CES: More Fitness Gadgets

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets — Laura Moncur @ 5:00 am

There were so many fitness gadgets at CES that it has taken us this long to write all the reviews on Starling Fitness. You can check out what you missed here:

Starling Fitness » CES: Garmin GPS and Heart Rate Monitor: You can see the Garmin Forerunner 305 here compared to the Nike Imara. It’s a GPS unit and heart rate monitor that is supposed to work in “urban canyons.” Check out this review to see if it worked on the convention floor.

Starling Fitness » CES: TacX and Intel: This bicycle trainer connects to your PC and allows you to ride the famous bicycle courses of the world with real video of the roads. Check out this review to see how many miles I was able to go on the Tour de France Alps course.

Starling Fitness » CES: Tacx Videos for Your Bike Trainer: If you don’t want to connect your bicycle to your PC, you can just watch these videos while you train on your stationary bike.

Starling Fitness » CES: NavMan: This is another GPS unit that tracks your speed, distance and pace. Check out this review to find out what the NavMan booth was like.

Starling Fitness » CES: Journey to the Wild Divine: Meditation software to lower your heart rate instead of raise it. Was I able to make the pinwheel spin on the noisy convention floor? Read this review to see.

Biometric Sensors

Starling Fitness » CES: FitCentric: PC software in conjunction with Intel that runs your treadmill. You can compete with other runners online. See this review to see if your treadmill will work with this software.

Going to CES was so inspiring. I can see the world of “Exergaming” growing every year. I can’t wait to see what they will come up with next year to keep my heart rate in the high intensity zone.
