As
gyms around America tentatively reopen, folks are raring to get back to their regimens.
Maybe you discovered you adore the convenience of home fitness during the
shutdown, but you want to build out your own personal gym.
The
12 gadgets below deserve kudos for innovation. It doesn’t matter if you only
have a modest budget or you still have your stimulus check burning a hole in
your pocket. An investment in your health always makes sound financial
sense.
1. VUP Running Armband
It’s challenging to power through five miles with no entertainment outside of the rhythm of your increasingly tired feet. Take your tunes with you when you hit the road or the trail with the VUP running armband. It securely holds your phone, keeps your extra headphone cords tucked away and lets you carry a key while keeping your hands empty.
2. KOR Nava Filter
Water Bottle
You know you need to drink more water, but the stuff pouring out of your tap can taste a bit off depending on where you live. Yes, you can buy bottled water at the store, but doing so takes a toll on your conscience. All that plastic tends to end up polluting the oceans. This reusable one is made from coconuts, and its BPA free.

3. Powerball Powerspin
Isometric Arm Toner
If you want to tone your upper body while you watch TV, this gadget is for you. It uses isometric resistance, so you don’t even need to count repetitions or sets. The steady pressure also makes it a more comfortable way to tone for those with rheumatoid arthritis or other conditions that make movement painful.
4. Tangram Smart Rope
Jumping rope is a fabulous full-body workout that lets you get your cardio while you watch TV — if you have a large enough living room. This innovative product features an adjustable length. The affordable Rookie model measures jump count, calories burned and workout duration. It stores data to help you to celebrate when you reach your goals.
5. Backslash FitSmart Mat
You love doing yoga, but those free mats your favorite studio provides were icky before the coronavirus made everyone more germ-o-phobic. Why not invest in one that rolls up with a snap for convenient carrying?
6. FitBit Charge
3
If you want to track multiple aspects of your fitness journey, the FitBit Charge 3 fits the bill.
7. Withings WiFi Smart
Scale
Body-fat
scales have existed forever, but this model monitors fat, bone and muscle mass,
as well as hydration levels. It tracks the progress of up to eight users.
8. JayBird Wireless
Sports Headphones
You
should hear these jaybirds sing. They will make any run more delightful — with
no pesky wires to throw off your pace.
9. Emfit QS+Active
Sleep Monitor
It’s
challenging to get fit when you toss and turn at night. The first step in
getting more rest is identifying the patterns keeping you awake, and this
gadget can help you do it.
It
also monitors your heart, making it a must for those with cardiovascular
issues.
10. NURVV Run Personal
Trainer
If
you are a runner, you want to know why you don’t always lead the pack. These
innovative insoles analyze your stride as you pound the pavement, and offer
suggestions for improving form and speed.
11. Mirror At-Home
Personal Trainer
When
you need a personal trainer, but you can’t get to the gym, enter Mirror. You
can get pointers on your form as well as personalized programs and
encouragement.
12. Ergatta Digital Rower
Rowing
is an ideal cardiovascular workout for those who find walking or even biking
problematic due to knee trouble. This device looks bulky, but it folds up and
looks stylish tucked in the corner of your room.
