Confused as to why Pilates doesn’t count towards daily active minutes. I do reformer Pilates 3-4 times a week and it’s an excellent cardio/ body strength workout with some resistance. It’s strange that I can log 55 minutes of yoga and get 55 active minutes, which for me is mostly gentle stretching, but a full body Pilates workout doesn’t count for anything.

 

Fitbit - please reconsider!

Hello @lklasson and welcome to the Community.  You don't say what model Fitbit you use.  You also say you "log" yoga, but that can mean different things to different users.  All current (and very recent) Fitbits award active zone minutes, not active minutes.  But if your Fitbit has a heart rate monitor, both active minutes and active zone minutes are heart rate based.

 

What model do you use and how do you log your yoga?
