Why Sleep Tracking Is Replacing Step Counts in Fitness

Many people used to focus on reaching a daily step goal.

The article says more people are now paying attention to how well they sleep.

Step counts show how much someone moved, but not how rested their body is.

Some wearables measure sleep stages and overnight body signals.

Smart rings are one option because they are small and can last several days without charging.

The article argues that good sleep can support energy, mood, and recovery.

It also says pushing hard after very little sleep may lead to burnout.

The main idea is to balance activity with rest.
