I believe that a playlist filled with driving beats is an essential for getting my heart rate up, and that is why I love the
BodiBeat from
Yamaha.
This cutting edge fitness gadget is a combo music player and heart rate monitor that also synchronizes the songs to the pace of your workout. It helps you run to the beat by changing songs as you speed up.

They say it is better to give than to receive, and I agree. The four winners of the
$250 Althleta gift cards were all so happy when they found out they won that they made my day.
One winner even exclaimed that she was using her gift card to buy a "goal" outfit.

I am a firm believer in the fact that cute gear can inspire great workouts, and who couldn't use a mid-Summer pick-me-up? I am loving
Athleta swimwear, as well as the label's tennis dresses and gym gear. A new bikini and a sporty dress could definitely inspire some last minute Summer fun!

It is summertime and the swimming is easy for lucky Sugar user
brookerene. She won the
waterproof sound system and now she can listen to tunes while she swims.
Report back and tell us what music you enjoy under the water!

If you haven't taken this quiz to enter the contest, take it now to enter to wine a waterproof sound system.
Missing your motivating tunes while working out in water? Me too.

I have to say I love giving away great prizes and as one winner said "Nike is awesome!" And I must say I agree.
There were five lucky winners of the
Nike gift card giveaway and I would love for you all to help me congratulate this handful of winners.

Looking for a new fitness gadget to keep you motivated during your workouts?
This super cool
NuMetrex Heart Monitoring System ($99) — which includes a watch, transmitter, and sports bra — should do the trick. The coolest thing about the system is that the sports bra features textile heart monitoring sensors that are knit directly into the fabric.

I am pleased to introduce the latest member of the FitSugar winner's circle. Lucky Sugar user
stefalpha won $1,000 to get
beach-body ready. Her response upon learning she won was a stunned "wow!"

Nike's now iconic tag line "Just do it" seems like an inspirational coach distilled into a three word phrase, but Nike wants to give you even more coaching support.
