If you’re in the states, then it’s likely you’re enjoying a three day weekend π Monday is Labor Day and I wish everyone had the day off; I know some don’t π¦
But I do!! And my husband does too!
We usually do our weekly grocery shopping on weekends and also go fun shopping. I love fun shopping.
In case you like fun shopping too, I have something new that’s fresh off the market for you to try.
It’s the Orbit from Runtastic.
Being a part of the Fit Approach community has allowed me to review some pretty cool stuff. This definitely tops the list.
I’ve always wanted to try a portable fitness tracker and this is only part of what the Orbit does. Among its main features of tracking steps, activity minutes, calories burned, distance, and what I’m most excited about–sleep!! The Orbit tells you how much “quality” sleep you’re getting. This interests me considering I’ve got two toddlers at home and I feel like I’m getting 0 quality sleep. At least now I can show proof.
Once I received the Orbit, I downloaded the Runtastic Me app on my phone and created an account. Doing this allows the Orbit to sync to my phone and keep track of everything. I’m the least tech savvy person of anyone I know but these first few steps were legit easy.
One of the features I’ve been playing with and have really liked are the videos that Runtastic has available FREE on youtube. You can access these videos straight from the app from your phone. Perfect for traveling and working out on the go!
I’m still playing around with it. There’s SO much fun stuff–like the personal challenges you can create–that I know I’ll like. I’ll be keeping you updated as I learn more π
Have a great Sunday!!!
–Do you own a fitness tracker?
–Do you ever wonder how much “real” sleep you’re getting?
I received the Orbit free as part of my affiliation with Fit Approach. All opinions are my own and so far, all opinions on the Orbit are positive. When and if I come across something that bugs me, I will def let you know!
Thanks for the review! I use a Nike+ GPS watch, and it works pretty well, but I always have my ears open.
I just saw another great review of the Orbit from Runtastic the other day! I may just have to try it out π
Love mine, such a great holiday wish list item! π
I’m so bummed I didn’t get to try one of these, it looks awesome. I used a Fitbit flex, but didn’t find it super user friendly.
Thanks for this great review! I am obsessed with the sleep part too! It’s super addictive.. and I love the little sunrise icon when you wake up in the morning.
Glad you’re enjoying the Orbit!
