Garmin Vivosmart 3 Review

Well, nothing is guaranteed in life except for a few things like death, taxes, Marvel super hero movies, cliche intros, and smart watches slash fitness trackers. And the majority of these fitness trackers are coming from Garmin. And today, we’ve got the Garmin VivoSmart 3 for review.

We’re going to find out whats new, is it good, the bad, and if you should shell out the cash for the garmin vivosmart 3.

The Vivosmart 3 currently comes in 2 color ways, Black or a plum looking purple. It is also very competitively priced at $139.99. which is ten dollars cheaper than the fitbit charge 2 or fitbit alta hr. If you do decide to pick this garmin up, just make sure you get the right size for you.

If you wanna pick the vivosmart 3 up, i’ll have a link in the description below.

Ok, so lets get this thing out of the box. Garmin has never really been good on delivering on the unboxing experience like fitbit does and the vivosmart 3 is no exception. Inside you’ll find the fitness tracker, a predator style charging cradle, a user manual, and a tab instructing you to download gamin’s connect app to your phone.

The Garmin Viviosmart 3 is a well put together fitness tracker for its price. Its not as premium looking or feeling like lets say the fitbit alta HR. Instead the vivosmart 3 is made mostly out of silicon and has a very minimalist design. When the screen is off it basically looks like youre wearing a black wrist band. When you double tap the screen or raise your arm the OLED screen turns on. Honestly, I’m a fan of the OLED screen, its bright and very easy to read in direct sunlight.

I also like the resolution you get from this screen. You get slightly more detail than other screens found on other fitness trackers.  This Fitness Tracker has a 5 day battery life, but if you’re a power user you should get around 3 or 4 days. This fitness tracker also connects via bluetooth and has a range of 30 feet. But overall the Garmin Vivosmart 3 is a very compact and light weight fitness tracker.

Its slightly smaller than the fitbit charge 2, but manages to squeeze in a screen that is able to show you much more information. Just keep in mind you cant swap out bands, so you’re stuck with what ever you get. The garmin vivosmart 3 does all the things you’d expect a basic fitness tracker should do these days. It Tracks your steps, distance walked, floors climbed, calories burned, intensity minutes, and it tracks your sleep so you can get a better understanding of your sleep quality.

And with Move IQ it’ll automatically detect exercises and log them for you in the garmin connect app. This tracker also has a heart rate monitor on the back which is also very low profile. But the garmin vivosmart 3 does have a few other tricks up its sleeve. First up, its water proof so you can swim with it on and it’ll track your laps, which not all fitness trackers in this price range or with this feature set can do. (ie. the Alta HR or Charge 2.)

Garmin also claims the Vivosmart 3 can track your stress levels and displays it to you on both the tracker and in the garmin connect app.

One really cool feature i do like on this fitness tracker is the new rep counting capabilities. It’s not 100% accurate and doesn’t work if you’re using leg excise machines like the leg press, leg extension, leg curls and so on. But if you’re somebody that does a lot of full body circuit training, or crossfit then this feature can be pretty handy.

The Garmin Vivosmart 3 also has a few other features baked into it. For starters, you can see the weather, your smart phone notifications, and control your music playback. You also get a stop watch and a timer built in, so if you don’t want to take your phone out, you have options. But i think my favorite feature is the find my phone feature. Right from your vivosmart 3 you can play a ring tone on your phone so you can find it. although the hardware does have its pros, like I’ve said in the past when buying a fitness tracker you’re not just buying the hardware, you’re also buying into the software. And here Garmin connect is to windows and Fitbit’s App is to Apple.

So would i recommend the Garmin Vivosmart 3? If you need something water proof cause you swim a lot and you want something with a heart rate monitor built in. or if you’re already used to using garmin fitness trackers and you haven’t upgraded in awhile or if you’re really into running. Then yeah this one is for you. Just keep in mind, theres no built in GPS on the Vivosmart 3. they’re probably saving that for the Plus model later.

Garmin Vivosmart 3 Smart Activity Tracker Fitness Watch – Choose Color & Size

Condition: Brand new, USA Warranty

The thinnest HR-equipped activity tracker from Garmin at 4mm thinner and more form fitting than vvosmart HR

While not in use, the discreet display disappears into the device so as not to overshadow your style

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Your activity tracker doesn’t define you, but what you do with it certainly can. That’s why vivosmart 3 features a discreet but attractive profile to help it fit right in with any fashion, and its smart features keep you on your toes. Track activity, monitor your heart rate, get smart notifications, and even access detailed fitness monitoring tools such as VO2 max estimate and your fitness age.

