Making Invisible Workouts Visible: The Call for ‘Parenting Mode’ in Fitness Trackers


Making Invisible Workouts Visible: The Call for ‘Parenting Mode’ in Fitness Trackers
The Issue
Parenting: the hardest workout you can’t log on your fitness tracker.
We believe parenting is a workout that counts, even if it doesn’t get counted. Everyday movements, from pushing strollers to chasing toddlers, can be invisible to fitness tracker apps.
That’s why we’re calling on fitness tracking companies to introduce “Parenting Mode.” It’s time to give invisible parenting workouts, visible credit.
We see the heavy lifting and marathon days you power through, and it’s time the world does, too. Sign the petition to help make every stroll, squat, and sprint after your kids count.
