For those of you interested in taking your workout tunes to the next level, you will love what Yamaha has done for you with the BODiBEAT. This device prides itself on being the first and only music player that will select music and tunes to match the pace of your workout. If you are rocking it on the treadmill, the BODiBEAT will match your pace. And likewise if you are enjoying some quiet stretches and downtime. The gadget synchronizes your music selections automatically to the step of your walk or run. The BODiBEat comes with the BODiBEAT station, a software program that categorizes your music according to beats per minute, and a small heart rate monitor will be clipped to your ear. The point of the system is to maximize fitness by inspiring you with tunes with a beat that will get your blood pumping even stronger than you start out with. The system will track your metrics during your workout, such as distance, heart rate, time, and pace, and includes an armband ergonomically designed for comfort during your workout. You’ll also find 512 megabytes of free internal flash memory, offering you as much as 12 playback hours when the device is fully charged. The four modes you can work out in are Free, Fitness, Training, and Music.
Free mode will match your music to your pace, and Fitness mode includes the Walk and Jog fitness that works in conjunction with your heart rate. The Training mode on the other hand may be the one you least like the most, as it acts as a personal trainer telling you to speed up or slow down for ideal results. Music mode will be a little nicer to you, letting you play your music as you see fit, not how it feels you should be. For those that need a little extra push to their workout, this may just be the thing, and you can pick it up for about $300 bucks.
