One of the most popular presents of the year has to be the Fitbit. Even I got a Fitbit for Christmas this year, and I’m trying to make sense of it, how to use it, all that good stuff. I’ve also seen a lot of other people wearing Fitbits (now that I know what to look for on the wrist). With every new device there’s a bit of a learning curve; I’ve got a lot of questions about my Fitbit that I don’t really have answers for, but there’s help out there. PC World has put together a list of tips for getting the most out of your Fitbit.
I’ve been using my Fitbit to track my steps and the like, and I had no idea that I had to actually set a stride in order to get a proper measurement of just how far I’ve walked and how many steps I’ve actually taken. Likewise, I had no idea that the Fitbit would count calories for me, or work in common with MyFitnessPal. That’s all very helpful stuff to know, and if it would work with, say, my Daily Plate account, that’d be great. As it is, I have a lot of exploring to do with my new Fitbit.
