My Garmin sends me weekly reports, but doesn't break down the individual steps by day, just the average.

Last week, 6114 average for total of 42,798 steps.

Is there a way to get the emailed report to break down by day? I know I can log in and see the exact number.

In email I don’t know. I just use the app

My weekly total "should" be higher. I found that when using yard tools, like a weedeater and push mower the watch doesn't count any steps. Was wondering how I cut my yard and the neighbor's yard (about 18,000 sq ft combined) in less than 1000 steps.

15K daily? Fuuuuck me. Even walking 4-5 miles on the beach in FL I barely got 12,000 steps. My average stride is 20 steps over 50'.

dunno what my stride is. was in thailand at the start of this, back in the states for a month in july (lowest marks) then mexico city for the rest of this chart, although i didn't always have it on.

my record day is 50k, during which i walked to 4 burger places in mexico city on a weekend. i made the definitive burger guide for mexico city and had 91 burgers from 82 restaurants in 38 days. should have actually made this long burger thread into a video really.

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve made some posts on here – apparently 3 years – but look, we’ve got something important to talk about. That something important is burgers. I was “stuck” during the pandemic for about 18…

IIRC you log into the Fitbit website and in your profile settings you can change your stride length. Default is “automatic”, which I found to be inaccurate. You have to measure your stride length and then enter it.

With the Garmin you enter both the distance measured and the number of steps. So like I said, I’m 20 steps over 50’ I could also enter 40 steps over 100’. Both fields are open to enter a value.

My week at Disney. Lot more than usual lol

 

[Sprayin]

July, August, and September are throwing off the average because that's when I got the new phone and it wasn't on for a while. Not as high as I'd like it.

i did some spot checks when i had the prior one above when i first got it, and it seemed to be working well. i'll test the new one when i go for a longer walk and adjust accordingly, thanks!
