I know a few who swear by them, worth getting the Heart Rate one if you're taking fitness seriously as it's worth knowing what HR bracket youre in

Taking it serious is a bit strong, but taking it more serious than I have done in the past few (or more years) is a bit more accurate ha!

Is it to strengthen the fingers for faster typing at the game

anyone use one? Thinking of getting one.
Just done my first session tonight at British Military Fitness and signed up for 6 months! Hope I make full use of that membership
Just looking to be able to track steps, distance etc and think a Fitbit is what I need!
Pretty satisfied with mine. Very reliable.

More to try and get my thumbs to know where the keys are do I can watch the game while typing. Already missed a few key moments through posting updates and having to look at my phone while doing so

Does it involve any kind of physical exertion? If so you can count me out!
That's exactly the attitude I want to move away from Dutchy
7 years of no fitness, I'm feeling it this morning. Maybe I should adopt that attitude again (although let me atleast get the membership I e signed up to out the way first so I'm not just paying to not use it
)

Not too fussed. When I have my phone on me that tracks steps, distance etc. But when I'm out on the 'field' (it's done at the park) I don't have my phone on me so it goes untracked.
Heart rate would be useful, although not sure how often I'd look or compare it ha!

I've got a FitBit Charge HR, pretty good but wish it had GPS too.

I've got the fitbit charge hr too. Its ok. The novelty wears off after a while. I don't wear mine now. Once you have it for a while you know roughly where you're with your HR and stuff so I'm not sure they're worth it. Get a cheap one to start with and see where you go from there. I excercise 5 times a week but its not something I find all that useful.

Blaze only has connected gps if you have your phone with you if you want proper GPs you need the Fitbit surge ...son and wife have a blaze bit gimmicky to me although being able to read your texts on your wrist is quite good

(These smileys really are shit).As for the Fitbit I had the HR for about 6 months before I lost it at the Stone Roses the other month and it is good but it can dominate your life a bit. I really liked the track your sleep function where it tells you how long you slept, quality of sleep etc. and it is good for bootcamp as it tells you how many calories you've burnt, heart rates (peak, fat burn etc.) and for a oner it is probably worth getting one, although you can get the next one up in Costco for £120.

now I know what BMF do, I'm gonna stick with it (if I don't I'll only talk myself out of doing anything ha!).
Have seen go commando stuff though.
They do similar sessions or completely different?
As for the smileys, we do need the old ones back

They look like the kind I imagine they have in a kiddy-fiddler's forum!

Too be honest I have never been BMF but saw a few of their sessions when in the Memorial Park and I'm sure it's much the same.
Do a few months there and then just come GCBC for a free session and see which one prefer.
This gives you an idea of what happens:
And I'm in that video..........for about a second. :bag:
