Tracking Exercise With a Fitness Tracker

Fitness trackers are a very popular fitness accessory in society right now. I love my knock-off Fitbit that I purchased at the beginning of this year, and use it everyday. But should you wear your fitness tracker all day? Even during times of sitting or just walking around the house? It is a tough question to answer. At least for me it challenged me to think about it a little. I think it all depends on how inactive you really are. Lately I have not been active outside the times that I exercise via fitness walking. The normal activities I do during the day do not involve much walking. So, I have decided to challenge myself to move more outside of fitness walking, but I am not going to wear my fitness tracking device while doing so. I really want to achieve my 10000 steps per day by way of heart pumping exercise. I don't want to achieve a bulk of those by way of just milling around the house.By all means, there is nothing wrong with gaining steps by just walking around doing your daily activities ( moving is moving and all moving is good!). I would just prefer to challenge myself to gain those steps during fitness walking so that I can increase my endurance.So, I will only wear my fitness tracking device during fitness walking, and try my best to reach 10000 steps per day. Wish me luck!
