Find your FIT! #FITBIT

Happy-Fit Wee-Fit Wow-Fit Woah-Fit... FIND YOUR FIT! #FITBIT

Remember those pedometers you got assigned to in elementary school to record your daily steps? Well, here is something you can have fun with just like all those years ago... only this little gadget is way more advanced! If you aren't already a FitBit user, I recommend you become one. 

A FitBit is a wireless activity tracker. My mom and I have the FitBit-Zip, they clip on your pants, belt loop, sports-bra... they're the cutest and most super powerful machines! Actually, I'll be surprising my dad with the new wristband FitBit Flex, a band to be worn around the wrist, which also projects the current user's heart-rate. 
If you want to know what your average maximum heart rate is, here is how you calculate it:


220-Your Age = TARGET HEART RATE

(We don't usually want to workout at our maximum heart rate. You should typically experience around 65-85 BPM)

So for example, if you are 20 years old,
220-20= 200 BPM
Between 50-80% of 200 BPM is 100-170 BPM, which is what you want your target HR to be when vigorously exercising.

Here is a FitBit Zip like mine, in Pink. I love the faces it makes! (The Zips come in Blue, Lime and Black)
