    Got a Colmi V75 for 6000LKR off Aliexpress, looks accurate enough (Heart rate and calorie count)

    TBH it's not the accuracy that matters when tracking fitness, it's meeting daily goals and surpassing previous records

    Fitness trackers යූස් කරන අය ඉන්නවද? තෑග්ගක් දෙන්න ඕන තාත්තට.එයා කැමැත්තෙන් ඉන්නවා ඒ වගේ එකකට හා ඇවිදිනවා කරනවා. apple smartwatch එකක් හරියන්නේ නැ. iphone එක යූස් කරන්නේත් නැ හා එක ටිකක් ඇඩ්වාන්ස් වැඩි එයාලට. galaxy fit3 එක තමා මුලින්ම හිතුවේ. හැබැයි ඒකේ ගොඩක් syncing issues තියෙනවා කියලා දැක්ක හා tracking data ගොඩක්ම accurate නැ කියල දැක්ක. මිට අමතරව මොනවද recommend කරන්න පුලුවන්. ගොඩාක් ගානක් එකක් අරගෙනත් තේරුමක් නැ. (ලංකාවෙන් නෙමේ ගන්නේ)

    fitbit වගේ කොහොමද හෝ xiaomiලගේ මොකක්හරි හොද එකක් තියෙයිද?

    That is the expectation but reality is different .

    I talk about the fitness watch by the way 😏

    That's the thing, I went from 95Kg--->65Kg between 2017---->2021 and neglected my cardio and now back to 70Kg so I started running on my elliptical trainer again starting from September. Like you said there are periods we fall off the wagon but that doesn't mean I shouldn't have bought an elliptical trainer in the first place, I wouldn't have lost any weight in the first place then

    It's important to keep tabs on your progress, even when you feel discouraged because the scale doesn't move backwards you can look at the fitness watch report and think "no worries, atleast I burned 800cal worth of fat today"

    And it keeps you motivated to beat your previous time and burn more calories than before.

    if the person is not training for competition . Doing regular work out is enough , should keep the food intake also same . Basically no need a watch your brain can understand well . Just need a weight in per week ones that data is more than enough

    It's not about data OR bespoke workout routines, it's about having something tangible to affirm your hard work

    Sometimes you exercise for weeks without seeing any change on the scale. Quite frustrating when you feel like you have achieved nothing, this is when you can open the fitness tracker app and review your workout history to see the level of effort you've been putting in - which motivates you to stay committed and not break your streak

    Work outs does not burn your fat , its your food intake . More you work out your muscles will get stronger and bigger , stamina will improve.

    The fact you told months workout and no change means food intake is same . To get result to weight down food should be cut off and organized . To build that also same need more food plus more workouts .

    Fitness tracker is like jerking off , fun for that time, normal people not analyze data like athletes

    And it helps burn more calories than if you were sedentary, boosts your endurance and improves your cardiovascular and overall health

    Plus it raises your BMR

    LIke I've been saying normies like us don't buy a fitness tracker to analyze data and customize workouts like athletes do, we get one to track our workout session streak for motivation

    That is the reason i told watch does not effective . I guess mirror and over roll health is more effective for motivation .

    Few months or weeks will use the watch then you cant even find it or low battery . I have seen them lot of houses like that abandoned
