Every step does count. Studies show using activity trackers gives you an accurate count for steps, heart rate, and sleep. They are also fun; they get you off the couch and moving! “One could say they are a wearable piece of accountability.” With built-in reminders to get up and moving, activity trackers serve as a launching point for better health.
Learn about different types of activity trackers, take a talk test, and set goals for yourself from University of Illinois Extension Nutrition and Wellness Educator, Susan Glassman. She will present research-based information on the benefits of using activity trackers for a healthy lifestyle. Get tips to get the most out of your activity tracker and join our Walking Club Challenge.
