Admit it, no matter how many times you write down "Exercise more," on your list of new year's resolutions, you always find yourself putting it off. You've given yourself a thousand pep talks and feel you are poised and raring to go, only to find yourself in the middle of the year still without a clearly defined fitness program.
For a lot of people, it could just boil down to motivation. And let's face it, gadgets do have a way of exciting people - even the fitness industry recognizes this. Read on for a rundown of this year's most popular fitness gadgets and who knows, you just might find one suitable for you.
Nike and iPod Combine to Form Sport Kit
When you get the Nike + iPod, it's almost akin to having an all in one fitness package. This comes with a sensor that measures how fast you run, how far you've gone, and even the calories you've burned. It allows you to input workout programs so you can choose tailored workouts. All of this information can be recorded into the iPod then saved onto your computer so you can keep track of your progress accordingly. You can even listen to your favorite tunes to make your workout more fun.
Exploring with Satmap Active 10
Explore the outdoors with confidence with the Satmap Active 10. The Active 10 is a sports GPS that provides over a hundred maps and boasts of features such as direction indicator, route planning, compass and map orientation. The GPS is shock and water proof so you don't have to worry about it being exposed to the outdoors.
Nintendo Pioneers Workout with Wii Fit
In the past, video games have gone hand in hand with a sedentary lifestyle. Nintendo is changing that relationship with its Wii Fit, a unique gaming device that allows you to do more than 40 exercises. One of the four modes is bound to suit your fitness level. Not to mention it's fun.
MiLife
Personal trainers can be expensive, so you may want to try this electronic stand-in. MiLife is an online program that includes personalized fitness programs, diet plans, and specific exercises to address issues you need to work on.
A Complete Cubic Workout
This piece of strength training equipment folds into a box. The Fitness Cube lets you keep your exercise equipment in almost any space, and you can do as many as 30 different exercises with it. Included in the deal is a floor mat and several additional items.
Finis Lap Track
The Finis Lap Track can help swimmers accurately measure their progress. It adheres to the side of the pool and the swimmer presses the button as the complete each lap. It records your times and the number of laps you've made.
With a little bit of technological inspiration, you should be able to get started with your physical fitness program. Remember to choose well as some gadgets can get quite pricey. You wouldn't want to have spent so much money on something that ends up unused, lying in a corner of your home.
