Add Hot Yoga (power, sculpt, bikram, Pure Barre)

May hot yoga (power, sculp, bikram) be added within active minutes please!? Currently there is only hatha yoga. Right now I'm using the work around of adding it to MyFitnessPal to add those active minutes (calories burned) to sync with my fitbit. I'd prefer all activity be within my FitBit 🙂 Thank you in advance!

Please add barre as an exercise choice to the blaze. I don't like having to use "workout" for my Barre Code class.

At some point will fitbit add Bikram Yoga to the exercise list? It is an incredibly intense workout in 105 degree heat with 40 percent humidity. This helps facilitate, deeper stretches. Ther are numerous back ends ,floor work, alignment poses and balancing postures The class is 90 minutes and relentless and gets the heart rate way up. I'm sure it burns more calories the. The 298 that is listed.

I agree with your ideas my friend, I really like the second one Smiley Wink! Having the ability to add different workouts with a list added instead of typing it and see what the options are. I think this would be easier for all of us! Thank you for posting this idea on the Feature Request Board.

I agree with you! I've been doing Bar Method since October 2014. I realize I'm not getting a lot of steps but it's a great workout and I'd love to "get credit" for it! 🙂

I couldn't agree more! I just tweeted about this and they directed me to this forum...this is just people requesting that they want this as and added activity this isn't a fix.

I would also like hot yoga added as an option. Why is it taking so long to add it?

Yes please! I am a member of a studio that almost exclusively does hot yoga. It would be so nice if I could have an accurate count!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one bothered by the fact that the exercise log doesn't recognize different types of yoga! I love the more intense types, and I definitely burn more than 132 calories per hour doing so. It feels rather unfair to put in so much work yet not be able to see it reflected on the app like the more "mobile" types of exercise are. Please add more kinds of yoga!

Custom activities that allow you to use GPS would be nice.  I have no delusions that many here are hard enduro or motocross riders, but an ability to simply combine a generic workout with GPS, speed, and pace, that disables the stairs feature would work for many activities.

 

Or better yet, just a custome activity with options.

I couldn't agree more! Some of the options on the Fitbit Blaze for exercise shortcuts are just silly- they are repetitive. At the begginning of this year, there were over 370 Pure Barre studios in the US! Thats just Pure Barre- not any of their many competitors! You would think that fact alone would be enough to add the exercise shortcut. 

 

Barre is a booming, effective and very popular exercise- ADD IT TO THE EXERCISE SHORTCUTS ALREADY 🙂

I'm surprised hot yoga still isn't an option. It's popular where I live and I hope it's added soon.

Ditto! This would be a great feature.

The lack of bikram/hot yoga entry options is literally the reason I will not buy this product. It's a deal breaker. PLEASE make this happen!!! People have been asking for years 🙂

Agreed please add hot yoga tracker! Hot yoga has been very popular for years and burns a lot more calories than what the tracker calculates.

Hi i would love to see more options to log excercise. Eg. Excercise bike, situps and core work outs. Even horse riding!
