Other Workout Accessories
This is very broad category which includes practically anything that can be used for working out at home, or anywhere else.
Various rowing, running, lifting etc. accessories can make working out in home gyms, outdoors, on treadmills, ellipticals, rowers etc. much beneficial and more interesting, but they can also distract a trainee and hamper proper workouts.
It is nice to have a heart rate monitor strapped around your chest when working out, especially if you have heart related issues, but to have a bunch of wires connected to the body while walking and/or running, can be counterproductive and can lead to injuries.
Technology is a fine thing as long as it serves us, not vice versa.
Enjoy! :)
