Hi Friends!
Last week, I was contacted by the wonderful folks at Fitbit to see if I’d be interested in reviewing their newest model, the Fitbit Force. If you’ve been reading this blog for a while now, you may recall that I used to have a Fitbit Ultra and I LOVED it. I even wrote a whole post about how much I loved it after I got it for my birthday (Should I Get A Fitbit?). Unfortunately, it went through the wash a while ago so I’ve been without one for some time.
So, of course I jumped at the chance to check out this newest version.
Like I said, I was sent the Fitbit Force, but they have several other models as well. Here are a few of them:
I’ve been wearing the Force for about a week now and so far I am LOVING it.
Here’s what I like about it:
- It’s comfortable. I was a little nervous going from a clip-on to a wrist model…but one of the downsides of the clipon is that I was always forgetting to swich it when I changed clothes. The Force is a wrist band model and it’s pretty much just like wearing a watch. It’s easy to get on and off and adjustable to fit the size of your wrist (not a fixed size like some other brands).
- The display. First of all, it tells the time, so it is, effectively, a watch. This makes it beneficial not only as a pedometer but also to tell time. You can scroll through all of the things it tracks right there on your wrist so just by pressing a button a few times I can see the time, how many steps I’ve taken, how many miles I’ve traveled, how many flights of stairs I’ve climbed, etc.
- Easy to use. It only took me about 10 minutes to set it up once I received it. You can view your stats on the computer, on the Force itself, or you can download the app for your phone.
- Wireless synching. It wirelessly syncs to your computer and smartphone using bluetooth, so you don’t have to plug it in except to charge it.
- Long battery life. I’ve been using it for 5 days and still have half battery life.
- Alarms. You can set silent alarms and it will buzz and vibrate when they go off. I have one set every hour during the workday to remind me to get up and move more throughout the day. You can set them to repeat on certain days, so I have mine set M-F but not on the weekends. Another option would be to use this as your morning alarm so you don’t bother anyone else with a loud alarm clock!
- Sleep tracker. Sometimes I forget to use this one, but I do think it’s interesting. It tracks how often you wake up during the night and how many times you’re restless. Neat to see.
- Motivation. For me, just simply wearing a pedometer motivates me to move more. This came at the perfect time since I’ve found myself sitting way more than I should lately.
Other features:
- Calorie burn tracker – I personally don’t pay attention to this feature. The only time I would really want to know how many calories I’ve burned is during a workout and I think a heart rate monitor is a more accurate way to get that information. However, I do think it’s a good reminder that our bodies do burn a crazy number of calories every day just while doing everyday things like breathing, walking, LIVING…so it’s important to fuel your body properly and not starve yourself! (That’s my inner RD coming out!)
- Food & Drink intake tracker. You can log your intake and exercise, journal how you’re feeling, track your weight, etc.
- Connect with friends. If you know other people with a Fitbit, you can become friends and encourage each other!
- Synch with other apps– You can synch your Fitbit to other apps you use like My Fitness Pal, Lose It, Spark People, Map My Run and more!
So now let’s get a visual shall we?
Here’s what it looks like on my wrist. The display only lights up when you press the button, otherwise it’s solid black:
Here’s what you see on your dashboard when you log in on the computer:
If you want to see more details about certain things, like sleep, you can find that info (yes, I know I need to get more sleep):
Some nights I sleep straight through, some nights I wake up more often:
If you are tracking your food, you can input that info via your computer or phone:
I don’t use this feature, but it looks similar to other food tracking apps:
The app on your phone is also super easy to use and shows you all the same data as the computer dashboard. I’m still using all the default exercise goals but you can customize your daily goals for steps, miles, calories, active minutes and floors climbed.
Overall, I love the Fitbit Force. I had trouble coming up with any downsides, but here are a few minor ones: :
- It’s not ugly, but it’s also not super stylish. This doesn’t matter to me, but it might bother some people. So far it only comes in black and blue.
- It’s pretty thin…but it could always be a little bit thinner.
- It’s water-resistant, so I wear it to workout but take it off before showering. It would be awesome if it were waterproof.
- There are some downsides of a wrist-based tracker vs. a clipon as far as counting steps during activities where you don’t move your arms a lot, etc…Fitbit does a good job of answering these FAQs here. Overall, I feel like the Fitbit Force is fairly accurate. I use it with the understanding that it’s not going to be 100% perfect…but it does a good job of giving me a idea of how much i’m moving throughout the day and encouraging me to move more than I do when I’m not wearing it! *Remember you can also measure your stride length and update that in the settings to make your tracker more accurate for you.
Other tidbits:
- I am right-handed, but I wear the Fitbit on my right (dominant) hand instead of my non-dominant hand like most people. Fitbit takes this into consideration and makes it very clear that if you do this, you should update your settings so it knows that.
- I love the adjustable sizing. When I’m working out, I just move it one notch looser so I can slide it up a little higher on my forearm and that way I can still wear my wrist wraps at crossfit.
- Fitbit keeps things fun by giving you badges when you hit certain milestones, allowing you to challenge your friends and sending you alerts for extra motivation!
So, now that I’m done raving about my new gadget, how would you guys like one of your own?!

