Activity trackers have absolutely exploded the last two years and have quickly become the new “it” emerging product category. While there are no shortage of styles and form factors you can find these devices in, there is a somewhat surprising lack of diversity in the amount of things they can actually track. Most activity trackers are glorified step counters (and inaccurate ones at that), usually with added sleep tracking and, if you’re particularly lucky, heart rate monitoring. And while this functionality can certainly be quite entertaining or useful for getting data about how active you were in a given day, or how far you ran or biked, they still leave a lot to be desired.
Gymwatch, on display at CES this year, hopes to pick up where a lot of activity trackers fall short by giving you accurate information about all the other kinds of exercises you might want to perform. Specifically of the weight-lifting variety. Gymwatch makes the claim that their wearable can track over 900 exercises, including everything from kettlebell exercises to the bench press. Gymwatch doesn’t just keep tabs on reps though - their sensor detects range of motion, measures strength, muscle loads, reps and can even detect incorrectly performed exercises and tell you how to improve.
Bold claims, and a bold price to match. Gymwatch starts at $199 for one sensor, and $389 for two. The catch is that you need two sensors to be able to properly track a number of exercises where information on both arms or legs is necessary.
