Student exercise data is just a button-press away on our smallest pedometer. Measure steps, activity time, and level of physical activity to help students stay active and engaged in their personal fitness. Its low-profile, high-tech design is durable and simple enough for institutional settings, offering superior functionality in the hands of any age user.
Specifications:
Steps
Measures total steps taken.
Activity Time
Measures total time the user is in motion, not accounting for the intensity of the activity. For example, a slow walk would be measured the same as a fast run.
MVPA (Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity)
See our video series on the FITstep family for further details.
Large LCD display offers easy and quick data comprehension.
Delayed reset button prevents accidental deletion of user data.
Sleep mode saves energy.
A compact design reduces distraction during activity.
An alligator clip securely attaches to waistbands.
A storage case allows you to easily pack up after class and store pedometers.
A replaceable battery eliminates hassle of charging between classes.

Which pedometer is right for me?
Understanding the functions of each pedometer is important when choosing the right model for you.
Distance
To calculate distance walked, the pedometer multiplies the number of steps taken by the average stride length entered for the user. Accuracy in calculating this distance is directly related to how much variation there is in the user's walking/running speed.
Caloric Expenditure
Step count is used to calculate the approximate number of calories expended. Calculations are made using data from clinical testing on average-size individuals. A pedometer's caloric calculations should be used as a reference only and not as an accurate measurement like with step count, MVPA, activity time, and distance.
Total Activity Time
To calculate your total activity time, the pedometer begins recording each time you begin to move and stops recording when you stop moving. SHAPE America guidelines recommend at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity for children, 30 minutes for adults.
MVPA
MVPA (Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity) refers to physical activity that elevates a person's heart rate for a sustained period of time. An example of moderate activity includes a brisk walk; vigorous activity is a fast run. By tracking both the time and the intensity of activity, Gopher's FITstep™ pedometers are able to calculate 10-minute bouts of MVPA. SHAPE America's guideline of at least 60 minutes of physical activity per day dedicates a portion of that time (approximately 50%) to MVPA.
Step Count
The primary function of a pedometer is to measure step count. Most pedometers measure step count through a pendulum, although the FITstep™ Plus and Pro feature new technology for more precise step counting than others. Thanks to this mechanism, these pedometers give a more accurate count even when they are not perfectly upright.
Proper Positioning
Pedometers yield the most accurate results when properly placed on the user's waistband directly above the knee. Our FITstep™ Pro and FITstep™ Plus models now feature piezoelectric technology that allows the pedometer to count at any angle, eliminating the fuss of making sure it's always in an upright position. Most of our pedometers feature an alligator-style clip that easily fastens securely to belts, waistbands, and even rolled-over sweatpants.
