Getting Started: Your First Week
Welcome to eFit! Complete these tasks in your first week to set yourself up for success.
Day 1: Account Setup
Complete registration. Make sure your LMS username matches exactly what is in your school system.
Connect with Google Health. Open Sync Tracker and connect Google Health so eFit can read your steps and active minutes. Grant every requested permission. On Android, first set up Android Health Connect. On iPhone, install the Google Health app.
Verify your first sync. Check that your activity data appears in eFit within a day of connecting.
Day 2-3: Explore Your Dashboard
Review your course modules. Browse the educational content available in your course.
Check your assignments. Note due dates for fitness assessments, activity tracking, and other requirements.
Understand your ExerDays requirement. Know how many active days per week count toward your grade (typically 5).
Day 4-5: Build Your Routine
Sync your tracker daily. Open your fitness app each day so your data flows through Google Health to eFit.
Log your first activities. Start building your activity history. Remember, only your top ExerDays count.
Explore gamification features. Check out badges, leaderboards, and educational games.
Day 6-7: Verify Everything Works
Confirm a week of data. Verify that your daily activity is being recorded accurately.
Check your grade preview. Visit the Grades section to see how your first week is tracking.
