Are miles and calories burned on a Fitbit really count as exercise
I wear my Fitbit at work for 12 hours. I have a desk job and I sit most of the day however I do get to walk around, I go on walks on my breaks, up and down stairs etc. When I get home my Fitbit reads between 2-4 miles walked, 1200-1900 calories burned it just depends on the day. What I want to know do these readings really count as walking exercise
I meant 10k or more per day
For heart health the American heart association recommends 10 or more steps per day
No I'm not eating any more then my BMR to lose the amount of weight I need to. Does any one know how to add steps to the charts section
Ok so if you wear your Fitbit and walk 5 miles in 1 hour and 30 min don't believe the Fitbit on the calories it said you burned
Fitbit is just a way to develop OCD. You can tell if you're getting where you want to be by looking at your body, weighing yourself, and exercising -- nobody had ever needed something on their wrist to tell them these things. It's just a way to sell you something. This isn't a contest -- you don't win anything if you walk a certain number of steps a day. You win if you feel good, you're healthy, and you're not obese.
