    fitbit flex 2 with an ankle strap is the best ive found for accurately tracking steps.

    What do you think of red and near infrared light therapy? I purchased one of those lights recently and so far I like it.
    That walking pad looks a little too narrow as well. I won’t get that one :)

      I have a red light device that I have been using mostly to try to heal up a gnarley ankle tear that I’m still recovering from but it has improved greatly. What’s your experience with it ?
      For the walking pad - I actually like how narrow it is cuz it takes up less space that way. but otherwise there seems to be better options out there!

    did you adjust the tightness of the belt? if you’ve got that “jolt,” that typically means it’s not tight enough. just got mine today and gave it a try; we’ll see how it goes after a month.

      I do this and it works great! I had to swap the watch band tho, because my ankles were too thick for the ones I was using before.

      Putting your phone in your pocket might be an alternative. Assuming it contributes to step data. It relies less on a swing movement compared to a [smart] watch since phones are not expected to be in your hands while walking

    I use Google fit from my phone while walking which is connected to my watch and it syncs perfect.

    • @JayFriedrichs
      @JayFriedrichs  Місяць тому

      It’s not an issue of syncing. It’s an issue of hands not moving when on the desk

      @@JayFriedrichsput your phone in your pocket on your pants. Use any kind of step counting app on there - voila. On iPhones you can set the priority (like phone counts 1 step, watch counts 0 it usually takes the 0 from the watch, but you can reverse the priority order)

    I place my apple watch in a fanny pack or my pocket - solves tracking steps accurately.

    • @JayFriedrichs
      @JayFriedrichs  12 днів тому

      That wouldn’t work accurately because the accelerometer wouldn’t pick up movement. Might as well keep it on ur wrist at that point