Subtle, Stylish and Smart Your sense of style is uniquely you. Let vivosmart 3 complement that style without trying to overshadow it. Featuring a slim, inconspicuous band, vivosmart 3 is as hip as anything in your closet. Even better, it’s a master of subtlety. The tracker’s hidden display is only visible when you want it to be. When you’re not using it, it disappears into the device. It’s the perfect companion for the office, the gym, the pool and everywhere in between. Daily Fitness Monitoring Thanks to Elevate wrist-based heart rate technology, vivosmart 3 activity tracker is full of great features that let you get a better idea of your current fitness level. For example, it’s our first dedicated activity tracker to offer VO2 max estimate. It can even estimate your fitness age, which you may be able to decrease over time with hard work and regular exercise. Wellness Monitoring vivosmart 3 tracks heart rate variability (HRV), which is used to calculate and display your stress level. You can look at this graph right on your device anytime you’re sitting or at rest. When the level starts to move up, it indicates that your stress is getting higher. What causes this? Any number of physical or emotional external sources. vivosmart 3 helps you recognize when this is happening so you can find a way to relieve the stress, for example, by using the relaxation-based breathing timer, built right into the stress widget. Based on the Fourfold breathing technique, it offers a 1 to 5 minute guided breathing exercise. Automatic Activity Tracking vivosmart 3 activity tracking capabilities include steps, floors climbed, calories burned, intensity minutes and more. Move IQ automatically detects exercises such as walking, swimming, cycling and elliptical training. It can also automatically start a timed walk or run activity. So you’re free to get up, get moving, and let vivosmart 3 capture your active life. As always, you can review your activities later on Garmin Connect, our online community.

Your Personal Rep Counter Gym rats, rejoice. We’re adding a companion to your workout – or more specifically, a companion that’s great at keeping count.

That data gets pushed to Garmin Connect during your next sync so you can review your workout in even greater detail. Smart Notifications and Smarter Features To help keep up with your busy lifestyle, you can view emails, text messages and social network notifications right on your wrist. Other features that help you stay linked with life include automatic uploads to Garmin Connect and compatibility with TrueUp, which lets you synchronize multiple activity trackers. The ability to find your phone and music controls are also available right at the wrist. Connect and Compete Keeping an eye on your activities and achievements is easy. vivosmart 3 activity tracker automatically syncs to Garmin Connect, our online community where you can review your progress, join challenges and even share via social media.

Fitbit Alta HR Has a Neat Sleep Feature

A lot of people are pretty happy with the Fitbit Alta, and it is not difficult to see why. The Alta HR is among the slimmest and most stylish physical fitness trackers on the market these days. The Alta HR also has numerous alert characteristics that are standard for virtually every Fitbit device. If, on the flip side, you're looking for something more discreet and aesthetically pleasing, Alta HR is the best way to go. Importantly, however, while the trackable elements are essentially the very same, the battery life is a bit better on the Alta HR. It was very simple to read the Alta's display, irrespective of whether I was in bright daylight or within a dark room. So finding the best one will be about a great deal more than price. During the setup process you are going to be requested to create or sign into a Fitbit account, where you may also decide any goals that you want to set like activity and sleep. The device can persist for a week on a single charge only, which is actually impressive taking into consideration its small size. Knowing your sleep patterns is essential info to get, as having a superb night's sleep is among the top priorities when maintaining fitness. Below this, you're given the choice to manually tack your exercise, together with your sleep performance. For example, you need your heart rate to keep at a fair level, and you will need to be sure you're burning calories. Admittedly, Fitbit has left out a number of capabilities. You're able to set the display to demonstrate time in a horizontal or vertical orientation. When it regards its smart features, it has all of them. There are various forms of Fitbit trackers, but don't worry, we'll tell you everything that you will need to understand so you are able to select the best Fitbit physical fitness tracker for you and your loved ones. It is easy, slim, tracks accurately, is affordably priced, and has all of the characteristics that the great majority of people could ever need. Fitbit are a reliable brand that arrive in a variety of different exercise tracking equipment alternatives, to suit the way you live and whether you need a brief overview or a more in depth image of your fitness. Instead select a brand, style, budget and select some essential features which you consider to be a must' as that will genuinely help you to filter down the total amount of choice available. If you wish to accessorize your Alta with the metallic bracelet or leather band, you will have to shell out some excess money. You can also get Tory Burch gift cards for your family members. If your Fitbit's band is beginning to break, you're need to benefit from the provider's warranty policy. Fitbit's accessory page also supplies a handful of different colours, along with different fashions of bangles and pendants. prev https://mobilemob.com.au/collections/fitbit-alta-bands-charger-cables This item was made by health enthusiast themselves, they made sure they're durable and simple to utilize for the ordinary individual.

