Americans gain an average of seven pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years, so to keep those extra pounds at bay, get plenty of exercise and keep track of your progress using Omron Healthcare's Pocket Pedometer. It features an LCD screen and is capable of measuring your steps, aerobic movement, calories, and distance.
The unit displays the total number of aerobic steps per day; to qualify as aerobic steps there need to be more than 60 steps per minute for more than 10 minutes continuously. You can rest for one minute, and the unit will still count that as continuous movement.
Many pedometers require the user to wear it on their wrist or belt buckle, but the Pocket Pedometer can be thrown in a bag or purse, and it's still capable of recording data.
To keep track of your aerobic abilities, install the included Omron Health Management Software on your computer, connect the pedometer using the included USB cable, and you can view your progress for the previous 41 days.
I tested the Pocket Pedometer, and liked being able to just throw it in my purse and not think about it. The software was very beneficial, because I was able to view and print out my data in graphs and charts by day, week, month, year, and total.
The Omron Pocket Pedometer is available on Amazon.com for $32.95.
