Get a smartwatch with Gadgetbridge support and keep your data on your phone.

There's also FitoTrack which is an open source, local android app for fitness tracking
HealthyPi Move is open source (including hardware) and doesn't send data anywhere (only locally to the app being developed). It's available for pre-order at this time.
Garmin then use the FOSS Garmin connect app I forget the name. You get all the fancy important data and monitoring. None of the worries. Or just don't sync your data and monitor over time on the watch itself. Batteries are second to none. Garmin is the way to go. I've tried them all.
I wouldn't characterize Garmin as having a business model based on data mining, their privacy policy is actually the best out of the mainstream fitness watches and they're probably one of the best privacy respecting choices especially if you don't connect it to the internet. It doesn't necessarily satisfy OPs requirement of not sending data to the US, though.

What are you looking to track? Also, don't worry if you don't know how to self host, that's what the community is for 🙂
Pencil and paper. In a small safe. :(
Not sure, but maybe a Casio G-Shock? You'll likely still be spied on, but maybe not by the US? Personally, i wear a Huawei,,, oh well.
