Technology has reshaped the Fitness Industry

Staying fit and healthy is a priority for most of us. However, a life
filled with work, family, and friends can make it really difficult. We
live in a world where stress is rife, and we're pushed into
unhealthy habits such as too much sitting and eating things that
aren't necessarily good for us. We love gadgets of every kind, be
it appliances for the kitchen or electronic ones for hiking or

camping trips.
The developments in the tech world have seen the introduction of
devices that can be used in your fitness program. One good
example is the fitness watch which can help you keep track of
different things like the calories burned on a specific day. Another
fitness device is the step counter which helps count the number
of steps taken on a particular date.
 Incorporating the different tech devices in your fitness programs can
be beneficial in several ways which include:
‐ Fitness gadgets and wearable's allow you to track your progress and
to compare it with your goals. It encourages you to do more activities
such as walking more steps, running faster, or sustaining a heartbeat.
‐ A tracker will let you log your food intake as well as your water intake.
You can enter your water intake per day, food choices and then
calculate the quality of your diet plan to make better choices each day.
‐ Most of the fitness gadgets and wearables lack annoying cords
and are hands-free giving you a hassle-free experience and
better tracking, both during fitness and sleep.

‐ Wearable's are only getting more accurate and have started to

measure more things, thus, helping to minimize over-training and
risk of any injury.
These gadgets may be able to help you make the best of your
workout sessions, track your health progress and have fun at the
same time. All that aside, they are all built for a mind focused
on health and fitness, which is top priority to come out the
winner in a dog-eat-dog world.
While lots of fitness aids come in the form of apps there is also a
lot of hardware that can help get you off the couch or making
healthier choices. When it comes to being in optimum health
there are no shortcuts and no measures too big that they are not
worth taking. Luckily, these options are fun and easy!
‐ In addition to technological advances, there is also a shift toward
consumer awareness. Gym-goers are no longer content with
simple information such as their weight. What they are curious to
know more about is their progress, from body fat percentage to
sleep quality.
‐ Technology, through the gadgets you have, equips you with an
alarm that reminds that you should be doing this and that for your
workout. Technology nowadays can also set the mood and the
drive for people to begin with their fitness plans, especially
because taking the first step is undeniably the hardest part of the
whole process.
