Utilizing 24-hour heart rate monitoring and various exercise and activity tracking features

Fitbit, Inc. announced that it is sponsoring "100-Day Promise," a talent donation project by Arnold Hong, widely known as South Korea's first-generation fitness trainer and health advocate.

"100-Day Promise" is a talent donation project that trainer Arnold Hong has been conducting three times a year since 2008. The 32 challengers selected for this 29th session will embark on a challenge to transform into healthier versions of themselves through customized exercise and dietary management provided by trainer Arnold Hong.

Fitbit is providing all "100-Day Promise" participants with its popular products "Alta HR" and "Charge 2," which represent the culmination of Fitbit's fitness wearable technology, helping participants achieve their goals for efficient health management and body fitness.

Using Fitbit's "Alta HR" and "Charge 2," participants will be able to track not only activity levels such as daily step count, distance traveled, and calories burned, but also leverage real-time heart rate monitoring functionality to engage in optimized exercise based on more accurate data.

The "Alta HR," launched domestically this year, automatically provides more accurate workout time, calorie burn, resting heart rate statistics, and analysis of three exercise zones (fat burn, cardio, peak) through 24-hour real-time heart rate monitoring using the PurePulse sensor. Additionally, through sleep stage tracking functionality, it automatically calculates the user's light sleep, deep sleep, and REM sleep duration and wake time to assess sleep quality, and informs the user whether they woke up refreshed or not.

"Charge 2," which provides enhanced fitness features, allows users to record various exercises such as running, cycling, weightlifting, and yoga through "Multi-Sport Mode," and after exercise, displays workout statistics in report form on the Fitbit app. Additionally, using the smartphone's GPS, users can check exercise information such as speed and distance in real-time with greater accuracy while running, and with the app, users can also view their workout routes in map format.

Arnold Hong stated, "I have consistently used Fitbit over the past three years, and Fitbit is an optimized smart wearable device for maintaining a healthy daily life because it accurately measures not only exercise volume and heart rate but also sleep records, displaying various health indicators at a glance. I hope that the 29th session participants will enjoy and engage in exercise more enjoyably and efficiently through Fitbit's various health management features."
