It
seems that there has been a trend lately of fitness devices and apps.
These technologies are meant to make it easier for health conscience
individuals to keep track of their workouts. For instance, the Fitbit
keeps track of the user’s steps. These
devices usually set a goal for the wearer in addition to tracking the wearer’s
progress.
However,
it is ultimately up to the wearer to actually make process. This is why
I wouldn’t find these devices particularly useful. I have always been
under the ideology that if I am not motivated to do something under my
own will, I am never going to make progress in that something. I’m not
saying that creating a motivation for oneself won’t work for
everyone, but I would much rather look up the information that I need to
get the most of my exercise ahead of time and then just do it. My motivation is that I enjoy doing it because it makes me feel and look better.
What do you think? Do you find devices and apps useful for keeping track of your exercise progress? Sound off in the comments.
