For those of you who live in a cave, Apple and Nike have a system
that hooks up an iPod to your shoe and then tracks your mileage,
calories etc. and plans your workouts. You need three things
for this system to work, an iPod,
a Nike+
iPod Sport Kit and
a pair of Nike+ shoes (We love Air
Zoom+). But what if you already have some sweet running
shoes? Order a Run Away adapter
(for 7.99) to hook onto your current kicks. Instead of going
in the secret pocket inside the shoe, this sensor clips on to
the top.
A surefire way to break your fitness resolution is to wipe out
on a patch of ice and twist your ankle or tear a knee ligament.
Then you're missing workouts for weeks. Yaktrax
Pro is a nifty invention to keep people upright. It is a
traction device that fits on the bottom of your regular workout
shoes. Now even the most klutzy among us can traverse
a frozen puddle with ease.
Never
know what to say to that hottie at the gym? Wear these shoes
and you'll definitely have something to talk about. If you missed
these in our blog,
check out Vibram
Five Fingers. They take the bare out of barefoot. Designed
to feel as if your feet are naked these shoes help you run
gently, but just as fast.
Simulated horseback riding is the latest fitness trend in Japan.
Known in Asia as Joba, this phenomenon has finally made it to
the US. Craigslist your creaky elliptical and say "howdy"
to the iGallop
Core and Abs Exerciser. This machine will get your midsection
in top form and strengthen muscles you didn't know you had.
We've all heard that listening to music while biking can be
a safety hazard. Enter the Giro
G10 Wireless Audio Series Helmet. This helmet plays the
music near your ears, not in them, so that you can actually hear
car horns, ambulances and growling bears while you ride.
Have a need to show the world your stuff? Pick up this Waterproof
Action Cam. Strap it on to your helmet and the world can be
your audience as you board, bike or paddle.
