There are many of us out there who want to get in shape and while we do hit the gym, we’re sure there are many who are clueless as to what we need to do. Sure we can run on the treadmill, use the rowing machine, hop on the bike, but what about other activities? A personal trainer is a great way to go about learning the right moves and right exercises, but they can be pretty expensive which is where the Gymwatch comes in.
Unlike most wearable devices like smartwatches, the Gymwatch will offer more than just your typical biometrics sensors like a pedometer, heart rate sensor, and so on. According to the description, the Gymwatch is “basically a personal trainer shrunk to the size of a watch.”
The Gymwatch will come with a bevy of your usual sensors and in Free-Mode, it will be able to collect and measure data so that you can track your own progress. However if you wanted a little guidance, Guide-Mode comes into play and will link up with an app on your smartphone in which the app will not only help keep count during your exercises, it will also be able to tell you if you’re doing the exercise wrongly based on the measures of your movement.
Of course we can’t speak as to how effective the personal training mode will be, since there’s really no substitute to an actual personal trainer with years of experience, but if you don’t want to fork out for a personal trainer, perhaps the Gymwatch could prove itself to be a viable alternative. If you’d like to learn more or pledge a donation, hit up its Indiegogo page for the details.

One of the things that smartwatch makers are doing is that they’re trying to replicate the same size and comfort that normal watches offer, with the difference being that these watches are a lot more interactive and will do more than just tell the time. That’s one way of going about it, but what about those who’d rather a much bigger display?
Want to be able to charge your phone wherever you go? If that prospect sounds appealing to you but you don’t want to have to lug around a huge external battery pack, you might be interested in the LithiumCard. The charger was originally an 
TinkerBots is a modular robotics building set with the aim of encouraging children to learn about electronics through play. The Berlin-based makers behind the project are seeking to raise $100,000 over the next 46 days via the Indiegogo crowdfunding platform to get their kits to market. 
Last week, a small crowdfunded project called the Healbe GoBe made news, as backers and journalists questioned the company’s claims that it could measure caloric intake using a wearable device. While the claims do sound wild at best, the company is sticking to its story — and Indiegogo is sticking by the project. 
Showering is great, I’m a big fan. But drying off? Laaaaammmmmeeee. All that towelling, it’s enough to make you need another shower, am I right? New York-based startup The Body Dryer realizes this, and they’ve created a device to help you skip the towel and get dry a better way. The Body Dryer dries you from the ground up, using a device that resembles a bathroom scale but that… 
Whenever you get out of the shower or the pool, you’d have to dry yourself off and the primary method of doing that would be to use a towel, unless you’re really lazy and just let yourself dry off naturally. Now drying yourself off is not a big deal and it doesn’t take up too much time, but apparently someone has come up with a way to make the drying process even faster.