Laurie says
Do you have to push a button when you wake up? Is it comfortable to sleep in?
Brittany @ Barr & Table says
My husband got a pedometer for a contest at work and I wore it one day so we could have our own little contest at home. It definitely made me move more!
cwaltz says
I have never used a pedometer before. One of my goals this year originally was to buy myself a fitbit zip. Sadly, that never happened due to too many other things coming up. I don’t have a data plan for my phone(nor do I really want one) so it’s good to know this model allows you to read and place data into an actual computer. My weight has crept up over the past year and it would be interesting to see if adding a step challenge to my other goal(Zumba twice weekly) would be helpful.
Shanna@ pineapple and coconut says
I have never used a pedometer but I have been thinking about getting a fitbit or jawbone up or something along those lines. It would be neat to track sleeping and walking for sure
Daniella says
I have had the ultra and the basic model fitbit and loved them both!
Danielle says
A fit it would be amazing
Abby says
I’ve never used a pedometor but I take public transportation and end up walking a LOT as a result so I’d love to see that validated somehow and encourage me to move just as much on weekends.
kathy says
this sounds awesome!
jessicaisbaking says
I have never used one but I think if i did, it would make me move more since I tend to be competitive with myself!
Helen says
Wow. This looks cool! I have a heart rate monitor watch but this seems like it can do more things. =)
Stephanie says
I had a fitbit but it fell off my belt and i lost it. I loved it, mine had a little flower that grew when you were more active and I had co workers asking how tall my flower was at random times during the day.
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
I have the One and have been wanting to upgrade to the band. Like you, I use it as a gauge rather than an actual science. It’s motivation to keep moving when you have a desk job!
Scott says
I normally use a Garmin when I’m out running, but it’d be nice to have something for activities other than my regular run, as well as being able to track sleep patterns. Anyone have any idea how well the sleep tracking portion handles multiple people in bed? There’s my wife, but we also have two kids (6 and 1.5), so I wonder how well it would contend with a toddler flopping around next to you (those of you with kids know what I mean).
kelsey says
yes i’ve used a pedometer- it definitely made me more mindful of staying active throughout the day!
Arlene @ Adventures in Weight Loss says
I’ve used a pedometer and currently have a Nike FuelBand, which I love … but I think the FitBit tracks more stuff.
Leila @ Leila Dishes says
I keep hearing about these and am so interested! I’ve never used a pedometer, but the fitbit sounds much better than a ped!
Caitlyn says
Been researching fitbit vs jawbone and would LOVE a fitbit!!
Lindsey says
I have never used a pedometer before but I can see from your review that this gadget might help me be more mindful of my activity levels throughout the day and adjust my eating and fitness accordingly.
Megan B says
I used a pedometer once for a class and I found out it did make me move more when I had a goal, and knew how many more steps I needed to get there…even if it was just walking around more to do small tasks whether at the house or around campus!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
A pedometer can definitely motivate you to get in those extra steps. It is a great way to truly become aware of how much you are getting up and moving around.
tam says
hi, looks good! How accurate would you say the calorie burn is?
Glenneth Reed says
yes, i love using something that tells me my daily steps.
Kerry @ The Adventures of Z & K says
I’ve tried using sleep tracking apps on my phone before and have never been happy with them. I’d love to have more insight into my habits more than just “I’m a 85 year old trapped in a 29 year old’s body and think 9:00 everyday is a perfectly acceptable bedtime.”
Lindsay says
Yes, I used a pedometer for a while but it got a bit cumbersome. I definitely felt more compelled to get up and move around when I wore it though!
Kaitlyn says
I used a pedometer at work once, just out of curiosity (I’m a teacher) – I ended up walking over 7 miles during my work hours! I’d be really curious to see how that looks day-to-day.
HollieisFueledByLOLZ says
I have been debating a fitbit for so long. I would love to eventually try one out. I had a pedometer a while back but nothing as cool as this. I really want to monitor my sleep habits because I know I wake up so regularly.
Nicole says
I’ve tried pedometers, but I never feel like they are very accurate.
Bridget Gaug says
I like had a fitbit ultra too. And I LOVED it till it suffered the same fate of death by washing machine. It totally motivated and me and keep me active. I never used it for the sleeping aspect which I wish I had. I know I need to working on sleeping better.
Jenny says
I’ve been contemplating getting a fitness tracker like this for a while. I love the idea of tracking steps & I’m very interested in tracking my sleep – I feel like I’m up 1/2 the night most days 🙂
Candace says
I have never used a pedometer but I have always wanted to try one out! I think they can be an effective way of keeping weight in check.
Linz @ Itz Linz says
No, but I really want to! I’m so curious to see if I get my 10,000 steps a day being a fourth grade teacher!
Carolynn says
I haven’t used a pedometer since my Pikachu tamagotchi pet that had a pedometer on it because you used steps to earn points to buy your pet food and presents 😛 I’d LOVE to use the fitbit, though! I’m curious as to how many steps I take a day due to the fact that I work in an environment where I stand for 9+ hours every single day.
Jana @ Happy Wife Healthy Life says
I actually wear a pedometer almost every day for work! We do the wellness program Virgin Health Miles where you sync your pedometer daily to track steps, activity and earn points for extra vacation days!
Anne @ CandyCrazedrun.wordpress.com says
I have always been so curious about the fitbit, it would be so neat to give it a try!
Madeline @ Food Fitness and Family says
I am really wanting one of these type gadgets for when I start school since I will be sitting so much more!
Jenny says
The only pedometer I’ve owned was a cheap one that didn’t work well. I’ve wanted to try a Fitbit!
Jenny Pittsburgh says
I had the Ultra but ran into the same problem…I always forgot to take it off and it ran through the wash. Whomp Whomp.
Dana @momrunshalf says
Hmm, I am intrigued by these. I do use my HRM monitor for workouts but it might be nice to see how my calorie burn works out each day at non workout times
Caroline says
