A data analysis project exploring user activity patterns using Fitbit data to generate insights and marketing recommendations for Bellabeat.
This project was completed as the capstone project for the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate in 2023, demonstrating end-to-end data analysis from data cleaning to business recommendations. The objective is to analyze user activity data from Fitbit devices to identify trends in physical activity, sleep, and sedentary behavior, and to provide actionable recommendations for Bellabeat’s marketing strategy.

- FitBit Fitness Tracker Data (Public dataset from Kaggle) View dataset on Kaggle
- Data collected from 33 users over a 31-day period
Users tend to exercise vigorously (Very Active) during the first days of the week (Monday, Tuesdays), and have more Light and Fairly activity during the weekend.
Approximately 80% of daily time is spent in sedentary activities, with only a small percentage dedicated to moderate and vigorous activity.
Minutes Asleep and Sedentary Minutes show a negative relationship. Sedentary time does not lead to a healthy lifestyle, and more sedentary time is related to less sleep.
Additional analyses include box plots for steps, calories, and sleep, as well as correlation and hourly trend analyses.
