If you are looking for a solution to exercise at home and easily fulfill your goals of losing weight and taking care of your health in 2022, you are in luck. Exercise technology has seen something of a boom in recent years, and the devices on the market today are simply incredible. No matter what type of exercise routine you prefer, it is almost a fact that there is some device that will allow you to do it in the comfort of your home. In this article, we include some of our favorite exercise devices.
This is basically a full-length mirror enhanced with smart software that shows you workouts, connects you with live instructors, and even allows you to compete with other people in your classes. The best part, though, is that Mirror workouts typically don’t require any equipment (although you can use things like dumbbells and resistance bands if you want), so the whole system only takes up a short space on your wall. It’s a great option if you don’t have the space for a Peloton bike, but still want the benefits of classes and live instruction.
The Tempo system is very similar to the Mirror mentioned above, but instead of using human instructors to guide you through training routines, Tempo uses sensor weights and a proprietary machine vision system that watches you and provides feedback in real time. The entire Tempo Studio system has its own screen and speakers, but if you’re on a tighter budget, Tempo Move offers the same workouts using your smartphone as a tracker and your TV as a screen. The truth is that this is one of the best investments when talking about smart fitness, especially if you plan to do it in your living room.
If you like the idea of having a full home gym but don’t have the space, Tonal might be exactly what you are looking for. Thanks to its clever “digital weights” and adjustable arms, Tonal can offer up to 200 pounds of resistance for a wide variety of different exercises. Better yet, digital weights can also be tailored mid-workout to make things easier (or harder) for you, ensuring you’ll get the most out of every session.
There are many, many different fitness monitors on the market, and this is arguably one of the best. “The Fitbit Charge 5 is an incredible activity tracker that elevates everything that Fitbit monitors do well,” says Yoona Wagener, Digital Trends’ wearable technology reviewer. “Its compact and modern design makes it an ultra-portable 24/7 accessory; But beyond its streamlined, modern look, it’s packed with wellness features and data that you can dive into with the Fitbit app.
There are a handful of smart rowing machines on the market today, but while most simply offer live Peloton-style classes, Aviron takes things in a fun new direction with exercise-based games. Instead of simply paddling alongside a few virtual buddies and receiving words of encouragement from an instructor, you’ll use the device to move your virtual avatar through a variety of different minigames and challenges. Best of all, you can choose whether you want to do this socially and play with other people, or just paddle out on your own and play against the computer.
This list would not be complete if we did not include the revolutionary Peloton Bike. This is THE smart exercise bike – shortly after its debut, the way fitness works at home changed radically. Peloton’s virtual classes allow you to access instructor-led, live training sessions from the comfort of your home, a formula that has been copied by virtually every other fitness company. You are not just buying an exercise bike – you are gaining access to a great community that will help keep you motivated and engaged, and that is something you cannot get with a normal exercise bike.
There are millions of workout headphones, but these stand out for a number of reasons. First of all, they use bone conduction technology to produce sound, so you can use them without having to cover your ears, which will improve your safety if you are, for example, a runner or cyclist who needs to be aware of their surroundings. Second, the headphones are a single piece that wraps comfortably around the head and ears, so there is virtually zero chance of them falling off during training or getting lost. In other words, these headphones offer the ideal combination of safety, security and sound quality.
