BodyMedia Armband Review
Happy Monday!
I finally got around to recording my first vlog. Am I the only one that feels super awkward on video?
I wanted to post a video review of the BodyMedia Link Armband, because it has some really great features, and I think it’s an awesome tool, if you’re trying to count calories.
In a nutshell, I think the armband is totally worth it, if you want to take your calorie tracking to the next level. It’s relatively comfortable to wear, it’s easy to sync, and it allows you to see exactly how much you’re burning. For $120, it’s definitely an investment, but I did really enjoy the data it gave me.
Disclaimer: I received this product free of charge, but all opinions are my own.
I am always very curious about the accuracy of these devices! Thanks for the review. I’ve never used a device to track that sort of thing . . . just estimated using my own pencil and paper.
Awesome job on your first vlog! You are so brave – I would feel incredibly awkward doing it, but it is so nice when blogger do vlogs, it makes it feel more ‘real’ and personal. Fun gadget, thanks for sharing!
We’re so close at this point that I feel awkward FOR you. I don’t think you’re awkward at all, but I feel like I can sense your feelings and I could only watch like 30 seconds without being like “AHH! I know how this armband works why am I forcing myself to try to watch this!” hahaha. Ohhhh man.
awww!! I’ll have to watch your vlog when I get home from work :p I’ve heard of this calorie counter though, personally I use myfitnesspal lol I’ve actually made lots of friends on it– kinda cool haha
Oh cool! I have a few friends that use My Fitness Pal and I’ve heard it’s great! I like using the Body Media band to track what I’m burning, and then use an app like that for actual food tracking.
Look at you miss natural on camera!!! Great job on the vlog, love it! 🙂
Thanks! 🙂 We gotta catch up soon! Tio Pablo?!
Oh I totally feel awkward on camera! That’s why I don’t do vlogs. You don’t look awkward in this at all, but I feel your pain! Also, I tried fitbit, but I feel like I got too obsessed with tracking calories/exercise. I’m hesitant to try another thing, but I have been hearing about this armband a lot.
That’s a great gadget to get to trial before you buy!
Heads up…I just nominated you for the Liebster Award!
Aw thanks! Ill go check it out!
I think it would also help me move during the day rather than just sit at my desk.. Definitely a little expensive but worth it if you’re actively trying to lose weight!
It really is! I love that it makes you aware of the need to move!
Great review Liz and awesome first VLOG! I’m always so awkward on video.
Haha thanks!! I felt so awkward! 😉
I always thought that those calorie-counting armbands were like something out of a science fiction movie 🙂
