Hello together,
I have a Charge 6 since today and before a Garmin Instinct 2x.
Normally I do everyday treadmill walk at 4km/h, 17,5% incline for 45 mins.
My HR is around 120 - 125bpm.
Anyways, this leads to a distance of 3KM.
Garmin has the possibility to 'Calibrate & Save' after a treadmill workout.
Is there something similar in Fitbit, because Charge 6 is showing 3.67km.
My stride lenght settings are set to automatically.
Garmin has calculated stride lenght of 65cm.

Hi, @McLovinHawaii! Unfortunately, Fitbit doesn't have this feature.

So what would be a good workaround here?
Set the stride length to manual for walk to 65cm?
But then maybe it will not match to an outside walk, right?
Or this is not a big drama, because during walking outside gps is activated, right?

Did today morning again same treadmill session, a walk at 4km/h, 17,5% incline for 46 mins.
Before that set stride length to 65cm for Walking:
This time with 65cm its much better, Fitbit says 3,15Km
This is, what I had these days with Garmin (64cm stride length), also the calories are matching to Fitbit, I'm impressed 😊
For the next session I will adjust it to 64cm.
Lets see, how it will come out.

With 64cm stride length matches the distance on treadmill and Charge 6 perfect now 🙂