I have used a pedometer on my phone before! However, I’m not sure how accurate it is. Would love to try the FitBit.
Shelly says
My ultra went through the washer and dryer on 4 separate occasions before it finally bit the dust. It was a sad day, indeed.
Kim @ Racing Bananas says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I’ve thought about it! I think it would be very motivating to really see my activity during the day and push myself to make sure I was doing as much as the previous day!
Andie says
What a helpful review! I’ve been looking for a good activity tracker and the Force may be it – thank you!
Maggie says
I have tortoises a pedometer but I would love to try one!
Sarah says
I never used a pedometer, but I did have something called a “bodybugg” which was similar to the idea of the fitbit. And YES it helped me move more- I was excited to reach certain goals of steps taken, etc. and it made me more aware of being active
Michelle says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I bet I would be encouraged to walk more if I did!
Coco (@Got2Run4Me) says
Cool to know it has an alarm — that’s what I love about my UP.
Jennifer L. says
I have not used a pedometer but I have been looking into getting one or a heart rate monitor as something to keep me motivated especially in the winter!
Heather B says
Ihave never used a pedometer ! I think it might be useful 🙂
Jess says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I definitely think it would help me move more! I’ve been in a bit of a rut lately so I think starting to wear something like this would be useful.
Brittany @ Britt's Blurbs says
I’ve never had a pedometer but I feel that something like this could really get my moving during the day since my job is so sedentary!
Autumn R says
Thanks for the review. It was great and now I’m sold that I need one!
Cori @ olivetorun says
I had a pedometer at the job I worked at in college… we did it as a whole company and gave initiatives for individuals as they walked so many steps. It was a great way to promote healthy living 🙂
Kennedy Rude says
I have wanted one for a long time!
Amanda says
I have never used a pedometer before but i’m sure it would motivate me to get up and move more.
Millicent Jones says
I never have used a pedometer but have been wanting a Fitbit for awhile now!!!
Sam @ Better With Sprinkles says
Ahhh I wish I could enter! I definitely have an activity tracker on my wish list this year 😉
Abby says
I have used a pedometer before and it did help me to remember to get up from my desk every 15 minutes or so and take a “lap”. I would LOVE to try a Fitbit and have been looking at them forever, just have not bitten the bullet to buy one!
Hannah says
My work does a Walktober event every year where we all get pedometers. I find that I start moving so much more and its great.
Laura says
Yes, the pedometer helped me walk my dogs a bit further!
Kelan says
I’ve used a pedometer to track steps and was motivate to get 10,000 a day plus whatever I got through exercise. I would love something that more accurately tracks both! And super curious about my sleep patterns.
Heatherfeather says
I’ve been reading up on these and they sound great. I’d love to try!
Heather @fitncookies says
I have used one and it definitely helps me stay more accountable! It’s like a competition with myself!
Layne says
I have the original fit bit clip on so this would be awesome to win!!
Kaila @healthyhelperblog! says
I have never consistently used a pedometer so I would LOVE to win this to try it out and see how many steps I get in a day! I’d like to think I get 10,000 but you never know! It would definitely be good to check in and gage where I am at!
Marcia says
I have tried pedometers on my phone, but not the best experiences. Great giveaway!
Lindsay K says
I haven’t used a pedometer before, but I would really like to try the fitbit! It looks awesome!
Kelly @ Kelly Runs for Food says
I would LOVE a fit bit- I’ve been eyeing them for a while now. I used a pedometer app for a while and it helped me move more for sure!
Kat says
I have a FitBit Flex and LOVE IT, but I really wanted to upgrade to the newest one–especially because of the steps and watch feature. You convinced me that I should.
Audrey says
I currently have the flex and I love it. I have thought about upgrading. Thanks for the review.
Betsy says
I used that FitBit one before and liked it but I think I would prefer a bracelet type one more!
Caylin says
I work 12+ hour shifts as a nurse and I love seeing how far I walk while running around all day at the hospital. LOVE the motivation!!
Kim says
I have been wanting a fitbit for awhile now. I have been trying to save up with how expensive they are.
Carrie Skoll says
I do use a pedometer and it does motivate me to move more. The days I don’t get in an extra walk or run are clearly below what movement I should get for the day.
mindy @ just a one girl revolution. says
I had one of the earlier FitBit models and loved it – definitely motivating!
JenB says
We are such a Fitbit family! I have the one, as does my 14-year old. My 18 year old has the Flex and I just got a Zip for hubby (he’s not converted yet). Both my parents have a One, and a couple brothers and their wives. It’s a fun family competition to see who has the most steps.
Fitbit also connects with so many other apps out there. I use MFP for food tracking, and the two sites sync together. I’ve also linked my Fitbit to many of the “reward” sites (Everymove, Earndit, Walgreen’s Rewards). I’m a huge Fitbit fan and have been wearing one for years.
Leah MacKenzie says
I try to use a pedometer everyday as it’s one of our programs at work for “healthier living” & it’s a great reminder to move more each day. I’ve heard amazing things about the FitBit, but haven’t gone out to actually buy one yet. What a great review and product!! Thanks for sharing all these great details; it definitely makes me want one even more, now!
Natalie S says
I haven’t used one before, but would love one to motivate me!
Wendy M says
I have used one and I definitely think it makes you more aware of your activity!
Amy says
I’ve never worn a pedometer but I’ve often thought about trying one.
Ritsa says
I have never used a pedometer before but have always been curious to see how much I walk throughout the day. Probably not much!
The sleep feature is what is going to sell me on this product. I am the worst sleeper and im curious to see how many times I wake up throughout the night and how much of the time I am in bed I am actually sleeping!
Kate says
Yes, I love wearing something that keeps me accountable! I used to have a BodyBugg and it really helped me increase my activity outside of my workouts!
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
I have used a pedometer on my phone! I love to use it when I am traveling.
Maureen says
I’ve never tried a pedometer and would love to try the fitbit!

