FitPacerWho writes
Guides and articles are written by the FitPacer team. They are not currently reviewed by a health professional: that is why every claim about a benefit points to a published source, and every page lists the precautions to take.
Our sources
- First, official guidelines: World Health Organization, NHS, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, American College of Sports Medicine.
- Then systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and controlled trials published in peer-reviewed journals.
- Popular books (for example Atomic Habits) are cited as such: they explain a method, they do not prove it.
- Each reference is checked one by one: the study exists, its link (DOI, PubMed or official site) leads to it, and what we say matches what it studies.
How we cite
In the guides, each benefit backed by a study carries a number in brackets pointing to its source at the bottom of the page. Practical tips (equipment, duration, steps) are not presented as proven. Articles name the study authors in the text and link them to the reference list.
Caution
Each guide says who the routine suits and its precautions. The effects described are those observed in studies, on average and under their conditions: they do not guarantee an individual result. Our content does not replace the advice of a health professional.
Updates and corrections
Each page shows its publication date and last update. We update it when an important source is published, when the app changes, or when a mistake is reported. To report a mistake: in the app, Settings › Send feedback. Corrections are made on the page itself, and its update date changes.
Independence and tools
FitPacer sells no advertising, has no commercial partner and earns no commission: no product is promoted for payment. The guides also show how to do the routine in FitPacer, our app. We may use writing tools, including artificial intelligence; the sources themselves are checked one by one under the rules above.
