The first of these is a revamped version of the Fitbit app. A new tab dedicated to wellness will make it more straightforward for users to track and manage their health data (though the basics will remain much the same). The second change is a new feature offering on-demand fitness and nutrition coaching. Paid subscribers will be able to schedule 25-minute sessions with personal coaches.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, there you have it. The tech giant Google can add another feather to its cap now &#8211; a &#8216;benevolent health overlord&#8217;. Yes, with the upcoming launch of numerous features and upgrades to Fitbit wearables, they aim to sculpt a healthier society. Imagine an omnipresent personal trainer giving no quarter to laziness and monotony, and that\u2019s the revamped Fitbit for you in a nutshell. <\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with the Fitbit app overhaul. It\u2019s getting a shiny new wellness tab for, you guessed it, a tonneau load of health data. Isn&#8217;t it thoughtful of Google to compile all your health data details into a neat, tidy little corner? While the fundamentals remained untouched, adding this wellness tab facelift could arguably make it more user-friendly to track and manage your personal wellness data.  <\/p>\n<p>Then enter the pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance: 25 minutes of on-demand fitness and nutrition coaching. For a modest price, subscribers can schedule personal coaching sessions with professionals. This isn&#8217;t just a simple chat with some AI bot trying hard to crack human jokes. No, you get actual professionals dispensing advice, answering your queries, and generally aiding your journey to a healthier life, one step at a time.  <\/p>\n<p>All in all, amping up its contribution in the health and wellness domain, Google&#8217;s Fitbit isn\u2019t stopping at just fitness tracking. It&#8217;s entering the realm of providing personalized, on-demand coaching. Sure it comes with a cost, but isn&#8217;t a stepping stone for better health worth it? With these new changes on the horizon, the future of wearable tech might just be a hop, skip, jump away. <\/p>\n<p>So don the Fitbit and embark on a healthier journey. After all, in a world so fixated on fitness, who wouldn&#8217;t want a pocket-sized motivator nudging you towards a healthier lifestyle, all day, every day? Give a nod to Google for pushing the boundary just that much further for all the fitness junkies and wellness warriors out there.<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/google-fitbit-health-coach-preview\/\">Read the original article here: https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/google-fitbit-health-coach-preview\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google aims to be your benevolent health overlord with Fitbit updates in 2022, adding a wellness tab to help manage health data and personalized fitness coaching.
