The EFM Health Club Podcast

Are Your Wearables Helping or Hurting Your Fitness?

Justin Waring Season 2 Episode 12

In this episode of the EFM Health Club Podcast, we dive into the world of fitness wearables—the watches, trackers, and apps that promise to keep us fitter, healthier, and more in control. But do they actually deliver?

We break down what wearables do well (like tracking habits and spotting recovery issues) and where they might be leading you astray (think: obsession with calorie burn or blindly trusting the numbers). From step goals to heart rate zones, Body Battery to VO2 max estimates—we explore the useful, the overrated, and the just plain misunderstood.

Whether you’re a data nerd or just trying to decide if a fitness tracker is worth it, this episode will help you use wearables smarter—not just more often.
