For your own personal workout planner: Fitbit Versa Smartwatch with Heart Rate Monitor

If you need the gadget to keep an eye on how many calories you’ve burned, how many steps you’ve taken, as well as your heart rate and sleeping patterns, look no further than the Fitbit Versa Smartwatch. To view your workouts on-the-go, all you need to do is look down at your Versa’s screen. You can also sync it to your smartphone for notifications, so you’re not constantly picking up your phone and getting distracted mid-workout. (Don’t be that person).

Did you know you can also use your Fitbit to track your sleeping patterns and get helpful insights to help yourself sleep better and recover faster from your workouts? Try it next time!

For the moment of truth: Nokia Body Cardio Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Smart Scale & Body Analyzer

We need to remember that weight is just a number — and the Nokia Body Cardio smart scale will help with that, giving you a full picture of your health (such as your body fat percentage and information about your body composition) every time you step on it.

You can seamlessly track your information in the Nokia Health Mate mobile app, so you can keep track of your progress anytime, anywhere.

For the perfect morning meal-prep: Ninja Professional 2.1L 1100-Watt Stand Blender with Nutri Ninja Cups
