Top 10 High-Tech Fit Kits

1 Optimise Your Run

For many, listening to music is fundamental to enjoying – or simply getting through – a run, making headphones an important accessory. How about a pair that not only delivers voice coaching to improve your pace, but that will also analyse your stats to optimise run stance and help prevent injury? That’s just what Soul Electronics have created. Their new Run Free Pro Bio Headphones monitors the angle of your head while tracking your gait, cadence, step width, symmetry, shock absorption and vertical oscillations of each leg. This is all the more impressive given that the headphones are relatively discreet, comfortable and wireless. The guidance is based on real-time data from your run and the coach will acknowledge when you make an appropriate correction. Small changes, like not landing heavily, can make a big difference in preventing unnecessary stress on the joints, reducing your risk of injury. Post-run, your stats are transmitted to the Soul Fit App so you can keep note of your form and stance as well as route, distance and time.