If you're searching for a fitness tracker that will provide you with a good background on your activities at a reasonable price, the Charge 3 would suit you fine. As soon as it's not quite as feature-packed as the excellent Garmin Vivosmart HR, it is not really attempting to compete on such a level. I extremely enjoy the application. company website The reply to that is yes! https://beebom.com/best-fitbit-alta-hr-bands/ Despite many rash complaints throughout time, Fitbit stays the top rated wearable and potentially the most popular brand of fitness tracker in the marketplace. This review was made to help you to find that ideal product before you part with your hard-won cash. As soon as it's simple enough to take straps off, it's somewhat trickier to set them on. The horizontal face works fine too, but you are going to probably need to wear the band on the base of your wrist so it's possible to read it more easily. You will locate PurePulse heart rate sensor on the bottom of the devices. Which means, all you need to bear in mind is to wear your tracker to bed. Fortunately, you can customize the principal display via the Fitbit app so that all you need to do is raise your wrist to realize your heart rate. You're likely to have to take off the present band, and doing that is straightforward. There is a good number of customers' testimonials about the device on the web. There's no use in using the portal in the event the data isn't current. The huge bonus of employing any Fitbit device is the program. In general, Fitbit's app is among its strong points. You'll see the screen flash and begin to dim, at which point it is possible to forego the buttons. The display is rather simple to peruse. It sports a small dimensions, is simple to use and offers a great deal of options on the monitor. It is possible to wirelessly sync your data to Fitbit on your computer. how to reset fitbit alta hr You'll also have to check in the Fitbit app to see in depth progress. You are able to choose among different colours and sizes to make sure your Fitbit Charge HR is best for you. It's possible for you to conserve a number of sport profiles to the Charge 2, letting you easily begin a recorded workout from the gadget. If you would like a system that looks sharp, this may be the correct fit, provided you are able it.

Khăn làm mát thể thao CoolFit là một sản phẩm mới ra mắt gần đầy tại Việt Nam, và mình cũng vừa trên tay nhanh sản phẩm này và hôm nay mình sẽ làm 1 bài Review nhanh về sản phẩm thú vị này. Với 1 người tập luyện đặc biệt là với những người tập luyện ngoài trời thì thời tiết nắng nóng là kẻ thù không đội trời chung đúng không nào. Khi thời tiết nắng nóng, chúng ta nhanh chóng xuống sức hơn rất nhiều so với thời tiết mát mẻ, ảnh hưởng không nhỏ đến chuyện tập luyện của mình vì vậy tìm kiếm giải pháp giải nhiệt cấp tốc chính là phương án tối ưu nhất. Bình thường cách giải nhiệt nhanh nhất đó chính là đổ nước lên người. Tuy nhiên, trong nhiều trường hợp thì nước là thứ rất quan trọng và không phải lúc nào cũng có sẵn, đặc biệt là trong quá trình thi đấu như đạp xe, chạy bộ địa hình thì không phải lúc nào cũng có trạm tiếp nước kịp thời cho bạn và bạn phải tiết kiệm từng giọt nước khi thi đấu. Vì thế giải pháp đổ nước lên người sẽ không khả thi trong các trường hợp này. Lúc này, 1 chiếc khăn làm lạnh như CooFit chính là giải pháp. [adrotate banner="556"] Xem thêm: So sánh Garmin ViviSport và VivoSmart 3 – Lựa chọn nào tốt ?

Khăn làm mát thể thao CoolFit hoạt động như thế nào ?

Trước khi đi vô phần chính thì mình nói sơ qua 1 chút về cách hoạt động của chiếc khăn làm lạnh này như sau

Bước 1: Khăn làm mát muốn mát thì sẽ cần phải làm ướt trước, thực tế thì bạn không cần phải đổ nước lên khăn vì chúng ta đang phải tiết kiệm nước mà, do vậy nó sẽ được làm ướt nhờ...mồ hôi của chúng ta.

Bước 2: Khi chiếc khăn được làm ướt, nếu ướt quá nhiều, bạn chỉ cần vắt cho ráo bớt nước, sau đó vẩy mạnh vài cái cho ráo hẳn nước.

Bước 3: Đặt khăn lên vị trí muốn làm mát và cảm nhận sự mát lạnh như được ướp trong thùng đá ra thôi.

Nhờ đâu mà chiếc khăn này có thể làm được như vậy ?

