FitBit Friends #ReadersWorkouts
Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where book lovers share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges.
My FitBit is still proving to be a great tool for motivating movement during the day. As a result of last week’s post, I now have a couple of friends on the FitBit site. I’m still figuring out how that works, but I think if you know my gmail address (all three of my names smashed together), you can invite me. You can invite me on my normal yahoo address, too — it will fail but I get a chance to invite you back, which works.
How are you doing with exercise through the middle of May? We’re certainly having some beautiful days here to spend outdoors either walking or working in the yard.
For Readers’ Workouts, talk about your fitness activities on your blog (feel free to grab the logo) and link to your post below or join us in the comments! Be sure to visit the other participants to see how we all did.
I’m glad you’re loving your Fitit!
I think I meant Fit bit, not fit it! LOL!
I couldn’t figure out how to add you as a fitbit friend, but the address I use on there is the yahoo.com version of my gmail address.
The one drawback to my fitbit flex is that when I do a serious workout, sweat accumulates inside the band. I tried taping it up with varying degrees of success. Right now I’m nursing a bruise-to-be on one arm which took several good elbow strikes last night in sparring class. Practicing your defensive techniques means you get attacked more, and if your defenses need work, you also get hit more…
Oh I am off to friend request you on Fitbit! It is such a great motivator. I also just found out about another app, Everymove, that you can sync with your fitbit and earn points to redeem for fitness-related stuff or even to donate to charity.
Happy stepping! I hope you enjoy the fitbit, it’s made a monster out of my husband
I just posted my running update… 10pm!
I’ve been hitting the gym lately! Yay for me! But I’m in love with Jeannine’s fit bit and how she imagines the fit bit talks to her, and so am thinking of getting one. You know, just so I can feel guilty for not walking down the hill to the ocean and back. (I know it’s Vancouver, but think of San Francisco. Yeah, that kind of hill.)
OK, this week I’m only doing mental exercise
My exams at university have begun and I’m only going to the swimming pool and not running this week because of them.
Besides this week the weather has been awful here: cold and rain all day, so the swimming pool is the only option for now.
I received a lovely birthday present in the form of a workshop to teach you to fitness walk correctly. I’m hoping that will motivate me…
