Thinking of using an activity tracker to achieve your exercise goals? Here's where it can help – and where it probably won't

Doing more physical activity is a popular and worthwhile goal.

Key Points: 
  • Doing more physical activity is a popular and worthwhile goal.
  • If you’re hoping to be more active in 2024, perhaps you’ve invested in an activity tracker, or you’re considering buying one.
  • And will a basic tracker do the trick, or do you need a fancy one with lots of features?

Why use an activity tracker?

  • Most people have a vague idea of how active they are, but this is inaccurate a lot of the time.
  • Once people consciously start to keep track of how much activity they do, they often realise it’s less than what they thought, and this motivates them to be more active.
  • By tracking steps or “activity minutes” you can ascertain whether or not you are meeting the physical activity guidelines (150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week).
  • Research has shown the most popular brands of activity trackers are generally reliable when it comes to tracking basic measures such as steps and activity minutes.

But wait, there’s more

  • Resting heart rate This is your heart rate at rest, which is normally somewhere between 60 and 100 beats per minute.
  • Your resting heart rate will gradually go down as you become fitter, especially if you’re doing a lot of high-intensity exercise.
  • Your risk of dying of any cause (all-cause mortality) is much lower when you have a low resting heart rate.
  • Heart rate during exercise Activity trackers will also measure your heart rate when you’re active.
  • The more oxygen your body can process, the harder you can work, and therefore the fitter you are.
  • Inactive women and men would have a VO₂max lower than 30 and 40 ml/kg/min, respectively.
  • A reasonably good VO₂max would be mid thirties and higher for women and mid forties and higher for men.
  • For athletes, VO₂max is usually measured in a lab on a treadmill while wearing a mask that measures oxygen consumption.

Our 'food environments' affect what we eat. Here's how you can change yours to support healthier eating

Achieving these is often challenging – it can be difficult to change our eating habits.

Key Points: 
  • Achieving these is often challenging – it can be difficult to change our eating habits.
  • The collective physical, economic, policy and sociocultural surroundings, opportunities and conditions that influence people’s food and beverage choices and nutritional status.
  • But it’s possible to change certain aspects of our personal food environments, making eating healthier a little easier.

Unhealthy food environments

  • Our food environments also provide us with various prompts to eat unhealthy foods via the media and advertising, alongside health and nutrition claims and appealing marketing images on food packaging.
  • For example, social occasions or work functions might see large amounts of unhealthy food on offer.
  • Here’s what’s driving our unhealthy food habits

Not everyone is affected in the same way

  • People who are more susceptible will likely eat more and eat more unhealthy foods than those who are more immune to the effects of food environments and situations.
  • These people might also be more likely to experience physiological reactions to food cues including changes in heart rate and increased salivation.
  • Some of us tend to eat when we’re tired or in a bad mood, having learned over time eating provides comfort in these situations.
  • Being in front of a TV or other screen can also prompt people to eat, eat unhealthy foods, or eat more than intended.

Making changes

  • Then you can restructure some aspects of your personal food environments, which can help if you’re working towards healthier eating goals.
  • Foods consumed as snacks are often sugary drinks, confectionery, chips and cakes.
  • Try removing unhealthy foods, particularly packaged snacks, from the house, or not buying them in the first place.
  • This means temptations are removed, which can be especially helpful for those who may be more susceptible to their food environment.