I’ve only used HR monitors in the past but the Force caught my eye recently. Thanks for the detailed review!

I have never used a pedometer, but my mom has and I know it definitely helped her move more throughout the day. I would LOVE to try this out. How cool that it counts your number of floors, too! 🙂
Jessi Boehme says
This is a great review! I felt like you were honest and informative (: I’ve been looking into a variety of watches / wrist bands but this one is new to me!
Leah says
I have never used a pedometer but I think that it would definitely motivate me to be more active throughout the day!
Yoojin says
I’ve never used a pedometer before but I do have a polar heart rate watch. However, I’d love to try out the fitbit, especially for distance!
Shari johnston says
I am so happy you reviewed this!! I am thinking of getting a fitbit! I loved what you had to say. I think if we all had a more accurate calculation of our physical activity in our day we would be more aware and wiser of the choices we make. I know I am but I’d love to be more aware! Thanks!!
Corey @ learning Patience says
I use a fitbit now and love it…but I’d love to give one to my mom!
alexis says
I’ve used a pedometer before, doesn’t really change what I do too much but it is fun to keep track of things like steps
Mark says
I bought one of these for my wife for Christmas. I’ll see how she likes it compared to the clip on pedometer she has been using.
Paige Callahan says
I’ve never used a pedometer before but I really want one of these! I’ve only heard great things about fitbit
Julie @ RDelicious Kitchen says
I’ve used a pedometer before .. I like having a goal to try and get 10,000 steps a day .. unfortunately I lost the pedometer because it was one of those clip on the pants ones.. fell right off!
Kayla says
Great review, I hadn’t considered getting one of these, but now I’m interested 🙂

