What's The Best Pedometer?

A pedometer is one of the best ways to keep track of your movement, your activity in day. Your activity levels - or your 'out put' can help you determine your 'in take levels' to help you modify your in take or diet, so you can more easily maintain your weight and health goals.

This article features the top three pedometers available today. They are each in a different format, so you will be able to choose the features and style that suits your needs best.

Firstly we have the most popular pedometer, the wildly popular Fitbit Wireless Activity/Sleep Tracker, Black/Blue which tracks your steps, the stairs you climbed, the distance covered, calories burned, and activity level via 3-d motion sensor and altimeter technology - and it downloads it wirelessly to your computer as you come within a short distance of it - it also updates your iPhone too if you install the app.  If you are a charts and graphs person, you will love this information.  Be sure to check out the quick video on the review page to get a good overview of the features available - and see the cool technology in action!

Clever than it looks, the Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer tracks yours steps and calories etc, as you would expect and it also zeros itself at midnight, and keeps a works worth of info in a log so you only have to stop once a week to record your results - very clever. It clips to your belt or waistband - and there is a customer photo of it attached to shoe laces. You can also get a holster and leach for it. The important thing with pedometers is that you wear it from when you get out of bed until you get back into bed. Three videos give you the scoop - including one from Bob Greene - the info and the pedometer will keep you motivated to move and create the willingness to move more. I find I am always trying to 'beat' a previous best!

No set or calibration of stride length required, just strap on the Smart Health Walking FIT and head out the door, and you'll be instantly gathering data, your steps, calories burned, distance covered all the while, monitoring your heart rate. This is a really good feature, the heart rate monitor, if you looking to increase your fitness or lose weight, you need to exercise to a certain level. So once you know where the zone is you need to maintain, it is as easy as a look at a watch to ensure you are still on track. Be aware the pedometer is on your wrist, if you walk without swinging your arms... get a different pedometer!
