New to  Watch

[comiken205]

Well, I’m literally sitting at the Chandler, AZ mall setting up my Apple Watch. Maybe I shouldn’t have but I hear everyone of you and your goals and how you’re losing weight and having fun. Since my Fitbit bricked on me I needed something to give me a push. Well, spending $400 will certainly motivate my rear right? Let’s hope.

It should. Anyway, congratulations on getting your new Watch.

Well the Apple Watch will notify if you’re not on par with your regular pace or behind on your goals, so there is that. Congrats on your Apple Watch.

Congrats. I literally decided to ditch my Fitbit One today to solely use my AW. I’ll miss the social aspects of Fitbit as my friends are all on it but I’m tired of using both.

That’s is one thing I do miss of my Fitbit, the social aspect. Maybe AW has one? Still learning.

Yep. After you pair your watch to your phone, you will have an Activity app on the iPhone, and there is a tab called "Sharing" that lets you be social about your activity.

Yea but not the same and way more people have fitbits than AWs.

Congrats on your new Apple Watch! Yeah spending $400 is definitely an immediate motivation since you want to see some kind of return on your money. Enjoy!!

With the Outdoor Walk workout, you’ll have to brisk walk or have a certain bpm for it to count into your exercise rings.

Ok. I wonder what that BPM is? I was steady at 129 bpm and 3.4 mph. I guess I’ll have to work on that to figure it out. Thank you

I’m not sure.. 120bpm perhaps?
I tend to walk at a faster pace too.

I think 3.4 mph is around 6kph?

3.4 mph = 5.7 kph
