The Find: wearable tech devices for achieving any fitness goal

Remember your overly ambitious New Year’s resolution to hit the gym every day for a year? Chances are it didn’t happen. Thankfully, there’s a better way to reach those healthy lifestyle goals: Torontonians are starting to rely more on wearable fitness devices to tangibly track daily movement, monitor heart rate, count calories and even receive personalized workout programs. We’ve rounded up a few of the best products—think Fitibt, Misfit and more—for keeping an eye on your progress. (After all, it’s a lot harder to ignore an unhealthy lifestyle when the stats are thrown in your face every day.) The best part? Sleek new designs mean you won’t have to wear cumbersome chest straps or tote around an unusually large watch. Most of these gadgets are up for grabs at TELUS stores, where a dedicated team of “Health Tech Trainers” can help technologically challenged shoppers decipher RPMs from BMIs.
