Wearable Technology

In 2015, the number one New Years resolution in Canada, as tracked by Twitter, was “get in shape,” and based on the massive increase in patrons at my gym over the past two weeks, I’m pretty confident that it’s at the top of the list again for 2016. If you too have resolved to get in shape this year and want to make sure you stick to that resolution, a wearable fitness tracker might just give you the edge you need.

Fitness trackers are a great tool for anyone interested in getting the most out of their workout or just adopting some healthy new habits. I’ve tested out a lot of wearable technology and used quite a few different fitness trackers, and although they all have different features that will appeal to a different type of user, the common thread I found with all of them is how incredibly motivating they are. Fitness trackers make great gifts for the holidays too, so if you’d like to choose one for yourself or pick one up to put under the tree this year, here’s a few types you can choose from.
