Do Fitness Trackers Really Work?

October 18, 2016 By Corey B

It wasn’t long ago when people started tracking the number of steps they took daily with a pedometer. In today’s fitness world, it would be difficult to find a person without a fitness tracker at the gym, in your favorite fitness class or at your local track. Fitness trackers, whether they are attached to your wrist, ankle, neck or chest, have essentially become part of our daily wardrobe. But, do these fitness trackers really work?

Just How Popular are Fitness Trackers? Many of us do not leave our homes without our fitness trackers. In a survey conducted by the NPD Group, results indicated that 58% of women intend to purchase one of these devices in the near future.

Why Fitness Trackers Work?

Research indicates that if you want to stick with a new habit (such as taking regular walks), monitoring is one of the best ways to change your old habits and stick with your new habits. As a result, the benefits of fitness trackers may seem like a no-brainer to some. These fitness trackers have taken the guess work out of keeping track of physical activity on your own. The set up of these fitness trackers is very easy and monitoring your own healthy habits has never been easier. Taking the guess work out of fitness monitoring is working.

Fitness trackers also put into perspective how much you are actually walking. It may seem like you are parked a mile away from your office when in reality you are much, much closer. When estimating your physical activity on your own, chances are you overestimate how much physical activity you are actually doing. Fitness trackers provide you with the real numbers and bring you back to reality. With objective information, you can get more specific about the lifestyle changes you need to make in order to achieve your health and fitness goals.

How Can Fitness Trackers Work for You?

As with all technology and all forms of fitness, there are going to be upsides and downsides. Fortunately, if you choose to use a fitness trackers, there are ways that you can be successful when it comes to achieving your fitness goals. Before you begin heavily monitoring what your fitness tracker says, be sure to set very clear goals for yourself. Write your goals down and decide what you need to track in order to successfully achieve your goals (for example, steps or calories). Depending on what device you opt to buy, there are may be different features.

When using a fitness tracker, try to use as many of the features as you can. This can help you avoid getting too caught up in one feature (for example, the number of steps you take in a day) and allow you to see all the other great things you are doing for your body. Seeing your heart rate as well as your blood pressure can help you see the bigger picture of your overall health. There is more to your overall health than just the number of steps you take in a day.

Fitness trackers can be great tool to help you track your fitness.
