<p>Technology is increasingly becoming indispensable in the area of fitness. Various gadgets are now used to calculate movements or activities of a user, like walking, cycling, swimming, to estimate the number of calories that are being burnt. <br /><br />All fitness trackers require an app in order to connect to a smartphone device. The smart phones act as indicators. Many new trackers now can track fitness-related metrics such as distance walked or run, calorie consumption, and in some cases heartbeat and quality of sleep.<br /><br />Anish K, a gym trainer and fitness advisor, is vocal about his appreciation for wearable technology. He says, “The watches that are used are not just very technically impressive but are also a source of motivation to keep yourself fit. The fact that you measure your activities helps you know how fit you are. I insist that clients who train with me have this watch.”<br /><br />If cycling is your passion, there are gadgets that help you keep a dedicated record of your rides. <br /><br />These gadgets can fit on your cycle’s handlebars and have built-in GPS connectivity, which only adds to the charm.<br /><br />Desh Muthanna, an avid cyclist, does not venture out without his watch. He says, “I cycle for long distances almost every Sunday and it’s quite fun to know the distance I have covered. These gadgets helps me to be accurate in that aspect. They also guide me on the right track when I seem <br />to be lost. Apart from being a true motivation to maintain at least a certain level of activity, they look cool too.“<br /><br />As technology has become smaller and smarter, wearing it has become a matter of pride for the fitness freaks. Whether it's smartwatches, fitness trackers or even apparel that has in-built tracking, it all seem to be a boon for those who don’t mind spending a few thousands to live a healthy life.</p>
