Activity Tracker Stats
Before Kids:
- You get more steps by parking farther away.
- You sleep at pretty regular times during the week, but the weekends? Up late, slept in.
- Your heart rate goes up and counts dancing on the weekend as impromptu exercise.
- You logged steps at 1 a.m. because you had to pee.
- It was nice out, so you decided to go for a walk.
- You logged most of your steps at the gym.
After Kids:
- You get more steps by walking to the kitchen a million times because someone needs a refill or a different colored spoon.
- You rise at the same time time every damn day of the week.
- Your heart rate goes up and counts carrying your kids at the grocery store as impromptu exercise.
- You logged steps at 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. because they had to pee.
- Your kid wouldn’t nap, so you decided to go for a walk with the stroller.
- You logged most of your steps chasing your kid around, convincing them to get dressed.
