Fitness trackers, worn hard and reviewed honestly.

I’m Josh — a lifelong athlete (track, basketball, martial arts) who works in information security by day and usually has more than one tracker strapped on at once. Every review here is first-person and written after weeks of real training, real sleep, and real sweat.

I love the data provided by Biostrap but can’t justify buying another device knowing all the issues it has.

    Garmin Vivoactive 3 Review

    Overall, the Va3 is a great device. It’s somewhat a jack of all trades while being a master of none.

    Microsoft Band 2 Review

    Is it worth buying? Definitely. In my opinion, it’s the best combination of fitness tracker and smart watch on the market.

    Garmin Vivoactive HR Review

    I think this device is great for someone who is into many aspects of fitness. The catch? The information provided by the device isn’t as accurate as you’d like.

Field notes

“I’m usually wearing multiple fitness trackers at any given time.” Friends kept asking which ones were worth it — so I started writing it down.