Theo như mình tìm hiểu thì chiếc khăn làm mát CoolFit này sử dụng công nghệ dệt riêng với các lớp thoáng khí đặc biệt trên bề mặt, ngoài ra sản phẩm còn kết hợp giữ 2 loại vải là Polyester - với khả năng chống nhăn, chống tia UV, cách nhiệt mạnh - và Polyamide - với độ bền cao khả năng thấm hút mạnh. Chính nhờ công nghệ dệt và khả năng thấm hút nhanh, cách nhiệt mạnh đã giúp cho chiếc khăn này có khả năng giảm nhanh nhiệt độ thần kỳ như vậy. Nói về công nghệ dệt thì mình có tìm mua thêm 1 số loại khăn làm mát thể thao khác có trên thị trường về để so sánh các bạn có thể nhìn ở hình bên dưới.   [caption id="attachment_25938" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Chất liệu dệt của CoolFit tốt hơn hẳn so với các sản phẩm cùng loại khác (tất cả đều là sản phẩm mới khui hộp)[/caption] Như hình thì các bạn có thể thấy rõ là các sản phẩm khác trên thị trường với giá rẻ hơn thì đi kèm đó chất lượng vải dệt cũng kém hơn. Thậm chí có sản phẩm nhìn phần vắt sổ còn bị tưa vải rất nhiều. Chiếc khăn thể thao CoolFit có đường chỉ sắc nét hơn, dày hơn so với các sản phẩm tương tự khác trên thị trường.

Cảm nhận bạn đầu

Khi mua chiếc khăn làm mát thể thao này về thì chiếc khăn được đóng gói bên trong 1 chiếc bao nhựa nhìn chung là cũng khá đẹp, sản phẩm này có tặng kèm thêm 1 cái móc khóa. Các bạn có thể dùng cái móc khóa này để móc vô xe, hay balo để mang theo khá tiện. Chiếc khăn mình thử nghiệm là màu Xám, sản phẩm này có 3 màu là Xám, Xanh Dương và Hồng Tím. Mình thích màu Xanh Lá nhưng lại không có màu này cũng hơi buồn nhẹ một chút. Cảm nhận đầu tiên khi cầm sản phẩm này đó là cảm giác rất mềm như bạn đang xoa bàn tay của em gái nào đó vậy, so với các sản phẩm khác mình mua kèm để mang về đánh giá thì nó mềm mịn hơn rất nhiều, cầm rất sướng tay :D.

Kiểm tra khả năng thấm hút

Để tìm hiểu xem sản phẩm của CoolFit có khả năng thấm hút ra sao thì thì mình có làm 2 bài kiểm tra như sau. Bài kiểm tra số 1 [caption id="attachment_25930" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Hình ảnh trước và sau khi thấm hút với khăn làm mát thể thao CoolFit chỉ với 1 lần lau duy nhất[/caption] Mình đổ 1 ít nước trên tay, sau đó dùng các khăn làm mát này lau qua 1 lần (trong khi khăn còn khô) và kiểm tra lại xem lượng nước còn lại trên cánh tay như thế nào. Do hình ảnh nước trên tay sau khi lau hơi khó phân biệt bằng hình ảnh nên mình chỉ demo với hình ảnh sau khi lau của CoolFit. Các mẫu khăn khác thấm hút rất kém và nó sẽ thể hiện rõ nhất ở bài kiểm tra thứ 2 Bài kiểm tra thứ 2 Tất cả các khăn được gấp lại làm 5, sau đó thả vào tô nước và xem thử chiếc khăn nào sẽ chìm xuống hoàn toàn. [caption id="attachment_25931" align="aligncenter" width="1092"] Khăn làm mát CoolFit có thời gian thấm hút cực kỳ ấn tượng[/caption] Ở bài thử nghiệm này, các khăn làm mát thể thao khác cho khả năng thấm hút cực kỳ chậm, thời gian trên hình là mình phải dùng tay nhấn nó xuống để nó dễ thấm hơn chứ nếu mà ngồi chờ nó thấm thì chắc phải mất cả 5 phút chứ không đùa vì nó khá là khó thấm nước. [caption id="attachment_25939" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Biểu đồ thời gian thấm hút của từng loại khăn làm mát[/caption] Riêng khăn CoolFit thì mình chỉ cần đặt vô nước là nó thấm hút rất nhanh, chỉ trong 15 giây là toàn bộ mặt khăn đã ướt đẫm như trên hình thể hiện.

Đánh giá khả năng làm mát

Sẵn kiểm tra khả năng thấm hút thì mình cũng làm luôn bài kiểm tra về khả năng làm mát của các chiếc khăn lạnh này tới đâu bằng cách, nhúng lần lượt các khăn vào trong tô nước nóng (71 độ C), vắt khô và vẩy mạnh 3 cái sau đó đo nhiệt độ lại các khăn sau 20 giây kể từ lúc lấy khăn ra khỏi nước nóng. [caption id="attachment_25932" align="aligncenter" width="1118"] CoolFit cho khả năng mát hơn so với 2 mẫu còn lại khá nhiều (bài test ở nhiệt độ thường)[/caption] Như vậy các bạn có thể nhận thấy sự khác biệt của các chiếc khăn này như thế nào đúng không nào. [caption id="attachment_25940" align="aligncenter" width="672"] Biểu đồ nhiệt độ của các loại khăn[/caption]

