Hi all, I have been looking into fitness trackers recently as I would like to track cals, distance, time per Km. I came across this Moov Now- pre order with €20 discount ( ending tonight). I may be easily pleased but it seems really impressive for the money (equivalent of £39). Appears to offer the same as Fitbits, polar and Garmin, but far cheaper and with a 'personal trainer' voice over telling you if you are hitting the ground too hard.. This is the steepest hill you have climbed etc...take a look and the more experienced of you can tell me if you think its value for money. All in all with shipping it comes to around £52. moov.cc/getmoov/15C75C31CA

Let me know what you think. 🎭

I have one of these and find the running efficiency programme really good for increasing my cadence. You will need to run with your phone though.

The only caveat I would add though is that it does not track steps like a Fitbit, just active minutes.

I would suggest a garmin and using MFP ( it's a free app), but you go with what works for you....

I have a misfit shine for steps, calories and sleep. I have used it constantly for nearly two years and it works really well, the only thing is it doesn't give me pace just overall distance in the day. I use a garmin for pace but before that I used the Runtastic app. I must say I have read up about the moov and was interested, the write up is great just wondered how it can be so intuitive about getting up hills and things, if you get it please let us know how it is.

Thank's everyone. - I've ordered one so will let you if it lives up to the hype...

I have just bought a Fitbit Surge for my step son for his birthday, that he asked for. He plays a lot of Rugby as well as running. So will be able to compare with this too.

Many Thanks