Darbi says
I’ve never used a pedometer bc Im always training for a race so I have an idea of how many steps. I am sidelined now so it would be interesting to see how far I walk during the day now.
Amy @ Long Drive Journey says
What a great giveaway! I used to wear a pedometer, and it was constantly falling off or not tracking steps accurately. This seems like a major step up.
Brynn says
I have never used a pedometer before, but have always been interested in using one! What a great giveaway. Thanks!!
Lianne Simeone says
I wore a pedometer for a work healthy event but it wasn’t accurate and I didn’t like having it pinned on to my clothes.
Kristi says
I used to have a pedometer but this seems so much better! I did like having one, it was fun to keep track of my movement.
Gina says
This looks awesome! I especially love the sleep tracking.
Michelle says
Thank you for sharing this information with us. I have been wanting to buy one for myself but now I don’t know why I have not yet!
Christina Caputo says
I have been debating whether or not I should buy a Fit Bit and your review has me sold! I love the daily breakdowns, such great information to know. I am also really interested in the sleep cycles because I feel like I wake up a lot at night and it would be so cool to see and track that!
Angie Jerde says
I have used a pedometer in the past and believe it’s great motivation. I loved wearing it at work especially because it pushed me to get up and move, even though I am on my feet all day.
This is a wonderful giveaway!
Cori says
Yes! But they were always annoying to clip on, same as you!
Janie says
What a great technology to have! So functional. I am currently using my phone as my pedometer. It helps give me the motivation I need to walk and not stay sitting down all the time. It also serves as an accountability system.
Janet T says
I have not used a pedometer. I would love to try this Fitbit. I like that it is able to do so many things to keep me motivated to move throughout the day and to eat healthy meals and snacks.
Danielle says
I just started using a free pedometer app on my phone and love trying to beat my step count from the previous day. I’ve wanted a Fitbit for months, though!
Laura K says
I used a pedometer long ago; I do think that it motivated me to walk a little further than i would have without it; I would so love to have a fitbit; I can’t believe it actually monitors sleep patterns; I think this is what I like most about it as I would love to know more about my quality of sleep; I have a feeling it is poor.
Heather Turcotte says
I need one of these! I had a Nike fuel band when they first came out but had many issues with the accuracy and limitations of it so I returned it. I have since been hoping to find a wrist band. It sounds like the fitbit force has solved the limitations problem AND the accuracy issues I had with other bands and is exactly what I need!
Taylor says
Is this something you could use for runs? Looks like something I would love!
Chelsea says
I would love to have one!! It sounds awesome!
Anne says
I’ve been wanting to try Fitbit for a while now! Most interested in how many steps I take during the work week and sleep patterns!
Cordelia says
I haven’t but my sister has when she’s walking. I think it helps more as a motivator than anything else!
Lauren N says
I’ve used the basic fitbit before and I enjoyed the pedometer aspect. I would like to try all the features of the FitBit Force. Seems awesome!
Jennifer Dunham says
I have been looking at these forever and would LOVE to have one. I just haven’t taken the plunge. I would love to track sleep along with all the other things!
Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie says
What an awesome product! I currently dont use a pedometer but I would love one!
Karen H says
I received a free pedometer years ago at a local event, but never used it. I’ve been eyeing FitBit for about a year. Right now I log my workouts on Map My Run, but I Ithink the fitbit features would motivate me more.
Laura Anderson says
I’ve been eyeing them forever but haven’t taken the plunge! I’m going to be just getting back to my workout routine in a few weeks after taking time off to recover from major surgery, and the badges and tracking would be a great motivator to keep me going.
Alison McDonald says
I use one I got through work!
Leah A. says
I’ve never used a pedometer before, but I’m in the field of medical research and get so excited by data like this. Would LOVE fitbit.. great giveaway!
Malisa says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I do use a heart rate monitor while working out. I’ve been wanting something like this for a while, but haven’t pulled the trigger!
Anel Winney says
I used a pedometer a long time ago; a really old school pedometer that you hooked on to your belt buckle. I hardly saw it on me so I would forget that I had it on. At the end of the day, when I did see how many steps I took, I would make a goal to walk more the next day; it was rather motivating. I just love the sleep monitoring aspect of that Fitbit; that’s amazing!
Lauren says
I never used anything like this, but I would love to be able to see everything especially my sleep schedule. I always feel like I get terrible sleep so it would be interesting to see how much I truly get on the day to day.
Erica Sch says
I have been very interested in trying out the Fitbit products to track my activity, especially with working in a hospital where I walk a ton! Thanks for the opportunity and I love your review of the product!
Erin Grayson says
I have used a pedometer before and really love keeping track of my movements, but I never liked how bulky it looked with clothing covering it. So I would love a FitBit to wear on my wrist and keep track of my fitness that way!
Amber at Love, Laugh, Live Well says
I’d love one of these, especially for getting back into shape post-partum! I love that it tracks so many different elements of wellness and the badges too.
Kristen M says
Many years ago I used a pedometer that was attached on the pants/belt buckle. I’ve moved on to more running than walking but think this would be awesome for all it’s various tracking abilities and to encourage more movement.
Sheena says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I’d be interested to see what it has to say!
Jillian says
I’ve never used one of these, but I would absolutely love it!
Megan T says
I have the Fitbit Flex & love it! It really helps me stay active & goal focused. I’ve been eyeing the Force, so I’d love to win!
steff says
I used to have a clip on fitbit but it broke. 🙁 This one would be both a replacement AND an upgrade!
Katie says
I did used to wear a pedometer throughout the day before it broke. It really did help me to move more!
Caroline @ After Dinner Dance says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I wore an accelerometer for a pilot test of a physical activity study at my graduate school. It definitely makes you more aware of your activity and you try to stand up and move more!
debbie says
A pedomoter would hold me accountable & I need to be held accoutable!
Jordan k says
Wow, the Fitbit Force looks so cool!
Angie says
This looks REALLY cool!!! I especially like the sleep information….!!
Sarah @PickyRunner says
I’ve never had one of these but I have to admit I’ve been curious about them for awhile!
Courtney @ Don't Blink. Just Run. says
I have a Fitbit Zip right now and it definitely makes me want to get more steps in. I’d love to try a Force. I had an Up band before and ended up having to replace it and ultimately return the replacement all within 2 months, so I’ve been hesitant to get another wrist monitor. The review sounds great!
Courtney W says
I’ve been coveting a FitBit for a while now. Fingers crossed I’ll get lucky & win your giveaway 🙂
Kathryn says
I’ve been eyeing these lately and really want one!
Emily @ The Apron Blog says
I used to use a pedometer, it was a cheap clip on from walmart. However mine fell in the sink at work and never recovered. I would love a chance to try this one out!! Looks really cool!
Kristin says
This looks so awesome! I have been looking for a great device like this & I love the Polar FT4 watch, but this does so much more and has more features. Thanks for showing how it works and giving your feedback.
Caitlin RD says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but would welcome the chance to try!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Amanda @ The Engineering Foodie says
I’ve never worn a pedometer but I would think it would make me more mindful of my exercise and eating throughout the day! It would also be cool to try out the silent alarms!!
Stacie M. says
I have used them in the past. I have a very active job, and I was actually underestimating how much walking I did in a typical day!
Kara says
I have only used a pedometer a few times and every time I use one I love it! I have struggled to find a really good pedometer and I’m hoping that the FitBit Force is that pedometer for me!
Dayna Freeman says
I have always wanted to try a pedometer… I walk 1.5 miles to work, 5 days a week (and sometimes I make the return walk, too… although usually I carpool home!) and I have always wondered how exactly it is affecting my body. The sleep feature is really interesting, too… how does it know when you are awake vs. asleep? And are the wireless signals always on, or just when you are syncing with the computer? Regardless, I’ve been hearing a LOT about FitBit, and I really want to try it out.

