Motivate Your Monday: Purchasing a fitness tracker

MISSOULA, Mont. — This week if you are looking for some motivation to up your fitness game, this may be the perfect time to consider purchasing a fitness tracker. If you have not tried a fitness tracker it may be just what you need to get going.

I personally love them and have tried a variety of styles that have all been great depending on the fitness you are trying to track. They’re beneficial because it helps give you a good idea as to just how much you are moving.

Once you determine some of your personal fitness goals, it’s a great way to hold you accountable because there are settings to help meet your goals. Some trackers even allow for some friendly competition with your family and friends which makes it fun. This can be a great way to get motivated.
