In the name of good health, you deserve a new fitness tracker

Update: The Fitbit Charge 2 is now out - take a look down below to find where the latest device from Fitbit ranks in our guide. Meanwhile, the Fitbit Flex 2 is almost ready for our full review too.

A fitness tracker is the perfect way to monitor your activity easily and with unmatched accuracy. Think of it as an electronic finger on the pulse, constantly measuring your vitals, quality of sleep and step count.

Today's fitness band market is stuffed with compelling devices, most of which can do a pretty good job at the basics of tracking. But frankly, we're only concerned with the best, and you should be too.   

Here are 7 fitness tracker tips to get you started.

If you're looking for a fitness tracker recommendation though, you've come to the right place. Here, we'll showcase the best devices out there, and explain how they rank against each other in terms of stand-out features, price, design and the quality of their companion software – all of which are worth considering when monitoring something as important as your health.

The Fitbit Charge 2 is the best fitness tracker you can buy right now. It's more expensive than most of the other options from Fitbit, but if you're looking to go jogging this is a great choice that won't cost you as much as a traditional running watch.

It connects with the GPS on your phone, has a large screen to display your data, a heart rate tracker and new fitness features we've only previously seen on the Fitbit Blaze.

Aren't you a bit ancient to start jogging?

Speak for yourself!

[Neferti]

I am perfectly fine, thank you. There is no reason for me to start jogging around the neighbourhood. Men tend to do that due to a variety of reasons and mostly it isn't to get "fit" ....

OH, fair enough!

You do realise some do come with a vibrator function for toning up the muscles!

[Neferti]

No need for vibrators here. My muscles are fine.

So, did you walk around the block then? 1.6 km should take you about 10 minutes. I walk further than that, daily, just wandering around the house.

You ought to get some golf clubs and have a daily hit and miss around the Golf Course. Or get a dog and take it for a 5 km walk every morning and evening. The dog will love you for it and you will lose weight as well. A 5km walk would take an average person about an hour.
