The Ball State Clinical Exercise Physiology Program found activity trackers, like a Fitbit shown above, are not as accurate as we think, according to a newly released study. The study began in the Fall 2014 semester; at the time there were 3.5 million trackers sold every year in the United States. The Fitbit company has been facing a lawsuit since earlier this year due to the inaccuracies.  DN FILE PHOTO BREANNA DAUGHERTY