Đa năng

Bên cạnh việc sử dụng chiếc khăn làm mát thể thao này như 1 chiếc khăn lau mồ hôi và làm mát thông thường thì bạn còn có thể sử dụng chiếc khăn trong nhiều trường hợp khác ví dụ như làm nón khi đi ngoài trời nắng, hoặc làm khẩu trang khi chạy xe (mấy bạn phượt đảm bảo sẽ rất thích điều này). Với chiều dài tới 100cm thì bạn có thể dùng khăn để quấn làm nhiều kiểu khác nhau (bạn có thể xem trên trang chủ CoolFit.Asia của sản phẩm để biết thêm).

Trải nghiệm thực tế

Mình có mang cái khăn này đi tập chạy bộ trong thời tiết nắng nóng ở Sài Gòn để kiểm tra thử coi hiệu quả thực tế nó thế nào thì cảm nhận là nó mát hơn hẳn so với việc dùng khăn bình thường để lau mồ hôi, nó vừa giúp mình làm sạch mồ hôi nhanh lại giúp dùng chính mồ hôi của mình để làm mát cơ thể mình tốt hơn giúp cho việc chạy bộ đường dài trở nên "dễ thở" hơn trước. Có 1 điểm mà các bạn có thể lưu ý là chữ CoolFit.Asia có thể sẽ bị "nứt nẻ" sau vài lần giặt và vắt. Mình nghĩ cái này thì hiện tại chưa có sản phẩm nào có thể giữ nguyên được trạng thái như khi "đập vỏ" được. Chiếc săn CoolFit đã được mình sử dụng và vắt nhiều lần nhưng phần "nứt nẻ" cũng chỉ hiện khá ít, không như các sản phẩm mua kèm về chỉ để kiểm tra thôi mà đã có cái "bay mất chữ" ngay từ lần đầu sử dụng rồi.

Kết luận

Mình tóm gọn lại một số điểm mạnh yếu của khăn làm mát CoolFit cho các bạn như sau: [letsreviewunique title="Đánh giá tổng quan" pros_title="Ưu điểm" pros="Mềm mại cầm sướng tay,Độ bền cao,Thấm hút siêu nhanh,Làm mát tức thì,Đường chỉ may sắc nét,Chống tia UV" cons_title="Điểm yếu" cons="Ít màu sắc lựa chọn" criterias="Khả năng làm mát,96,Tính tiện dụng,92,Chất liệu và độ bền,94,Giá cả,88" accent="#444" final_score="92" format="2" skin="1" animation="1" design="1" accent="#1e73be"][/letsreviewunique]   Với chiếc khăn làm mát thể thao CoolFit có giá 199k này thì việc hoạt động thể thao ngoài trời nóng giờ đây không còn là 1 trở ngại nữa. Với một chiếc khăn chất lượng cao như thế này chúng ta sẽ có thể bứt phá giới hạn của mình tốt hơn và chinh phục các cuộc thi khó khăn dễ dàng hơn trước.

Withings announces the Pulse HR fitness tracker with 20-day battery life

Withings has announced a new fitness tracker called the Pulse HR, a follow-up to 2013’s Withings Pulse.

The Pulse HR comes with a PPG heart rate sensor, connected GPS, and 20-day battery life.

It’s available for pre-order now for $129.95.

Withings has been focused on analog hybrid smartwatches for a few years now, but today it’s getting back into the fitness tracker game. The Withings Pulse HR is the company’s new fitness tracker, a follow-up to the Withings Pulse from 2013.

The Pulse HR’s $130 price tag puts it head-to-head with other fitness trackers like the Fitbit Charge 3 and Garmin Vivosmart 4. At least under the hood, the Withings device seems to keep up with the competition. It comes with a photoplethysmography (PPG) heart rate sensor, which will measure your heart rate in 10-minute intervals throughout the day and continuously during activities. You can also track your activities with GPS if you don’t mind taking your phone with you when you go out for a run.

Withings Steel HR review

The Pulse HR also has a 5ATM water resistance rating, the ability to track up to 30 different activities, automatic activity recognition, and 20-day battery life. That beats the pants off the Charge 3 and Vivosmart 4’s seven-day battery life.

Withings says the Pulse HR has a “modern design,” but I’d have to disagree — it looks decidedly generic and doesn’t have that Withings flair we’ve seen with devices like the Steel HR. 

If you’re interested, you can pre-order the Withings Pulse HR now from Amazon or Withings.com for $129.95. It’ll officially go on sale December 5, just in time for the holidays.

