Purchase Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer

Bottom Line, this is a great tool for people trying to get the most out of a pedometer. Because it can be carried in a variety of ways, it makes it easy to keep on you all day long. When I get up in the morning, I put it in the pocket of my sweats-I don't even clip it on, so there's no risk of dropping it. During the day, I'm a suit & tie guy in a highly competitive environment where I don't really want people to know that I'm working hard to lose weight, and I've found that it fits right in the odd little pocket inside the larger pocket in my slacks-so I don't have to avertise that I'm using it. The instruction manual was easy to follow and does a good job of showing you how to measure your stride length (an area that other pedometers are really, really bad at) and the other set-up instructions are clear and concise. The HJ-112 also has a nice form factor and feels very comfortable in my pocket, and has an easy to read display and simple navigation buttons. I use it in conjunction with a GPS in some cases (mostly because I'm on a pretty strict exercise regimen and I need something to entertain me-so using & comparing different tools keeps my head in the game), and I've found that the mileage count on the pedometer is fairly accurate once I got a few kinks worked out with my stride length (my fault, not the HJ-112's). The absolute best feature is the fact that it doesn't start counting steps until you've been walking around for a couple of seconds, so you don't get false step readings when you're wiggling around in a chair or a couch-but it does give you the steps once it figures out that you're actually walking; even the vibrations in a car don't click the step count-so I know that the steps shown are really steps, not just movement. This is a great all day tool-I find that I look at it, say to myself "hey, I've got fewer steps today than yesterday, so maybe it's time to walk to the bathroom on the 4th floor..." Highly, highly recommended-if it's the price stopping you, the Omron more than makes up for it by lasting longer than cheap clip-ons and you'll get significantly more accurate results. In addition, because you can put it in a pocket or purse, I'm betting that you'll actually use it a heck of a lot more. So would you rather buy a $6 pedometer that breaks and/or lives in a drawer??Get more detail about Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer.
