How BodyMedia FIT Works

Just tracking steps isn't enough.

To lose weight, it's good to have an accurate picture of your calorie burn. BodyMedia FIT system uses four sophisticated sensors to track over 9,000 variables — from heat to sweat to steps to calories burned — every minute of every day. If you take a walk, most body monitors (ours included) show a level of calorie burn. Take that same walk up Mt. McKinley or any incline and we'll show you a higher calorie burn. BodyMedia FIT captures that important difference because our sensors measure more variables.

Data doesn't mean squat unless you can use it.

BodyMedia FIT makes it easy. Just plug the unit into your computer's USB port each day to automatically upload info. Then simply log in the food you ate and our exclusive Activity Manager* tool gives you a complete report of progress toward your weight loss and fitness goals, including number of steps taken, time spent in low, moderate and vigorous activity, nutritional analysis and sleep efficiency. Plus, it keeps a running record so you know when you've hit a personal best.

* Subscription required. The Armband does not display information on its own, rather works in conjunction with the Online Activity Manager.
