If you want to spend much money but want a heart rate monitor your heart rate in addition to measure the speed at which you move, this is the best option. The Oregon SE300 lacks GPS sensor or foot, but an accelerometer in the chest band quite clear that sets the pace of your career.

Given that a GPS module or foot sensor typically cost more than € 70, pay 120 € for the Oregon SE300 is a pretty good option. Can be used only to race, since the sensor is designed to detect strides.

It also has an alarm quite useful in my opinion, the vibrating alarm when you pass a range of keystrokes. This is utli if you bring an mp3 and you can not hear the alarm sound or if you want your training compis know what speed you go.

It has a memory of 66 laps and informs us what percentage of the calories you burn fat based, something interesting for those who train to lose weight. In short, very cheap but a heart rate monitor with basic features and the addition of the velocity meter.

Fast food intake and food consumption in large numbers, associated with progressive weight gain, therefore, a new food scale, portable speakers, has been developed to replace this trigger obesity.

This device is called a Mandometer and scale that help to lose weight by controlling what we eat and the rate at which ingested food.

A test with obese children showed that the scale weight loss and eating your portion sizes small.

Mandometer scale called, was founded in Stockholm, and let the kids for 11% dimisnuir level where they eat, so not only good for fat people, but also for individuals with bulimia, who eat lots of fast food.

Scale measures the rate at which the food disappeared from the plate and if the individual eats too fast, Mandometer will tell.

These are useful ideas that might be taught to eat, and listen to the body when it says that is enough food. Mandometer According to the test, positive results will be retained even after 6 months of testing the device.

Although not yet known when we can purchase one of these or the price, we may have to pay a lot for this small device that can be replaced with a willingness and common household appliances, such as a simple clock that takes time for food.

For now, this smart scale is used as part of Mandometer treatment in the United States and Australia, but I do not think that delays in the market for a wider audience
