iBike Dash - Fitness Gadgets for Wireless Workouts
Fitness Gadgets Help You Work Out
Wirelessly
Professional athletes have first-rate trainers, sports doctors and all kinds
of fancy equipment. For the rest of us, there are a wide range of electronic
devices that can help monitor and improve performance, whatever your
favorite sport. Some even work with your smartphone. Here's a list.
iBike Dash Cycling Computer for iPhone
and iPod Touch: $199
For those who prefer biking to running, the iBike is a lightweight wireless
bicycle computer system that turns your iPhone or iPod Touch into your own
personal fitness trainer.
It attaches like a dashboard to your handlebars. All the nuts and bolts are
included.
The case houses the circuitry, keeps out water and absorbs shock. You can
easily move it from bike to bike.
Download the free iBike app from the iTunes App Store and personalize your
goals.
The iBike will tell you when your cycling effort is optimal for burning fat,
how many calories you're using during the ride, what speed and distance
you're traveling, and even where you are on your bike route. It can help you
set personal fitness goals, measure your progress and allow you to adjust
your performance as you enjoy your ride.
It allows seamless hands-free calls using your iPhone and Bluetooth headset
with no interruption of ride data collection. And it has a touch screen you
can use even while wearing cycling gloves.