Garmin Vivosmart 4 review: An affordable band for easy fitness, SpO2 data

Enlarge (credit: Valentina Palladino)

Fitness tech companies, particularly Fitbit and Garmin, want to monitor the level of oxygen in your blood. It's a metric that could help spot signs of sleep apnea and other breathing-related problems, so companies have been scrambling to perfect their SpO2 sensors and incorporate this data into their ecosystems in a meaningful way.

Fitbit still hasn't activated its SpO2 monitors in its wearables (although that feature should roll out in beta in November), but Garmin has. Its newest fitness tracker, the $129 Vivosmart 4, includes an SpO2 monitor and measures Body Battery, which lets you know when you should plan your next intense workout session and when you should take a rest day.

Those two features, in addition to an all-new design and an affordable price, attempt to push the Vivosmart 4 above the rest of the fitness tracker crowd. As we saw with Fitbit's Charge 3, trackers have fallen into a boredom trap as of late, so companies are trying to find unique ways to capture the attention of potential customers who aren't fully sold on smartwatches. While Garmin achieves a certain level of differentiation with the Vivosmart 4, it's unlikely that everyone who prefers fitness bands to smartwatches will gravitate toward this device.

Fitbit, Garmin, and all of the best fitness trackers in one place

New Post has been published on https://fitnessqia.com/must-see/fitbit-garmin-and-all-of-the-best-fitness-trackers-in-one-place/

Fitbit, Garmin, and all of the best fitness trackers in one place

Exercise, am I right? Whether you’re reading this because you genuinely love working out or because Instagram models and your love for pizza force you to exercise, one thing’s for sure: A fitness tracker that fits your needs is a necessity.

One problem: The wearable fitness market grows by the month. No longer are hardcore athletes the only ones keeping up with their calories and mileage — these babies continue to take over the lives of us regular folk more and more by the year.

SEE ALSO: Want to get serious about fitness? Here’s what you need to get started.

And with this surge to the everyday consumer, it seems like not a day goes by without a new wearable fitness tracker hitting the market. Oh, there’s a new Fitbit (again)? There’s a fancy ring that tracks your steps and calories? Because of course, why wouldn’t there be? 

We’re not complaining, though.

We all have those days where we need an extra sprinkle of motivation to get up and get going — even the biggest fitness junkies wanna stay on the couch sometimes. Plus, when you can’t tell how much working out or running is actually helping, it’s kind of hard to stay excited about the whole fitness thing.

via GIPHY

Good news: Nothing says motivation like the perfect fitness tracker. Fitness trackers can help you slay your personal goals and prove to yourself that your hard work is actually paying off.

Fitness trackers aren’t just for fitness junkies. Tracking your calories, steps, sleep, and heart rate are features that most trackers have, and these are seriously handy when it comes to keeping track of your general health. 

Our top pick for the best fitness tracker right now is the Fitbit Charge 2: No, we didn’t just pick it because it’s the name everyone knows — it’s genuinely a top-tier piece of arm candy. While Fitbit has a ton of high quality models, the Charge 2 is absolutely the best bang for your buck. It’s not the cheapest of the lot (priced at $149.95 or $119.95 on sale), but its slim, stylish look, OLED color screen, and personal cardio fitness scores on top of the traditional features make it a steal for the price. There’s a reason it’s Fitbit’s #1 best-seller, y’all.

Don’t worry, newbies — there are fitness trackers for every skill level, most of which are super simple to use without a steep learning curve.  Check out our list of what’s on the market and the basics of different trackers, as well as combination fitness trackers and smartwatches.

Best everyday tracker

Image: moov

The Good

Affordable • Real-time audio coach • Phenomenal battery life • Range of colors

The Bad

No GPS • Cheap-looking design • No smartphone notifications

The Bottom Line

A perfectly low maintenance tracker to ease you into the world of exercising.

1. Moov Now

Battery life: 6 months

GPS: No

Waterproof: Yes

$60

See Details

From Amazon

The fitness tracking world doesn’t have to be intimidating — the award winning Moov Now makes everything chill and easy, which is exactly what you need if you’ve psyched yourself out about exercising. At $59.95, it’s one of the cheaper trackers on our list, but that low price doesn’t make for shitty quality: Aside from the expected step and sleep tracking, it also acts as a personal fitness coach, with real-time audio feedback as well as detailed running, cycling, cardio boxing, and super advanced swimming data, all stored in the Moov smartphone app. Made for training, Moov Now also shows you how to work out in proper intervals for the fastest, safest #gains. The only thing it doesn’t have is GPS — but it is waterproof with a battery life of six months, so we’ll let the GPS slide. Choose from eight colors and get yours for $59.99 here.