Ashley says
I have used a pedometer before and loved it! Definitely helped me move more. I would love a fitbit to better track my daily activities!
Kate says
I’ve been thinking a lot about getting one of these – thanks for the awesome review. I’d love to win one!
Kristen says
I have used a pedometor for a work contest. I use my garmin when running. The fitbit force seems awesome.
Lindsay says
I am so impressed with your review and this product! I had no idea what all it had to offer. I do have a pedometer that clips on my waist band, but mainly use my heart rate monitor as a fitness tool. Winning a FitBit would be amazing!
Lindsay M says
I have used the BodyMedia armband to track my activity and sleep over the last year. It’s not pretty, the arm strap has gotten smelly and it’s time for an upgrade!
Dena @ 40 Fit in the Mitt says
have the fitbit zip would love to upgrade
Danette says
My husband and I got cheapo pedometers in a goodie bag at a health event and we would compete to see who was more active during the day. 🙂 It’s definitely a great motivator to get you moving! I would LOVE a fitbit!
Christine says
I wear my pedometer everyday to work! I’m on my feet all day at work but I was curious to see how much I actually do!
Ashlee @ A Step in the Right Direction says
I have the FitBit One and I love it! It really makes me push myself to make my goals.
Lisa says
I used to wear a pedometer and need to get back into doing that. It did help me feel motivated to get at least 10,000 steps a day.
Aaron Mabry says
Was thinking of asking for one of these for Christmas!
Jenn says
I’ve never tried it before but my friend loves it and it looks neat!
Ashlee@HisnHers says
Ahh Ive wanted one of these for forever now!!
Gaby says
I tried downloading the app on my phone once but it didn’t seem to read my walking very well. What was really cool though is my friend has a nike fuel band and we traveled to greece this summer together and it was so cool to see how much walking we were doing every day!
Tamara says
I’ve used pedometers before and they always help remind me to move a little more. I have a M-F 8-5 desk job and it did make a huge difference, but I’d end up giving up when I lost it or forget to attach it (since they’ve only ever been clip-ons). I’ve been looking at the fitbits for a while and they seem wonderful!
Rebecca @ Runner with an Appetite says
I’ve gotten small, cheap pedometers at health events before, but they were never accurate. I’d love a device that’s more accurate as I truly think that’d help push me!
ErikaMC says
I use to wear a pedometer until I lost it 🙁 Sure wish I could find it – might be time to just buy a new one. I think I took more steps when I wore it – trying to beat the day before!
Alicia says
I did wear a pedometer once for about a month. It absolutely helped me realize how much I sit at work and forced me to be more active at night. I didn’t like the clicking noise it made though so I stopped wearing it.
Theresa says
I have always been interested in the Fitbits versus the Nike and Jawbone products. This one seems the best-reviewed but I’d love to try it for myself!
Lindsay says
never have used a daily pedometer- have used map my run/walk to track that around campus and activity. I wear my watch every day so the fact that my watch could now serve greater purposes that just the time/stopwatch would be AWESOME!
Katelyn says
I’ve been eyeing the fitbit and some of its competitors so your recap is SUPER helpful!
Ashley @ Broc Blog says
I keep meaning to get one because I feel like Im too sedentary at work but I dont have one yet.
Christina says
I have a pedometer, but sometimes it is awkward or uncomfortable to wear. It definitely motivates me to reach a certain number of steps or a certain number of miles. You sometimes need to make an extra effort to reach 10,000 steps when you have a desk job. The fitbit seems awesome!
Jackie says
I’ve always wanted to try this! I’d lie to win!!
Christoph says
Always thought about getting one, but so far I am using a heart rate monitor when working out. The sleep monitoring would be really something I’d like to try out.
Katie P. says
Never used one but would welcome the opportunity!
Cole says
I have been looking at these a lot lately! I’ve worn a pedometer but nothing this fancy!!
Erin P. says
Wow! that sleep tracker would be awesome!
Stephanie K says
I have used a pedometer before but it was a pretty cheap model so it worked but not that great. I definitely made myself move more at work so at least it’s motivation!
Stacie says
I have one on my phone but as my phone is off during the work day I never get an accurate count of what my activity level is. I think it would be so motivating to have a constant reminder to move!
Jennie G says
I love seeing what you think of this new tool.
Mandie Marie @ The Fruitful Turtle says
I have used a pedometer before and was very surprised how lazy I was!!! Also, I’m curious how many times I wake up during the night because I always wake up in the strangest positions 🙂
Catherine P says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but lately I have been seriously contemplating getting one to encourage me to move more! I’ve also been considering devices like the Fitbit Force, but have been intimidated by the price – winning one would be perfect!
Cristina says
I use a heart rate monitor during exercise, but i’d be super interested to track my everyday activity and sleep habits!
Colleen says
I had a pedometer but it was so noisy when I walked that I stopped using. I definitely walked more when I had the pedometer because I was trying to get to 10,000 steps a day.
Rebekah B says
Never wore a pedometer but I love the idea of having a fitbit
Denyne says
Never used one, but always use my heart rate monitor.
Anu says
I have used a pedometer but would always forget to wear it!
Kim says
I have to wear a pedometer for work if I want to earn health fund money from my company (free $$$). It does encourage me to take additional steps if I wasn’t able to do 30 or 45 active minutes (running) that day and I’m only steps away from one of the step milestones that you can earn for the day. However, it was a pain to wear so as soon as I earned the max amount of money, I stopped wearing it. I have been looking into the fitbit since it syncs to the Virgin Healthmiles website and I can just wear it on my wrist instead of on my hip/pocket–especially when I wear a dress I can still earn steps.
Caroline says
I’ve never used a pedometer but think it would be really interesting!
Kaylin Gilkey says
I have used a pedometer and I really like them!
Cindy says
I’ve never tried a fitness tracker but have always wanted to! This FitBit looks like the perfect one to give it a go!
Kelly D. says
I used a pedometer once (briefly – as I was working at a ski resort and pedometers don’t mix well with skiing), so I’d love to try out another one!
Alexandra says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I’d be super interested to find out how much I actually move in a day! I work at a desk all day so sometimes I feel like I don’t move near enough!
Larissa says
I think this would be way better than wearing a garmin all the time.
Denise S. says
I have used a pedometer before but am currently using the BodyMedia Fit Link armband. I’d love to compare it to the Fitbit Force!
Megan says
I’ve always wanted to try out a pedometer, but never actually done it. I actually put a FitBit on my Christmas list this year for that exact reason!
Melissa says
I used a pedometer for a school project wayyyy back in middle school. But it didn’t help me much because I wasn’t very committed to the project. I’d love to use something like this now, though, since I’m much more in tune with my fitness and nutrition needs.
sarah k @ the pajama chef says
i’ve never worn a pedometer but my mom used to have a fit bit and was in love with it. until it fell off her clothing recently and she lost it. 🙁 i’d love to try this out!
Jessica Styers says
Wow this looks awesome! i would love to try this out!!
Kayla says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I’ve been considering buying a Fitbit for a long time. This would be awesome!
Christine @ Love, Life, Surf says
I haven’t used a pedometer before and I’ve been so curious about my steps and activity level. I would love to learn more about my sleep too!
Ellie says
My mom is all about her pedometer. She swears by it and I have always been meaning to look into buying one!
Victoria Braselton says
I would love one of these!
elizabeth says
I’ve used a Garmin a few times and it was interesting, but I don’t care much about improving my speed. I like to keep moving and stay healthy and injury free.
Kristin says
I have been wanting a FitBit, but cannot quite swing the price especially with Christmas around the corner. I would love to have the force to track my activity. Thanks for the chance to win!
Amelia @i_heart_kale says
I have never used a pedometer before but have always wanted a fitbit. I love fitness gadgets of all kinds! Right now I have a heart rate monitor that I wear when I workout. I really like to know what my HR is as I am working out, because I tend to push harder in a shorter amount of time vs when I don’t wear it. Cuts down on workout times and still blasts my HR sky high! WIn. 🙂
[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ‘0 which is not a hashcash value.
Kristen says
I used a cheap pedometer for awhile and it wasn’t very accurate, but it did encourage me to be more active! I found myself getting off the bus early and running in place while brushing my teeth. I would love something more accurate and with more features, like a FitBit!
Kim says
I love the thought of the Fitbit! This one looks a little larger than the Flex which looks impressive too. I guess I need to research it a bit more to see the differences.
Karen says
Never used one, my classes at school have used them and it did motivate them to walk more during recess, they were very competitive and didn’t want to be beat
Janette H. says
I used a pedometer briefly and it helped me move more. But it was a clip-on and like you said, I was always forgetting to transfer it! I wanted to get this for my husband for Christmas, but it is on backorder!
Stefanie E. says
I’ve used a pedometer before and it definitely keeps me moving. I really like that this tracks your sleeping.
Melissa Burton says
I keep toying with getting a wearable tracker but I’m afraid I’ll get addicted to the numbers rather than enjoying being active. On the other hand, I’d love to know what my true kcal burn is during some specific exercises and my sleep patterns.
Jan @ Sprouts n Squats says
I thought of getting a fitbit before I gave up calorie counting but for me having too much data would probably make me overthink things too much.
Kelly V. says
I used a pedometer one semester in college for a health class. Can’t remember the results but I’m fairly certain I walked miles daily to/from class/home, just wish I had eaten healthier back then!
Ben J says
I have used a pedometer, and it did inspire me to walk more. I’d love to win a Fitbit Force to try that out. Sounds great.
Shelby says
It would be the best Christmas present ever to receive the Fitbit! Working a 9-5 desk job leaves me anxious to get up and move around, so I think the Fitbit would encourage me to be more active during the work day.
Jana Gach says
Yes, I made it a challenge each day to try to beat the day before. Definitely a good motivator!
Emily says
I’ve never used a pedometer – I live in NYC so I know that I walk a lot – but I’d love the challenge of competing with myself to continue to be even more active!
Kim says
This is so cool! I would love to see how much I actually sleep at night since I recently had a baby. The pedometer would also be good for motivation to move around and work off the baby weight!
Lauren says
I’ve used a pedometer a few times and I am always trying to one up myself! “I’ll walk until I reach 10,000 steps”. “I’ll walk until I hit my lucky number” “Oh I can keep walking…why not?” Its a great tool!
Jamie says
I’ve used a pedometer before, but it wasn’t that accurate. Would love a new digit one!
Beth says
I have friends that use Fitbits and I’ve always been intrigued! I would love the opportunity to try it out.
kelly says
My old fitbit one went thru the wash for the third time and didn’t make it 🙁 I encouraged my sister to get one and she has loved it and has lost 30 lbs so far! Id love to try the force.
Sandy S. says
I like that it is a watch too and that it is adjustable. I have a small wrist (I feel like a kid) and some watches look too big on my arm so this would serve two functions. Anything to keep me motivated!!
Sandy S. says
I tried to use a pedometer but I could hear the clicking when I walked and it bothered me. I am a substitute teacher and I walk a lot and I thought it was distracting.
Jackie says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I know it would help me! I wonder how this one differs from the flex?
Amy says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but my dad does on a regular basis, and it’s fun to hear him talk about meeting his step goals. 🙂
shari says
I’ve been thinking about getting one but wasn’t sure. But you make it sound good. Thank you for all you do! Have a blessed day!
REW says
Thanks for the review!
Danielle @ Dani Cakes says
I’ve been so curious about these after seeing some of my students with them. I’m not one for gadgets but it seems like a lot of fun!

