Needs a way to lower the heart rate level for active minutes

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

So I have read one or two other topics similar to this. My fitbit does not log all of the active minutes because my heart rate is so low. I workout and do cardio everyday minus 2-3 days a month. Even after warming up on elliptical for 10 minutes and during my 30-60 minute weight lifting my fitbit will only log about 5 minutes of the 135bpm level of activity. High intensity every minute, and the only times I am able to  get it over that point is on my city and trail runs. 

Is there a way to lower the bpm requirement? Or do you think there will ever be a way in the future

Hello @Kali27420 

I hope I understand your question correctly. I believe you want the ability to adjust your heart rate zones. Open the Fitbit App then scroll down to your heart rate tile and tap it. (If you don’t have the heart rate tile then tap edit on the upper right corner of the screen then scroll down, find the heart rate tile and tap add. Scroll to the top and tap done) Once you tap the heart rate tile tap the gear icon in the upper right corner of your screen. Here you can adjust your heart rate zones. Just tap done in the upper left corner to exit. Sync your Fitbit Tracker if you made any changes. 
😃 I hope that provides you with a solution and indeed answered your question. Please let me know
