Let's get one thing straight: technology exists to serve you, not the other way round. With that concept firmly in place, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that I disable a whole chunk of fitness notifications on my Apple Watch Ultra, Fitbit Charge 4 or whatever other health-related wearable I’ve got strapped to my wrist.
I’m relatively lucky, I guess; I’ve never needed much in terms of external motivation to get me to lace up a pair of the best running shoes or grab a set of the best adjustable dumbbells and work up a sweat. To me, the constant buzzing or chirruping of something on my wrist is nothing but an annoyance and one of the reasons I sometimes prefer a regular watch over a smartwatch.
