Fitness Trackers/Smart Watches: While watches were once a thing of the past with the arrival of cell phones, these days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in the gym without a watch that wasn’t just telling time, but monitoring heart rate, steps, calories burned, mileage, etc.
Fitbit Versa – The Versa is a smart watch that has a lot of the features of the Apple Watch without the price tag. It has a 4-day battery life, heart rate monitor, music player, sleep tracker and altimeter. Plus, it’s water resistant up to 50 meters, has a color screen and replaceable band and is compatible with Android, iOS and Windows
Garmin Vivosmart 4 – Is a great fitness tracker for those just starting out. With a 7-day battery life, it not only tracks heart rate and sleep quality, but also stress. The genius behind this is to let you know when your body is ready for a workout compared to when it needs rest and relaxation.

Water Bottles – Nearly 80% of American say they aren’t drinking enough water daily. Based on your weight and activity level, we should be drinking ½ oz to an ounce of water per pound you weigh per day. It seems like an impossible task, but these water bottles will help you get there.
Pryme Vessyl – This high-end, smart water bottle is the reminder you need to get your daily water intake. It can calculate the amount of water you need based on your age, height, weight, activity levels, sleep and sex and tracks how much you drink through the day with a blue light that climbs until you reach your prime amount. You can also take advantage of the app features by syncing it to your fitness tracker or smart watch.
