Choosing The Right Pedometer
by Ron Packardy
The HJ 112 pedometer from Omron is one of the best
pedometers available today. It strikes an impressive balance
between features, price, and usability, resulting in a
pedometer that's suitable for everyone, enthusiasts and
occasional users alike.
I don't know how it manages it, but this pedometer somehow
keeps an accurate record of your steps, distance and
calories, even though you keep it in your pocket! The manual
mentions something about dual sensor technology, but that's
a bit technical for me.
I like this pedometer because it has such an easily readable
display with easy to use buttons, which is a surprise on
something so compact. If you'd rather carry it on your belt,
there's a detachable holder and strong security strap.
It's supposed to last up to 6 months using the replaceable
lithium battery, which with an average of 10,000 steps per
day works out as a lot of walking!
I must admit I found this to be a brilliant pedometer. I did
look at other models, but when I compared the price,
features and ease of use, I personally thought this one came
out the winner. The HJ 112 and the HJ 720ITC are both new
type pedometers that you can keep in your pocket, and to be
honest the only reason I picked the HJ 112 was because I
didn't have any need for the software that comes with the
720 ITC.
In case you are wondering, yes, this pedometer can be used
for jogging. In fact I use it for jogging now, although I
never intended to when I bought it. It's surprising how much
fitter you get after a few weeks of regular exercise!
I have a little circuit that I take, but after a month or
two I started jogging for small distances and then walking
again, but now I jog for almost the whole time. I'm pretty
sure I wouldn't have done that without the HJ 112.
So, if you need a good pedometer that won't let you down in
a hurry, then the HJ 112 is probably as good a choice as
any, especially if you don't need all the extra software and
stuff.
Don't worry if the pedometer is not for you, it's still a
great idea for a gift. It's very easy to use and has all you
need to keep accurate track of your activity.
Not only that, in addition to it being a pretty cool gadget
it's also a very practical gift that will help keep them
healthy and fit. I think that's a great way of showing
someone you really care about them. - 15668
