That depends on your activity level and how much you have pushed yourself.

My Watch is killing me some months.
For people like me who never knew what it is like to cope with life without a Watch/Phone/Tablet then it’s great to be told not just how and what to think but how to move my physical self as well. Can you just imagine what it was like in those dark olden days of Pre-2000 (was it?) when you had to use your actual brain (whatever that is) to do all that? No thank you.
Now, Mr Watch! What do I do now? Read Facebook? Check! Share a meme?. Yup! Move my arms and legs 10000 times today? Gosh Well, I’ll try!. Make a decision on my own?. Now hang on. I never said I’d commit myself that far!

So I gather you don’t own an Apple Watch? Because if you did, you'd realize it’s far more than just a ‘gadget’. In terms of the health aspects and how the Apple has expanded the fitness capabilities with different workout segments, it’s more like a health companion tool that customizes to everyone differently.
Sure. Earning digital not worth anything medal is a priority. Sorry. A challenge. LMAO
Who said it was a priority? I don’t think anyone who completes these monthly challenges is looking for a ‘medal’ of anything, it’s just the fact that they completed something to _better_ themselves, not for the satisfaction of receiving a digital metal. Perhaps you might have a misunderstanding what the purposes of these digital badges are for.
Yet another one who doesn’t know what an Watch is.
It’s not just a fitness device per se.
I’m disabled and wouldn’t miss my Watch for a day.
And ’s activity graph sucks. Fitbit graphs are way better. Much more detailed and more info you can actually use.
Calories, moving and training. That’s it.
When did Apple Watch cease to be an "actual product"?
Yes but how will people value-posture with instagrams and whatever posts about how they're saving the environment by eschewing a straw with their non-gmo fair trade imported soy non fat mocha frappa-macha-latte-iado?
You're well on your way to completing your negativity badge for this week!
Another challenge but still no overtraining notification
(Or is there ...?)
More ain’t always better in sports

Why are people over-interpreting Relentless Power's comment? Activity has some gamification. It's working for Relentless Power. That's all.
Nope.... But whats crazy is when you upgrade, within Health app go to sources and you'll see prior models but if remove them will purge older data
Probably because he asked if everyone else was as addicted to completing Apple Watch challenges as he is.
People responded to his question with their opinion(s). It's a forum. That happens from time to time.
It's possible to respond "nah, it's not my cup of tea", "the Apple Watch is too expensive", or "I don't need this".
It's not necessary to insult people in the process.
That's awesome. I'm currently on a 119 day move streak and i'm going for the 365/500/1000 move goal awards...
My wife and I went out to get the National Parks Challenge award last year and we came home with a kitten from our hike out in the woods.
Good times!
Good times!
I like the badges but they already did Earth Day and it’s not much of a fitness day. There are lots of holidays with better fitness correlation that they could use to add some variety.

438 day streak and getting close to 1000. The gamification totally has me!
Wow! Great job! Keep it up. What differences in your resting heart rate have you seen from the beginning until now?
This happened to me. I wanted to try out the run club app from nike to help coach me into getting a good running routine, but after a few runs noticed it wouldn't track the same way as the stock health app does so i ditched it
I use the Nike app and it imports my runs into fitness and counts the time JS calories towards my totals for every other award - it would be surprising if it didn’t work for these one off ones. I did check for Woman’s Day but I didn’t run I did something else that day.
