IT’S hard to force yourself into the gym when the sun is shining outside. But a third of people say using a fitness tracker helps them to stick to their goals.
Want to give one a go? Don’t break the bank for top-of-the-range Fitbits and smart watches — I’ve tracked down some great deals . . .

BEST BUDGET: The Xiaomi Mi Band 3, £26.71 from Amazon, is ultra-cheap, waterproof and can track your steps, sleep and heart rate. Its OLED display is perfect for phone notifications and weather information. You’ll save a bundle on the £129.99 Fitbit Charge 3.
SAVING: £103.28

UNDER A TENNER: Yes, you read that right — you can nab a tracker for less than £10 if you know where to look. Check out wowcher.co.uk where you can currently buy a VeryFit 14-in-1 Fitness Tracker Bracelet for just £9.99, normal RRP £69.99. It will get all your basic tracking, steps and sleep patterns, plus it looks just like the popular Fitbit Alta HR, £89.90.
SAVING: £60
REVAMP THE OLD: If you have an old Fitbit that is still in working order but has seen better days, you don’t need to fork out for an update just to be fashionable. Simply buy a new strap. Classic bands direct from Fitbit cost from £19.99 each, with some models discontinued. But you can still nab bands for the older Fitbit Charge HR for around £2.99 on eBay, with free postage. With so many colours to choose from, it will feel like a whole new tracker.
SAVING: Approx £17
BACK IN YOUR POCKET: If you still want to splurge on a new Fitbit, try Amazon. Those who sign up to TopCashback.co.uk can currently get up to 10 per cent cashback on orders. So if you opt for the latest Fitbit Charge 3 — which is already down from £129.99 to £117.66 on Amazon — you could save another £11.76. Run to it . . .
SAVING: £24.09
