Fit and healthy with the new Alexa fitness skills

Alexa has a lot of different skills. We checked out the Alexa fitness skills to see if they really help you stay on track.

For those who lack motivation and are constantly trying to talk themselves out of exercising, there is the Fitness Motivation Alexa Skill. With this skill, you can recall a variety of motivational phrases to get you moving.

There is also the "My Motivator Alexa skill". This skill is similar to the one already introduced, but it leaves a lot to be desired by using compliments to get you active.

The "Fitbit-Alexa Skill", on the other hand, really helps you to exercise, because with the help of this skill you can get your data from your Fitbit fitness tracker more easily. All you have to do is connect your Fitbit wristband or smartwatch to Alexa to get your heart rate or calories burned. The only downside is that you need a Fitbit account.
