fitness equipment, workoutNow that the weather is cooling down, I'm going to start walking and hiking again, and over the summer, decided I wanted to get some fitness equipment that would help me measure just how fast and how far I'm going. I found this Accu Measure Pulse Monitor Pedometer 355 online today and I promptly ordered it. It's perfect for my workouts and hikes. This one is worn on the waist and will help motivate me to keep increasing my fitness level by being able to measure critical aspects of my walking, jogging, or hiking, like my pulse rate and distance.

Having fitness equipment can be really helpful for most of us to get out and exercise. This is an inexpensive piece of fitness equipment that I will chart using spreadsheet software so I can have measurable results of the effort I put into the workouts. Being able to see the difference in my performance over time is just the thing I need to keep me going.

I will combine the data this pedometer gives me along with my weight loss or gain. Calling my walks, jogs, or hikes a workout is just a phrase. I love going out to exercise, primarily on foot. The scenery just a few miles from my home is awe inspiring and I get so much out of being out in the wild. When I get back home, I feel completely renewed on a physical and emotional level. I have yet to come back worse off than when I started.

I found this pedometer at a fun website that has lots of fitness equipment and weight loss products. The name of it is Zuppa's Store located at http://www.healthytudes.com. They sell lots of their products at discounts, and I know that I paid much less for this online than I would at a retail store where I live. Nothing is worth more than good health and since hiking is essentially free, I thought this piece of fitness equipment was a good investment on so many levels.

When we go on family hikes, I'll bring this along and I know the kids will be surprised at how far and fast we've gone. This pedometer also comes with a clock, so it'll be easy to figure out what our pace is, too. We'll also be able to know when to turn back so we're not hiking in the dark. We live in a mountainous area and unlike flatlanders, lose our sun fast once it goes behind a mountain. All in all, I'm pleased I found this pedometer and look forward to tracking and honing my performance.
