3 COUNTS YOUR EVERY MOVE EVEN OUTSIDE THE GYM.

If you are skipping the gym or are not a fan of it, Fitbit wristbands still count your every step. You can challenge yourself to take 1,000 more steps than last week through its all-day activity tracking. Some users are challenged to burn more calories every day. These wristbands can tell you about your goals and when you should stand up (away from your laptop or gadget) and move!

4 ENCOURAGES YOU TO DO MORE.

The Fitbit Alta sends not only reminders to move but also cheers you on after you achieve your goals, no matter how minor they are! So in case your gym buddy cancels, you have a personal cheering squad on your wrist. The slim, customizable fitness tracker allows you to challenge yourself by setting goals in terms of your weight, calorie count, and even your hydration.

5 IT ACCEPTS YOU FOR BEING COMPETITIVE.

If your position on the leaderboard matters, then the Fitbit Alta’s interactive tool can be your best friend. Through an app, you can challenge a family member or a friend or yourself to move up the rankings. Fitbit challenges such as Daily Showdown, Weekend Warrior (most steps over the weekend), Workweek Hustle (most steps from Monday to Friday), Goal Day, and Adventures (solo challenges) are also available on the Fitbit app.

6 IT NEVER LETS YOU MISS A THING.

The wristband’s smartphone notification feature allows you to never miss a call, text message, or calendar notification. Get it on a bigger screen with the Charge 2 that, compared to the Charge HR, is four times bigger. The Alta has an easy-to-read OLED tap display that allows you to customize your clock face and layouts as well.
