Smartwatches and wearable fitness trackers are increasingly popular and accessible to individuals hoping to improve health and fitness. These devices can help motivate individuals by tracking various metrics including step count, mileage, calories burned and overall daily activity levels. However, research on the validity, reliability and limitations should be considered by smartwatch users.
This virtual event is on Tuesday, May 20, from noon to 1 p.m.
