    Something like this will give everything you need. No need to spend a fortune on these trackers.

    For an older individual, I'd recommend the Fitbit Inspire 2 or the Garmin Vivosmart 4. They're user-friendly with simple interfaces and fitness tracking features. Also, you might find betterme resource like that helpful for senior fitness. It focuses on wall Pilates, which can be a great addition to their routine. Good luck!

    BP Doctor Pro 12 Circle Dial Wearable Blood Pressure Smartwatch is a smart watch that is very suitable for the elderly. It comes with an airbag strap for daily blood pressure monitoring. In addition, it also provides tracking of heart rate, blood oxygen, steps, sleep, etc. The battery condition is good.

    I have a fitbit inspire and wouldn't recommend it, it's a pain trying to charge it as the connection has never been great, it's fine sometimes but I often end up having to hold it to charge. Some of the interface numbers such as battery % is small and can be challenging to read without glasses or good light. I'm looking for a replacement.
