While checking my resting heart rate on my Fitbit and/or on my Fitbit app my heart rate will literally constantly change within seconds. It’ll jump from 73 to 84 or 85 in a matter of 5 seconds and then back down to 73 or 74 just as quickly. This happens even while I’m sitting completely still. Is this normal or is my Fitbit defective?
