Simple Fitness Improving Gadgets That Help You Get More Out Of Every Training Session

People say that it’s hard to stay fit in their busy lives. It’s understandable. We have busy jobs, families, and in many cases long commuting times. But, if you are determined to stay healthy and fit, there are many things that you can do to stay in shape.

Something that you may want to consider is investing in fitness gadgets. As a personal trainer I’ve helped many people get the absolute most out of every single minute of training. And the great thing is that you can use many of these in everyday life.

One of my clients changed his daily commuting routine to take the stairs in his office to the 7th floor each day. Great idea, and you can make it even more effective by strapping on some ankle weights. Simple things like this can make a huge difference.

My Top Recommendations

Take a look at my favorite fitness: improving: gadgets and pick the ones that you think will help you to stay fit, no matter how busy your life may be. While these items may not be 100 percent necessary, they sure can make your fitness goals that much more attainable than they were before.

  • Ankle weights: Who says that you can’t get some exercise in while running errands? With ankle weights you can strengthen your legs and body as you go. Whether you choose to walk to places where you need to go or make a point of walking around as much as possible while wearing ankle weights, they can make a difference.
    They can also help enhance your exercise efforts. Using them while jogging can help you to build up to running longer and more efficiently.
  • Earphones: There is nothing like adding your favorite music to your workout routine. Listening to music with a beat can go far in helping you to stay motivated. Whether you plan on running daily for your exercise or you enjoy cycling, earphones will make a world of difference for your fitness.
    If you want to stay safe and also not have to worry about cords getting in the way, invest in a good pair of Bluetooth headphones, so you can comfortably exercise while listening to music.
  • Yoga mat: As long as you have your yoga mat, there is no limit to where you can exercise. Whether you’re traveling and want to do some yoga before your flight or you like to practice yoga during your lunch break, it’s always a good idea to have a yoga mat with you wherever you go.
    The good thing about yoga is that you don’t always break a sweat doing it but you are still doing plenty of good things for your body. It’s what makes it easy to do at any time of the day or anywhere you go.
  • Jump rope: Quite possibly one of the best ways to have fun while you’re exercising, jump: roping is the exercise that you can do anywhere you go. Because it is a high: intensity workout, you don’t have to invest much more than 20 minutes for a good heart: pumping experience.
  • Clothes with sensors: If you’re not big on wearing things on you while exercising, other than your clothes, consider investing in smart clothes that have tracking sensors. They work like fitness trackers, but are not noticeable on your body.
  • Listen to music underwater. It used to be that when you wanted to go swimming, you couldn’t listen to music. For those who keep up with their fitness in the swimming pool, they can now use audio devices that work under water. You simply attach them to your goggles and you’re ready to swim to the beat of your favorite music. This gadget is certainly a swimmer’s biggest dream come true.
  • Audio statistics for cyclists. While you may be able to check your heart rate and more while running, when you’re cycling, it can be a bit dangerous to pay attention to your phone. That’s why you may want to use an app or device that audibly alerts you to what’s going on with your body as you go. This can help you to train accurately and safely.
  • A fork that lets you know when you’ve had enough. If you’re the kind of person who gets annoyed when people tell you to eat less, this may not be the fitness gadget for you. In fact, it’s not really a fitness gadget, but since everyone knows that what we eat affects our weight, you may want to take it into consideration.
    A smart: fork can let you know when you’re eating too fast and how much may be too much. It connects to an app and saves your information, so that you can keep track of your eating habits.

Final Thoughts

It can seem overwhelming to stay in control of your fitness but with gadgets like the ones mentioned here, you can make it easier “to be good.” Which kinds of gadgets do you use for your fitness and diet? Do you have any favorites that help you to stay in shape, even with your busy lifestyle?

Hi there, I’m Kate Young and I’m a fitness coach from California, but I now live in Austin. I have been involved in so many different sports over the years, including swimming, running, athletics, gymnastics, rugby (yeas, you read that right), baseball, tennis, and so many more that I have lost count.

I just love competing in sports, but struggled to find the one that I would stick with. So, instead I decided to become a fitness coach as it allows me to work with so many different types of athletes.

I’ve also become heavily involved it diet. The reason for this is that I’ve seen too many athletes fail in their fitness goals because their diet didn’t support it. And I’ve seen just as many people fail in their diets, because their fitness activities weren’t effective.

A lot of my work has involved working up with college tennis teams where I have tailored some endurance type fitness programs. Tennis coaches are great at teaching techniques, but a lot of them struggle with general fitness levels.

And that’s where I come in. On this site I contribute to anything tennis, fitness and diet related, which will help you get to your goals quicker and with more ease. And if you have some very specific questions then why not reach out on one of the social media channels where all of us are very active.

We will be happy to hear your thoughts
