I have a fitbit one for a week now and I have a question about the active minutes. I had a very busy day yesterday (18.000 steps) and 114 active minutes. Just now i synced and i had 39 active minutes already. When i looked at the specifics, it was just 10 minutes.. so that doesn't really add up.. is my fitbit giving me a break for today?

I still wear my HRM when I do Exercise. I just find it more accurate.  I use a Charge HR and a Surge.

Hey there @Wind_Danzer @WendyB! I hope you're doing great! 

Now that you can have several trackers paired tor your account, as @WendyB mentioned you can have both you can use your one on your daily basis and you can have another tracker with heart rate monitor just when you you're going to track your heart rate.

 

Hope it helps!
