Anyone use a Fitness Band or Fitness Watch?
I’ve been looking for one but I can’t find one that fits my needs. A significant portion of my fitness activities involve weightlifting. My research seems to indicate that these products fail to accurately/effectively deal with this activity. Also, I’m not sure something around the wrist is a great idea as I use lifting straps for shrugs and back exercises.
The only products I see that do weightlifting are sleeves which are well, just no (if you are a weightlifter you’ll understand on sight).
I don’t need it to even track a workout. I really would just like it to accurately reflect cardio and calories burned during the weightlifting. I guess to do all that it might need to track a workout, I dunno.
I also don’t want to stand there fumbling with the product before each set.
Does anyone have any input on this?

Edit 04FEB2019
I give up. All I wanted was a watch that accurately measures cardio and calories burned across all my activities. Especially and including weightlifting. I don’t need a coach, or advice. I don’t want to input my reps. I could live with a external monitor of some kind tied to the watch but not an arm or chest band. AFAIK the device I want doesn’t exist.

Warning – This a completely Off Topic and self-serving post.
I’ve put this here as much as a place maker for myself as anything.

The Redskins suck. They’ve sucked for a long time. So long that the once rabid fan-base has mostly become “over it”. For a little while each season I try to care, but I just don’t. Not anymore. I’m a guy that used to watch 3 NFL games at once. Usually one of them was my other favorite, the Raiders. Yeah I know, I can really pick’em. At least my Sundays are free for other things now.
