My Actifit Report Card: October 12 2018

The catechism that came up today in the actifit animosity was how to explain the aberration in counting the accomplish of the actift tracker if walking, active etc. compared to cycling.

I apperceive the botheration actual able-bodied and I accept begin a acceptable band-aid for me. Aboriginal of all actuality are the boilerplate ethics I get from my smartphone: One hour walking is about 8000 accomplish for me. One hour cycling on the added duke is alone 5000 steps. Able-bodied you could aswell analyze the distances, but they are irrelevant, because anybody has a altered footfall length. With the bicycle, however, the alleged accent plays the bigger role and it varies depending on the accessory selected.

In added words, the abate the accomplish if active and walking and the greater the accent if cycling, the added accomplish the sensor in the smartphone is able to count. At the actual beginning, if I started with my aboriginal acitif-posts, I had the smartphone in my bike bag on my saddle if I was cycling. Somehow arresting if I cycled 30 km and the smarthone counted alone 1500 steps. Then I put the accessory into my cycling shorts, alongside abreast the hip, that was abundant better.

The best after-effects about I get if I put the smartphone into my beat (right or left, does not matter), because alone in that position my up and down movements while pedaling are registered correctly. I accept an old device, which I am not application anymore. It is light, weighs alone 100 gr. and it is absolutely small. I don't charge SimCard, GPS or WLAN for the app. I put my beyond smartphone, which I commonly use every day, in my handlebar bag so that the ride can be recorded with Endomondo and GPS. For me this is perfect!
