What technologies you want for the gym!

So you walk in to the gym, and you see someone with a cool pair of headphones, a cool little gadget in their hands looks like a hardcore timer. What are all of these cool things? I'm about to tell you what it is these people have. What fun things YOU should have for the gym that will make your gym experience ten times better!


Headphones- Headphones are actually pretty important I think. They make the difference between hearing your favorite song and saying "where's the bass" vs. hearing your favorite song and saying "this bass is sick!". Now don't get me wrong, some people don't care about this stuff BUT the music you listen to and how it sounds DOES trigger your brain. I believe that a good pair of headphones are pretty important, at least to me anyways. When I'm in the gym I want to be IN THE GYM not hearing anything else, not thinking about anything, just having some good music going. Even if you like to listening to a radio talk show or something you want headphones that are going to cancel out all of the other noise around you right? Here are some good ones I've picked to show you guys:

  • Beats By Dre $199.99
  • Audio-Technica ATH-M50 $119.16-159.00
  • Bose Quiet Comfort 15 $259.95-299.99
  • MEElectronics A151 $59.99-62.18
  • Monster iSport $59.99-179.99

Ipod- I think that Ipods are very important, as this generation's CD player they play a vital role in the gym. Now you can do so many things with your Ipod, listen to music, listen to the radio, take pictures, go online, go on your fitness apps like recording your workouts, your calorie monitor, ext. Here are some different Ipods to check out
  • IPod Touch $299.99-399.99
  • IPod Shuffle $49.99
  • IPod Nano $149.00
  • IPod Classic $249.00

Stop Watches/Timers-  Very Important if your doing some type of circuit training or super setting. They have ones where you can just put it around your neck like a necklace, which is very convenient. 

  • Gym Boss $19.95
  • Kwik Goal Universal Stop Watch $16.99

Smart Phone- YES BELIEVE IT OR NOT I feel that a smart phone is important for the gym. You can literally do anything on it. You can time your workouts, you can get apps for your heart rate, your calories burn, listen to music, even an app for different exercises. There is one app called jefit and its awesome it has all the different types of exercises and it has animated animation of how to do it when you click on the app.

  • IPhone $100.00-200.00
  • Droid $Price Varies
