An advanced technology pedometer that can be carried in your pocket, bag or be attached tThe Omron HJ-112 Pocket Pedometer is an advanced, high-tech pedometer that–thanks to unique dual sensor technology–can be carried in your pocket or bag. Now you can just drop your pedometer in your purse to find out how much exercise you get in a typical day of work, errands, and other tasks. Of course, you can also attach it to your belt like a traditional pedometer.
A large, easy-to-read display helps you keep tabs on your workout. View larger. |
The HJ-112 accurately measures your steps, as well as aerobic steps and minutes. You can also use it to measure calories burned during your workout, as well as the distance you’ve traveled.
The device’s large, easy-to-read LCD display can separately display aerobic steps and minutes walked more than 10 minutes continuously, so you always have the information you need right in front of you. Meanwhile, a seven day history lets you review a full week of exercise. The device also resets at midnight automatically so it’s ready to go every morning. Of course, the device can also function as a handy and highly accurate clock. It also comes with a detachable belt holder and security strap so it’s always close at hand.
The HJ-112 is powered by a replaceable lithium battery (CR2032) that will last six months when used for walking 10,000 steps a day. The device measures approximately 2.8 x 2.1 x .6 inches (H x W x D) and weighs 1.1 ounces (not including battery).

Answer by Igobeg O
sparkpeople is good. the only thing is, it gets boring after a while and then you eventually just stop going there. but, if you stick to sparkpeople and do everything they tell you to do, you will lose weight.
Give your answer to this question below!
how do you call this workout?
I’ve only done this for a week and I can already tell a difference. This is unbelievable and I’m doing it twice a day now. There needs to be a part II!! Thanks so much for posting this for everyone to use!
When I first start to do this exercise, it was a bit hard to Not stop during the video. But now I enjoy it
.
I just realized that SparkPeople has a youtube account, and … well, of course, I had to try a few. I just did the 10 Minute Kickboxing Cardio, the 10 Minute Hips & Thighs work-out, and now this, and wow … that was pretty intense. I’m looking forward to using these videos! Especially in the winter when I can’t run, haha.
Thank you!
