compare calories burned against treadmill.