Baby’s first Fitbit

Image: fitbit

The Good

Move reminders • Automatic workout recognition • Interchangeable bands • Range of colors

The Bad

No screen • No GPS

The Bottom Line

A great general purpose tracker with virtually no learning curve.

2. Fitbit Flex 2

Battery life: 5-7 days

GPS: No

Waterproof: Yes

$77

See Details

From Amazon

If you’re set on getting a Fitbit but need an easy way in, the Fitbit Flex 2 is a good, no-intense place to start. We like to think that the “Flex” in the name means “flexible.” Designed as a more general-purpose tracker, the Flex 2 is thin, light, subtle, and what Fitbit refers to its “most iconic and customizable tracker ever.” This is because the actual tracking piece can be removed to fit into numerous bands, bangles, and necklace pendants, making it flexible enough to fit any lifestyle, style preference, and outfit. Really, it’s perfect for anyone and everyone who wants to get more serious about fitness — even if you’ve never worked out a day in your life.  It tracks the usual steps, calories, and sleep, and will remind you to move if you’ve been sitting for too long, but the stand-out feature is that it’s Fitbit’s first swim-proof tracker. (It can also get call and text notifications like a smartwatch would.) Though it does benefit from SmartTrack for automatic workout recognition, it doesn’t have a screen (only uses an app) and is much less advanced than its siblings, making it a perfect first Fitbit or a tracker for kids or people who don’t want to squint to see a small screen. Get the Flex for $76.99 here.

Best bang for your buck

Image: fitbit

The Good

Personalized fitness scores • Heart rate monitor • Large OLED touchscreen

The Bad

No GPS • Not waterproof

The Bottom Line

The mother of all Fitbits, the Charge 2 combines rare health and fitness features that we usually only see in smart watches.

3. Fitbit Charge 2

Battery life: 5 days

Waterproof: No

GPS: No

$150

See Details

From Amazon

All-day stress tracking • Always-on touchscreen • Smartphone notifications and weather updates • Decent price for all it does

Waterproof: No

$79

From Amazon

The Garmin Vivosmart 3 is the thinnest (and best looking IMO) of the brand’s line, but there’s a lot packed into this little device that makes it helpful for people who aren’t runners or gym-goers. The Vivosmart 3 isn’t just a fitness tracker, but a stress tracker as well (AKA it will be ace to wear at work or while traveling). The heart rate monitor measures your heart rate while it’s resting to give you a stress score, with a guided breathing feature designed to lower stress when the score is too high.  The Vivosmart 3 also gives a VO2 max fitness score, your fitness “age,” monitors strength training by tracking sets, reps, and rest times that can be reviewed on the app — a feature that many trackers don’t have. The Vivosmart 3 automatically syncs to your phone and uses Move IQ to know when you’ve started a workout, making the process pretty seamless. You’ll see all of that on a gorgeous color touch screen, which is always a bonus. Get the Vivosport 3 for $79 here or wait a few weeks and get the classy Vivosmart 4 here. (For runners really itching for that built-in GPS, you can snag the Vivosmart HR+ for $95.99 here.) 

Best for anti-phone people

Image: tomtom

The Good

Phone-free music • GPS • Impressive battery life • Comes with waterproof headphones

5. TomTom Spark 3

Battery life : 11 hours

GPS: Yes

Waterproof: No

$235

From Amazon

There are two types of people in this world: Those whose smartphones are a third limb, and those who take days to text back and leave their phone untouched whenever possible. If you’re part of the latter group, the TomTom Spark 3 Cardio+Music could be the tracker for you. Not only does it have built-in GPS (for new route exploration and, uh, not getting lost) but also has a built-in music player — AKA you don’t need to awkwardly carry your phone while running. Finding a fitness tracker with built-in music is rare — Garmin has one, but it’s pricey (like over $400 pricey). Anti-phone people no longer have to choose between necessary workout jams and keeping both hands free. This puppy has an impressive battery life of three weeks if you turn GPS off — but we’re guessing you don’t want to do that. Even with it on, the device is said to last 11 hours on one charge, which is still stellar compared to competitors. Music can be stored locally on the tracker or paired via Bluetooth if you do bring your phone — except you can also set up smartphone notifications on your TomTom, so a phone is seriously not necessary. Aside from the cool built-in stuff, the TomTom Spark 3 tracks your distance, speed, calories, sleep, swimming, and can differentiate between indoor and outdoor workouts. The bundle also comes with a pair of Bluetooth headphones, because TomTom is nice like that. Get it for $234.99 here. 

