If you don't have a personal trainer around to supervise your fitness progress 24/7, this little gizmo might be the next best thing. The MyTrak acts as a sort of super-pedometer by gauging your estimated heart rate and movement level and working out how many calories you've burned through during your daily activities.

Its LED circlewill glow green if you're set to meet your stated goal, yellow if you need to pick up the pace, and red if you're totally off-track. The unit comes packaged with software that tracks your overall progress toward your fitness goal, and a $69.95 premium membership gets you advice from certified trainers, more in-depth charting software, and access to their online community. Walk awaywith a MyTrak for $99.95 by visiting mytrak.com.
