Wearable Fitness Trackers- pros and cons
Wearables are getting smarter… but don’t let the data replace wisdom ⌚️🧠
Fitness trackers have evolved way past step counts—and that’s not hype. Wearable technology was ranked the #1 fitness trend for 2024 by ACSM, and the newest devices can track things like HRV (stress/recovery), SpO₂, and in some cases even ECG.
I love good data—when it helps you make better decisions.
But I’ve also watched people become prisoners of their dashboards… and miss the basics that actually move the needle: real food, sleep, hydration, strength training, sunlight, stress management.
Bedrock reminder:
Trackers are tools. Not truth.
They should inform your choices, not override your body.
Here’s how we use wearables the Bedrock way
✅ Patterns over perfection (trends matter more than one “bad” night)
✅ Recovery over grind (HRV + sleep + soreness guide intensity)
✅ Clues, not diagnoses (ECG/rhythm features can flag issues, but they’re not a substitute for a clinician)
Why this matters inside Bedrock (and why we partner with Garmin + Hume)
We don’t just “collect data.” We translate it into a plan.
That’s why we partner with Garmin (including devices with FDA-cleared ECG capability)
…and Hume (Body Pod + Band) for body composition + metabolic insight—so our clients can access wearables at a discount and actually use the information with guidance.
Your wearable can show what’s happening.
Your Bedrock plan helps explain why—and what to do next.
Quick self-check
If your tracker is increasing anxiety, obsession, or guilt… it’s time to reset the relationship.