Most discreet tracker

The Good

Unique fitted ring design • Multi-day battery life • Stores data without phone syncing • Works with Alexa

6. Motiv Ring

Battery life: 3 days

GPS: No

Waterproof: Yes

$200

From Amazon

If you really can’t stand the look and feel of bracelet fitness trackers (no matter how sleek or inconspicuous they are) that doesn’t mean you’re out of luck or have to clip something nerdy9your shirt. The Motiv Ring is a tiny metal band you’ll actually want to wear. It tracks activity, sleep, and heart rate, and it can be worn 24/7 — even in the shower or while swimming. Motiv’s battery can last up to three days on a single charge, can store your data for up to five days without being synced to a phone, and uses a super nice-looking smartphone app to tell you about your progress. (The Android version used to only be beta, but now it’s official.) And, if you download the Motiv skill on your Echo device, you can ask Alexa about your progress, data from previous days, and can even help you find your lost phone. We’re really not kidding about the 24/7 thing, by the way. Aside from being waterproof, you can pretty much ensure that your ring won’t fall off or slip and slide around during high movement activities. Before you receive your actual ring, Motiv will send you a sizing set to find your size, allowing you to choose the finger that would be most comfortable for your ring to sit on. It is slightly larger than a traditional ring, but if you’re used to wearing a ring every day anyway, you probably won’t even notice that it’s there — and it’s certainly less noticeable than an arm band fitness tracker.  Get your Motiv Ring for $199.99 here.

Fitness trackers that double as actual smart watches

From Amazon

If running is your thing (or the thing of the person you’re gifting to) the Garmin Forerunner 235 is a beast of a device made for those who take running very seriously. I mean, there’s a reason “runner” is in the name: With Garmin Connect, runners can choose from four running settings (including indoor and outdoor running) and customize their workouts and goals to match their skill level. And don’t worry, Garmin’s impressively fast GPS and GLONASS mapping is able to keep up. For indoor treadmill running, the built-in accelerometer comes in handy to keep track of distance and pace without the need of an extra device on your whoe. Garmin’s Elevate™ heart rate technology is also notable to track workout intensity, with a colorful gauge that lets you know your rate in real time to let you know if anything wonky is up. Aside from running settings, this Amazon’s Choice tracker acts like a traditional activity tracker by counting calories, steps, and sleep, and also reminds you to move if it senses that you’ve been sitting for over an hour. Get the Forerunner 235 for $249.99 here.  (Hardcore runners who are easily bothered by extra accessories on their arms should check out the Milestone Pod: A tracker that hangs onto your shoelace and helps to improve running performance through tracking cadence, stride length, ground contact, foot strike, rate of impact, leg swing, and total shoe mileage in addition to the more traditional wearable metrics like pace, steps, and calories burned.)

From Amazon

If you’re looking for something more than a fitness tracker but less intense than an Apple watch, the new Samsung Gear Sport may be for you. It features water resistance up to 50 meters, built-in GPS, automatic workout recognition, stretch reminders, activity and calorie tracking (eaten and burned) and acts as a personal fitness coach on your wrist. If you’re stubborn when it comes to healthy eating (raises hand), have trouble committing to a diet, or are on a wonky sleep schedule, the Gear Sport wants to act as your motivation to keep up with your goals. The powerful device also falls into the smartwatch category: Enjoy receiving and responding to calls and texts, Spotify playback, real-time control of compatible smart devices like appliances, locks, and lights, and access to all of your favorite apps like Twitter or the Pear personal coaching app. This is all compiled into a compact device that actually looks like a classic round watch, and it weighs next to nothing. Get it for $249.99 here.

Best fitness tracker/smartwatch combo

The Good

Guided runs and in-ear coaching • LTE support • Calling and texting

The Bad

From Amazon

The new Apple Watch Series 3 with Nike+ is pretty much the ultimate combo of smartwatch and fitness tracker. It sports a sleek, rectangle design and looks less like a traditional round watch, with smartwatch features like LTE support, calls and texts, music streaming, and phone notifications. As a fitness tracker, the Series 3 has a super accurate heart rate monitor and alerts you of any abnormalities. (There’s also an FDA-approved Apple Watch band that can run legit EKGs without going to the doctor.) Nike+ takes running to the next level with guided runs, motivational notifications, and in-ear coaching — perfect for newbies or people who need an extra push to get up and going. Though the Apple Watch does not automatically recognize that you’ve started an exercise, you can simply launch the workout app (or any other third-party app). The expected GPS, water resistance, and distance tracking are also present, and there’s actually a slightly less expensive version of this Apple Watch Series 3 that is GPS only (no LTE) starting at $329. Get the Apple Watch with Nike+ for $429 here.

Listen, the fact that you’re even reading this is a step in the right direction to a healthy lifestyle. These trackers won’t do the work for you, but they can at least take the “I can’t even tell if it’s working,” doubts that a lot of us having about our progress. When you can see your results paying off in the numbers and how you’re improving week to week, you’ll be more inspired than ever to crush the hell out of your fitness goals.