I would love to win a FitBit!

I kind of want to try one *just* for the sleep tracking – is that weird?

Eric says
I’ve never used a pedometer but would love to add one to my fitness repertoire!
Kelly Paquet says
I use the flex now, but would love the watch /display option!
Janet Gwaltney says
I have wanted one of these, to assist with my healthy journey. Have not gotten one, but would love to win. I find when I wear a pedometer, any movement gets counted, so count isn’t accurate.
Kishna says
I’ve used a pedometer in the past.would love to have a fitbit.
Lauren says
I currently use a fitbit zip and looooove it! I’ve been wanting to upgrade to one with more features, so winning a force would make my day!!
Alicia Spalding says
I’ve never used a pedometer before but I definitely see how this could be motivating! I would love to see how a fitbit would help me reach my fitness goals!
Kristen says
I’ve used pedometers on my phone but they’re never accurate since I don’t always carry my phone around. I’ve wanted a fitbit for a long time but I haven’t bought one yet. Since I usually use a treadmill instead of walking outside, I don’t know, does it track well on a treadmill?
Cassie @ Rural Running Redhead says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I’d like to know how much I walk each day just around my classroom!
Ashley says
I would love the pedometer feature and the sleep feature…my sleep patterns are crazy!
Brittani says
Have never used a pedometer but have always wanted one of these!

Anna says
I’d love to have a fitbit. It would be great motivation to be more active throughout the day.
Christine says
I have used a pedometer and it just makes you want to see how many steps you can take in a day. I ended up walking around my house just for fun.
Erika says
Ohh I would love to try! Been so fascinated, working for a sleep medicine association, as to the sleep tracking.
Aimee M says
I used an old 90s era pedometer, but they are so much better now it makes me want one!
Esther says
I have used a pedometer in the past, but it didn’t seem very accurate for me, and I would forget it often. It would be nice to have something that is always on my wrist to track my movement. I also struggle with sleeping so this would help me track my sleep to see what I can to to improve it!!
Karey @ Nutty About Health says
Years ago I used to have a GoWear Fit armband, which had a pedometer built in. It was pretty neat & motivating to see how much I moved. It definitely helped!
Ellyn says
I have never used a pedometer…I sure would like to try one though!
Audrey F says
I’ve used the Fitbit One in the past and loved it!
Alex V says
That looks like one cool little gadget. I’ve always wanted to wear a pedometer but never really have besides those super cheap ones that don’t really work for all of 10 minutes.
Marin says
I used to use a pedometer at the office–I don’t have a problem getting activity in after work (CrossFit!), but it’s great to make sure I’m moving around enough when I’m at the office too.
Hayley says
I never have! But I would love to try!
Jasmin q. says
A fit it would be amazing
roxy meto says
I would love the pedometer feature and the sleep feature…

Alexis T says
Looks super cool! I’ve been thinking about getting a pedometer, so I might have to check out the Fitbit.
Leeann says
I so need this type of motivation!
Heather Lindsay says
I used a pedometer years ago, but that was before I got serious about a healthy lifestyle. I’d love to see what kind of results I could get by using one!
Ann P-L says
I’ve always wanted a pedometer, but have never gotten one. This is WAY better!
Brittany @ read, run, repeat says
I absolutely LOVE my fitbit flex, and I’m dying to try out the force!
Rachel H says
I used a pedometer a long time ago (like 14 years old) because my school was handing them out. I’ve not used one since, but it is a great way to increase motivation!
marcy says
i have only used a pedometer to see how many steps i would bartend at night. now that i am not bartening anymore, i don’t have that motivation. i would love to try this!
lanna says
I’ve not used one, I want one to motivate myself to move more during the work day.
Dena @40 fit in the Mitt says
I love my fitbit Zip, but would love to upgrade! Keeps me mindful of activities.

I used to use a fitness tracker but not a pedometer, unfortunately I accidentally left it on when I went surfing and it is no longer with us ):

Jaren @ Kiwi Fit Blog says
Never used a pedometer before manly because I can never decide on one.
Marne says
I totally agree that a pedometer is motivating! I can only imagine what a Fit Bit would do!
Ashley @ Running Bun says
I used a pedometer for a bit when I lived in NYC. I loved it because I always wanted to get to a higher number so I walked even more!
kris b says
Been years since I used pedometer but it did make me move more.
Lauren @ mostly i run says
I’ve been stalking activity monitors trying to decide which one to buy! Thanks for a great review 🙂

Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I do have a GPS watch to track my running mileage.

