New Year's Resolution Success You Can Count On
RYP SportsÂ’ Ez-V Digital Pedometer - Making Better Health and Weight Loss Achievable in 2005
(PRWEB) January 5, 2005
As the calendar turns its page to a new year, RYP Sports unveils a sleek, new, easy-to-read pedometer that is specifically designed to assist New YearÂ’s resolution makers in achieving their exercise-oriented goals. Thanks to its large, clear display, the Ez-V Digital Pedometer takes the guesswork out of fitness accounting.
WhatÂ’s more, its thin, lightweight, clip-on design makes it portable and non-cumbersome for on-the-go use. With all these attractive features built-in, fitness enthusiasts will be happy to learn that this #H215 model pedometer is available for purchase at www. RaiseYourPulse. com for under twenty dollars.
According to a recent News 14 Carolina report based on the UNC Clinical Nutrition Research Center directorÂ’s investigative findings, 40 percent of Americans resolved to lose weight in 2004. Unfortunately, only one in five managed to do so successfully. Yo-yo dieting and food deprivation strategies most often undermined their success. In the elusive weight loss battle, calorie restriction alone just doesnÂ’t work. ThatÂ’s where incorporation of a regular exercise regimen into a healthy eating plan becomes essential. Just how much exercise is required, however, for long-term weight management success?
Both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American College of Sports Medicine recommend ten thousand steps a day, the equivalent of five walking miles. In addition to ongoing weight management, the benefits of this exercise recommendation include lower blood pressure, improved glucose tolerance and increased cardiovascular health.
A study conducted by the American College of Sports Medicine further revealed that research participants who wore pedometers walked much farther than those individuals who were merely encouraged to do so by their doctors. Thanks to its four-in-one functionality—steps, distance, calories and time of day all being accurately measured—the Ez-V Digital Pedometer is the ideal motivational tool for those who are committed to getting in shape in 2005.
