A question I get asked frequently is “what fitness activity tracker is best?” If I’m being honest, I can only really comment on the one I have. I haven’t compared or tested any to be able to offer a fair opinion of performance or durability.
With that said, I’d like to share with you some in-depth research as a useful guide from the research team at reviews.com. They have spent 6 months testing and evaluating 87 fitness trackers currently on the market, ranging from sensor accuracy and battery life, to band style and comfort. They also personally tested their finalists to come up with the top three picks: best under £75, best heart-rate monitoring, and best heart-rate monitoring + GPS.
I have purchased the a Garmin Vivofit Junior for my 9 year old sons Christmas present. It comes with a parent app too which allows you to see their progress and encourage activity. I’m very excited to see the data and it will give me more information of how active he really is at school!
With the New Year right around the corner, a fitness tracker can be a great motivational tool to help you achieve your health and fitness goals. A great idea to add to your Santa list!
