Gift Guide - Tech for Fitness Lovers

This time of year everyone seems to be thinking of the holidays, but January is right around the corner, and with it, New Years Resolutions. This week we're looking at gadgets for athletes and fitness buffs. 

Finis Neptune


Music can be a huge part of any workout, and now thanks to this gadget and others like it, swimmers can have music to pump them up for an extra lap as well. This gadget attaches to your swim goggles and plays music through bone conduction audio. It sounds odd, but this technology is used in everything from lollipops to toothbrushes. Bone conduction audio removes the need for earbuds and cables. It also makes for clearer music when underwater.

One of the biggest part of keeping fit is watching what you eat, but for most of us that's easier said than done. For those really committed to portion control, the HAPIfork is here to help. The HAPIfork has built in sensors that can tell you how fast you are eating and how many bits you've taken. The fork will even vibrate to alert you if you're going over your preset limits.
