I was curious to see how the FitBit pedometer handled time on the treadmill.  So, with a weighted vest, I ran .75 miles at 4mph. 

3 rounds

Squats, 135lbs, 10 reps
air squats on the inverted bosu ball, 8 reps

jogged .25 miles on the dreadmill

cable crunches and called it a week.

So the up shot is that there are two ways to handle the treadmill time.  On is to wear the Fitbit and let it do what it does.  The other is to not wear it but to itemize the treadmill in an activity log on the Fitbit dashboard.  The dashboard then does the math and adds the run to the days steps.  I think I'll wear the device during a workout group next and see how that factors.
