Fitness or Activity watch

HI,

Like a lot of people working from home I do my best to move around, take breaks but can easily slip into bad habits.

Is there a good fitness watch that will tell me I have been sitting down too long and I need to get up and move etc?

I already have a Garmin 245 but that is more for tracking distances and times.

Thanks

The Fitbit has a reminder that you can set. Mine vibrates on my wrist at 10 minutes to the hour if I haven't taken 250 steps in that hour

You can set what hours you want the reminder to activate

Thanks. What's the name of that feature or watch? Thanks again

Tim,

Mine is the fitbit Inspire HR watch, and it includes the fitness/activity reminder. There are newer fitbit watches available, which should have similar functionality.

The Garmin can do all that as well:

Most of the main brands have some version of this. I've seen it in my Garmin, apple watch and also on Fitbits

Personally I'm a fan of Garmin, as I find their activity and sport tracking to be very good.
