Manually Tracking Exercise
As mentioned above, your Fitbit Charge HR automatically tracks several stats and
exercises throughout the day. Using the exercise mode feature, you can choose to
track precise stats for a specific activity as well.
Exercise mode works similar to the trip mode on a car’s odometer. For example, if
you put your tracker in exercise mode and use an elliptical machine, you can view
stats measured for that exercise, such as heart rate and calories burned. When you
end exercise mode and sync your data, you’ll see an entry for a “Workout” exercise
on your dashboard. The entry provides a summary of the activity's stats as well as a
minute-by-minute graph.
You should manually track exercises using the exercise tracking features on your
Fitbit Charge HR when if you want more detailed exercise data, including real-time
stats and workout summaries, on your Fitbit Charge HR.
To use exercise mode:
1. Press and hold the button until a stopwatch icon appears. Your tracker
vibrates, the timer starts counting immediately, and elapsed time is shown.
2. To view stats being tracked during the exercise, press the button to advance
through the stats, which appear in the following order:
• Elapsed time
• Current heart rate and heart rate zone
• Calories burned
• Steps taken
• Distance covered
• Floors climbed
• Time of day
3. When you finish the activity, press and hold the button to end exercise mode.
4. Sync your tracker to see your exercise in your activity history:
a. Click the Fitbit Connect icon located near the date and time on your
computer.
b. With your Fitbit Charge HR nearby, click Sync Now.
