"Workout" feature gone since last update

[KissaJH]

Under the exercise category on Blaze there used to be an option to workout and track calories burned etc. Since the latest update that feature no longer exists. There's only options for run, bike, weights, treadmill, and elliptical. Of course I can just use any of these features but I want it to be as accurate as possible.

Help please.

Hi @KissaJH

1.Open App

2. Go to Account

3.Blaze

4. Exercise Shortcuts

5. + Exercise Shortcut

6. Add your Workout option or any other you wish for that matter (You can have up to 7 at a time) 7.Remember to sync.

Hope this helps.

That worked. Thanks so much!

Why does the newest update for the Fitbit blaze not have the selection of "workout" under the exercise page on the watch? I do interval workouts and yoga some and I don't have a way to track them since the update. Is there anyway to track them another way?

Click the gray'd gear in the upper right of your dashboard

Click on the picture of your Blaze

Scroll down toward the middle "Exercise shortcuts"

click "edit exercise shortcuts"

put a check next to workout (if it won't let you, delete one of the exercises you don't use - max 7)

click back to your dashboard

Next sync workout will be back 🙂

I can usually make these adjustments easily, but this one has turned into a huge waste of time. Fitbit should also add other, popular workouts, like HIIT, yoga, and cardio. This is a huge flaw.

Hi @jadie, welcome to the Community!  Yoga is available as a workout to be added through your Fitbit Dashboard. Now the HIIT and cardio are not there, however you can vote for this idea on our Feature suggestion board, so it might be added in the future. In the meantime you need to manually add this activity. 

Let me know how it goes!
