SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player – High Quality Underwater MP3 Sound Lets You Jam While Swimming Laps

Swimming laps works your whole body. Swimming laps improves cardiovascular conditioning. Swimming laps burns a lot of calories without putting strain on your joints… Swimming laps is boring. As a former competitive swimmer who specialized in long distance races, I can relate to how boring doing lap after lap can be. Swim, swim, swim… turn. Swim, swim, swim… turn. Swimming lap after lap can be painfully boring… unless you have the SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player.

The SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player is unlike any other underwater MP3 player. Sure, Apple makes a waterproof kit for iPod, but what if that kit fails? Do really want to make the safety of your iPod the responsibility of that little kit? The SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player is designed for use while you swim laps. The SwiMP3 attaches to your goggle strap on both sides in front of your ears, giving you easy access to the volume and track selection controls. It’s light enough so that your hardly notice it is there, and the sleek design prevents the underwater MP3 player from creating drag while you swim.

All that waterproof MP3 mumbo jumbo is impressive, but what about sound quality? Waterproof headphones usually create low quality sound that can be garbled by the water. The SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player however, uses innovative bone conduction technology, which is already in use by the military, to create crystal-clear, high quality sound as you workout. Rather than using waterproof headphones, the SwiMP3 V2 transmits the sound waves through two pads that rest against your upper jawbone. The sound travels through your jawbone to your ear canal. The end result is high quality of sound that is unmatched by the iPod underwater kit or any other underwater headphones. If you are a serious swimmer or just looking to swim laps for exercise, invest in a SwiMP3 V2. Besides keeping the long laps from getting boring, you’ll find yourself swimming faster as you match your pace to the beat of your music (unless you listen to elevator music of course).

The SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player supports MP3 and WMA format, is Mac and PC compatible, and includes a rechargeable battery with up to 4 hours playback time. It includes a USB connector and carrying case. For more information on the SwiMP3 V2 Waterproof MP3 Player and other versions of the SwiMP3, go to http://www.activeforever.com.

The Gadget Man Gets Ripped with the Perfect Pushup Travel Edition

Sitting at a computer all day researching, writing, and messing with new gadgets does not do much for one’s physique (I know, hard to believe). Needless to say, The Gadget Man has felt in need of some way to get a ripped chest and some burly arms, especially with Summer approaching. So what better time than now to review a cool fitness device like the Perfect Pushup Travel Edition.

If you watch TV or read men’s magazines, chances are you have seen the Perfect Pushup. The Perfect Pushup Travel Edition, while a little more expensive, offers the convenience of a collapsible design and zippered, padded case for travel. It was featured in this article about travel fitness products: Travel Fitness Equipment – Exercise Products Designed To Help Busy Travelers Stay In Shape. People on vacation or businessmen who find themselves all over the country will find the ability to “stay ripped on the road” convenient, especially when the place they are staying does not have a fitness center or a respectable bar.

As far as the exercise itself, it feels great. I played sports all throughout my childhood and into college, and every coach used the pushup as a way of punishment. “You just lost the game you bunch of nancy-boys, gimme 50 pushups”. And why wouldn’t they? Though pushups are one of the oldest and most effective forms of exercise, they can be brutal on your wrists and arms. The Perfect Pushup Travel Edition elevates your hands so that your wrists are at a more comfortable, slightly bent position. The increased elevation of the perfect pushup handles let you lower yourself further down for a more effective workout of your chest, shoulders, back, and abs while the rotation of the handles enables you to work more muscle groups in your arms.

Here’s a picture of someone using the Perfect Pushup Travel Edition (no, it’s not me) and a diagram of how the exercise works.

So The Gadget Man has been using the Perfect Pushup Travel Edition for a few days now and I am already starting to feel a difference. In other words, I am sore as hell right now. But that will change, and soon The Gadget Man will be built like Superman. I highly recommend you check out the Perfect Pushup Travel Edition. It’s more money but well worth the price. You can find at the manufacturer’s website, but I got a better deal and get great service at http://www.activeforever.com

Until next time,

The Gadget Man
