Nine Gadgets That Can Supercharge Your Workouts
We took a look at this year’s hottest fitness gadgets and gizmos to see which ones are worth the workout. Here are our top 9 fitness picks that can help you shape up in record time—with just the push of a button! By Myatt Murphy, author of the Ultimate Dumbbell Guide
1. The Timex Health Tracker ($65; www.timex.com)
Why we like it: Designed specifically for women looking to lose a few pounds, or, just boost their daily activity, the Timex Health Tracker has a built-in “workout mode” that automatically records how many steps you’ve walked, how far you’ve gone distance-wise, and how many calories you’re burning as you go, simply by sensing the swinging motion of your arm—it even beeps you when you’ve reached the half-way mark of your fitness goal for the day. But what we really love is that it also lets you secretly enter and record how many calories you’re eating during the day—without anyone else knowing what you’re doing.
