Does your family set New Year's resolutions? Is one of them to be more active as a family? Monkey see, monkey do right. If my children see me being active then hopefully it will encourage them to want to get out there and stay fit. While mine are still on the young side I don't think it's ever to early to encourage exercise and activities that keep them healthy. This past year I ran a half marathon and this year I am signed up to run a full marathon with my sister. This goal has provided a great way for me to share with my kids the importance of getting fit, having goals and the excitement when you reach them.
Sam's Club Game Hub just launched a NEW bundle with XBOX 360 Kinect to help shoppers and their families actually keep their New Year's fitness resolutions. The Fitbit XBOX 360 Kinect bundle, includes a XBOX 360 Kinect, a FitBit Activity Tracker, "Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012", the sequel to the #1 fitness game on Kinect.
The FitBit Tracker is like a super advanced pedometer and tracks your real-time activity stats, including: steps, distance, floors climbed, and calories burned. People using the FitBit claim that because they are aware of their daily movements, they walk 43% farther and lose an average of 13 pounds! The "Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012" fitness game is a social and fun workout experience, totally customizable. Your Shape includes over 90 hours of activities to suit you and your family's taste and fitness goals. It also has a feedback system that guides you on how to improve your technique and results.
Fitbit Overview:
Fit fitness into your day - Make every step you take a step toward better fitness. The Fitbit Tracker shows your real-time activity stats so you know how close you are to your goals. It’s with you every step of the day, motivating you to make small changes that add up to big results.
The Fitbit Ultra uses a MEMS 3-axis accelerometer that measures your motion patterns to tell you your calories burned, steps taken, distance traveled, and sleep quality. A built-in MEMS altimeter measures your vertical climb up stairs and hills.
What’s Included:
1 Fitbit Tracker
1 base station / charger
1 sleep wrist band
1 belt holster
Single-button control - Each press of the button cycles the display through one of 6 modes:
• Steps
• Distance
• Floors Climbed
• Calories Burned
• Flower (overall recent activity level)
• Clock
The Fitbit Tracker syncs wirelessly to the base station (included in package) using an ultra-low power 2.4 GHz ANT radio transceiver. Sync occurs automatically, anytime your Tracker is within about 15 feet of any base station and relatively motionless. The base station plugs into your Mac or PC’s USB port. Syncing and uploading requires use of the free Fitbit uploader application. The free membership to
Fitbit.com, includes ability to log and chart activities, food, sleep, water, body mass, weight, and much more
