Most guys don’t like anything that reminds them about their health. We’re strong men, dammit, and we don’t need anyone to be telling us what to do… unless it is from a cute little gadget, like Fitbit. The Zip ($60) and the One ($100) can both be concealed on your belt, and will help you gauge the number of steps you take throughout the day (including trips up and down the stairs). In other words, how much aerobic activity you are actually engaging in, and how many calories you burn during the workday. These can also be synced to your smartphone or tablet using Bluetooth 4.0, giving you access to your long-term results.
The main difference that separates these gadgets from each other, other than the $40 buck difference, is that the One is also a sleep monitor. It can keep track of how long and how well you sleep each night, and can even wake you up in the morning by gently vibrating on your wrist.
