my thoughts on the Apple Watch vs. the Fitbit Alta

my thoughts on the Apple Watch vs. the Fitbit Alta January 12, 2024 at 01:00PM Hey hey! How are you? Hope you’re enjoying the morning. No Sugar January is off to a strong start! I probably should have specified that it didn’t mean zero sugar at all (wine is technically a sugar, fruit is a sugar. This can get a little extreme) but no sweets or added sugar. For example, I’m having protein powder and MCT oil in my oatmeal instead of a giant drizzle of maple syrup. Workout-wise, I got in a killer legs and HIIT workout Monday, and a nice aerial yoga class yesterday. (I’ll share the details in a Focus On post soon!) This morning, I’m teaching barre, and getting in my personal workout during naptime. I don’t really love working out during naptime since it’s my chance to blitz on work, but I’ve found that if I don’t work out during P’s nap, it gets harder and harder to squeeze it in as the day goes on. Before I know it, I’m cleaning up from dinner, giving the girls baths, and ready to crawl onto the couch for the night. Apple Watch vs. the Fitbit Alta Something that has helped a lot with my motivation to get moving and stay active throughout the day has been my Apple Watch. I’m a huge fan of fitness trackers – I’ve used multiple Fitbit models, the Tom-Tom Spark 3, Garmins, Polars, I’m kind of a nerd about fitness trackers – and the latest fave is the Apple Watch. It’s sporty but cute enough to wear every day, and the stats and interface are amazing. When I switched over to the Apple Watch, I’d been wearing a Fitbit for the most part, and most recently the FitBit Alta. I like that the Alta is much smaller than other fitness trackers and it gave me similar stats (plus the heart rate model tracks your heart rate). I’ve been a Fitbit fan for years and have consistently used the Fitbit as an effective way to track my steps and workout stats. I’d been eyeing the Apple Watch for about a year, but wasn’t sure if the cost would be worth switching over. When we first moved to Valdosta, we attended an auction for Liv’s new school, and on one of the tables was an Apple Watch. I decided to put it into destiny’s hands. A couple of mint juleps later, and lurking around the auction table, I was the proud new owner of an Apple Watch 2 (and a pair of Prada sunglasses. Yolo.
