When I was younger I had a workout motivator that helped me out. We went to the gym together. He knew way more than I did, and for a year or so I was always in the gym or working out if I wasn’t at my real job. I still ate like garbage.
Today I am eating much better. I don’t have the time to spend every moment away from work in the gym. I do however, have another workout motivator. I keep this one on my wrist. It still knows way more than I do, and while not quite as insistent, it does remind me when I have more work to do. It does let me know when I’ve eaten too much or sat on my backside too long.
My workout motivator today is the Fitbit Surge. I settled on the Surge because I like cycling. It’s one of the few activity trackers that has a built in GPS and heart-rate monitors. That makes it perfect for my needs.
The sleep tracking, silent alarm, and ability to control my music without having to get my phone out while riding or running make this one awesome little tool. Checking throughout the day, the Surge reminds me when I need to get up and move around a little bit.
If you are in the market for an activity tracker and want one that does it all, I’d suggest the Fitbit surge.