Who couldn’t use a little positive reinforcement–even if it isn’t coming from an actual person?? The Fitbit ‘fits’ the bill!
Kris says
Been looking for something to use when I’m not running (love my Garmin) to track my fitness and movement and this might be it. Thanks for the review!
Heidi says
I used to have a fitness tracker until it spent the night at the bottom of a lake (oops) but I loved it and would loveto try another!
Brittany Kimmet says
I used to use a pedometer about a year ago and it was nice to see how much i was up/actually moving. I’d love to get back in to the habit of wearing one again!

I have the original Fitbit, but I don’t use it because I forget it. I must have this one, though!

I had a pedometer for awhile a long time ago, it kept frustrating me because it was very inaccurate at keeping up with my steps. Would love to give the force a try!
Kathy v says
Nope I have never used one but would like to
Ananda says
We were given pedometers from work one year as part of the wellness initiative for the year. It definitely helped me get more steps in until the pedometer died!
Kristen Cincotta says
I’m looking at some completely new fitness challenges in 2014 and would LOVE to try one of these to help me stay on track! It looks fantastic!
Meghan says
I have tried to use pedometer apps but they have interfered with my phone battery life. I would love to try Fitbit!
Stephanie Meehan says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I do think it would motivate me to be more active during the day!
surbhi says
I used a pedometer once, but it wasn’t very accurate. I have been looking for a more accurate way to track my activity and the fitbit seems perfect! I like that it also keeps track of sleep, food/water, and activity. Thanks for the review – even if I don’t win the giveaway, your review has made me want to purchase one.
emily f says
I’ve never used a pedometer but I’d really like to try this!
Nancy says
I’ve used poor quality pedometers and quit using them out of frustration. The Fitbit Force sounds great!
Sharon Rooney says
Yes, I have tried a pedometer, I was surprised to actually see how far I walked in a day.
Kimberly says
I’d like to give this a try. Anything to keep me motivated, and I do love gadgets.
Erin says
I haven’t used a pedometer I quite some time and when I did it was an old school one that always ticked with each step. That’s how long it’s been!!! I’m so glad you got a chance to review this product because my boyfriend wanted to get it for me for Christmas but I wasn’t sure I would like it so your post was very helpful! I would really like to know how much sleep I’m getting a night and how many steps I take during the day. I’d love to win this!!
Hannah Frey says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I really want to try this!
Clarinda @ Enjoying the Course says
I have used a pedometer before, but it was many MANY years ago. I didn’t use it all day, though – only when I went for a run or a walk.
Katie @ Daily Cup of Kate says
I wish I would have put this on my Xmas wish list—I guess I will just have to get one as a gift to myself 🙂
Ben says
Looking forward to a healthy new year!
Casey says
I’ve only ever used a free one but a fitbit is on my xmas list !
Rory dela Paz says
I’d be interested how much better this is than other similar devices out there. I still have a Tech4o pedometer watch sitting around.
Stephanie H says
I used a pedometer for a while and it really helped me realize that I don’t take as many steps as I should. I would love to have the Fitbit Flex to help with this!
Stephanie H says
I follow @fitbit on Twitter
Missy says
I have used a pedometer at work before and I definitely think it motivates me to move more since I don’t want my numbers to be disappointing!
Jasmin q. says
I like to win this !!!
roxy meto says
I’ve only ever used a free one but a fitbit is on my xmas list !
Anna says
I’ve never used a pedometer, but I got one for my father for his birthday to encourage him to move more. It seems to be working!
Divya Budhraja says
Yes! I have! I used to have the Fitbit One, but unfortunately lost it when I was chasing one of my students around school. (Yes, that would have been interesting to find out how many steps that adventure was!)
I’d love to try this out!
Veronica says
I often use a pedometer but find they are not very accurate- maybe I just need a better one! It definitely keeps me motivated and a great re under to get moving. A Fitbit would be a huge motivator and I would love to see how it helps with sleep!
Michelle says
I have used a pedometer in the past, and it made me move a lot more! I noticed myself taking extra trips when I did the laundry, etc. just to get more steps in.
Amber Aksterowicz says
I’ve been considering getting one of these for a while. Thanks for the review!
jefferson @PrimalWeightLoss says
I have had my eyes on one of these fitness trackers for a few weeks now and have been seriously considering this new fitbit band model. Seriously great review, it makes me want to go out and get one today.
Whitney W says
I have never used a pedometer so this would be neat!
Steven B says
I’ve never used a wearable fitness tracker before. The Force seems to be a good all-around product; I definitely like the idea of having the watch built-in and being able to set alarms.
Casey Dawson says
Interesting review and I love that you are enjoying it. I tried the Nike Fuelband but just wasn’t impressed that it didn’t have a food tracking feature. I love that the Force does!
julia g says
i’ve used a pedometer way back in middle school, so not for a very long time! I remember it was very fun though to track all of my steps
Amber says
No but I need to. I know I’m not as active as I should be and this would be a great way to see where I’m at and encourage me to move more!
Anne says
I love numbers and trackers. Would love the additional functions this one has!!
Katie says
Hi! I have never used a pedometer before, but my work was raffling a bunch off in the past, and our employees who started using them absolutely loved them! I wouldn’t mind any of the styles; I think just having one would help me to move more, especially during the cold winter months!
Megan A @ Life on Planet Marsz says
The sleep tracking pattern would be very interesting for me, as I know I don’t get a lot of sleep, but I wonder if it’s of any quality!
Lisa says
Pretty cool that something so small can give you such an awesome amount of data!
Carolynn says
This came at a perfect time! Was looking at buying an activity tracker for myself as a selfish Christmas present 🙂 Fingers crossed that I win and can save the money for more pertinent things like bills 😛
Merry Christmas! Thanks for the giveaway!!
Jenn says
This looks like it’s right up my alley 🙂 Great giveaway!
Lani (@armytbonegirl) says
I have used a pedometer in the past, but it doesn’t really help me walk more. I’ve been wanting to get a fitbit to track my sleep.
