If you are someone who wants to make the most out of your time working out I’m sure you have come across the idea of purchasing a fitness watch. A fitness watch is designed to help you track a number of things during your workout like calories burned, heart rate, and time. Working out and finding motivation is hard enough as is so personally I like to make it as easy as possible on myself. I recently purchased an apple watch and I really love the impact it has had on my fitness. I feel more motivated when I can see the number of calories I have burned while I’m working out. In this post I plan to talk about 2 different watches, the Apple Watch and the Fitbit.
Apple Watch
The main intent of the Apple Watch is to replace your phone and have it accessible on your wrist. It can receive all notifications from your phone, and you can answer texts and calls as well as play music from it. The fitness side of it is an added feature but it’s not the main goal. You can track your workout by type and of course get the facts of your workout like calories burned, heart rate, and the length of your workout.
The reason why I love the apple watch is because I love the way you can accessorize it, you can switch out the bands to match any outfit. It also gives me a sense of security while I’m at work because I am able to see messages and respond when necessary without having to be on my phone. Along with that it’s another way to keep me motivated to work out because you can set up goals upon getting your watch. The goals are for how long you would like to stand, how many steps you would like to walk, and the number of calories burned per day. I really recommend this product.
Fitbit
The main goal of the Fitbit is to track your physical activity. Unlike the apple watch, you can’t respond to texts, answer calls, or play music. This is a good watch to purchase if you want one solely for the purpose of tracking your workouts, seeing how much you burn, and seeing your heart rate and time. The Fitbit also allows you to set up goals like how many steps you want to get in a day.
In my opinion, this watch is not as stylish as the Apple Watch but keep in mind the first goal is for fitness purposes .
As you can see, both watches would significantly support healthy exercise habits because of the way they keep you motivated and can show you exactly how hard you’re working. If you’re wanting to accessorize more, and have more connections with your phone, I would recommend the Apple Watch. If you’re not worried about the extra things and just focused on your workouts then go for the Fitbit. Keep in mind there are many variations of fitness watches and these are just 2 options. I hope you can use this information to purchase the best watch for you and keep you on your path to becoming happy, healthy, and beautiful.
Happy, Healthy Beauty
