FitBit Inspire HR Logging Weightlifting as Steps

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

How do I correct this? I stood in place for 30 minutes while lifting my weights, and my Fitbit logged steps as if I'd been jogging despite me logging it as Weights.

Hi, @AtomicBlonde! Unfortunately, there are some activities (knitting, riding a bike on a bumpy road, cooking, etc.) that Fitbit is just really not that great at understanding are not step-based. Apparently your weight lifting is one of them. I guess your only possible solution that I can think of is to tuck your tracker somewhere else, like wrap it around your ankle where you'll still get the heart rate monitoring for the duration of the activity.
