Why You Should Get A Fitness Watch

In a world where the 9-5 causes millions to sit for the whole day, I have found it significantly important to find ways to remember to get my body moving. As the saying goes, more movement means a happier life and more creative ideas! Below are some tips and benefits I have found from getting a fitness watch. Preferably, I usually opt for a Garmin, Fitbit, etc. over the expensive Apple Watches or Samsung watches because the amount of information and notifications those devices provide are very similar to phones.

1. Reminders To Walk

  • My favorite part about owning a fitness watch is knowing that I'm constantly making progress towards better health and knowing when I'm being sedentary for too long. Rewarding good habits such as getting up for a walk instead of sitting down has been a great reminder to keep moving.

2. Music capabilities

  • The only and main reason I remember originally buying my first new fitness watch was for music controls while I exercise. These are still features I take advantage of with every workout.

3. Less distractions

  • As long as you don't invest in an expensive Apple Watch or at least turn off unnecessary notifications that you can possibly see on your phone. You will notice that you start to pick up your phone less and focus more on only the time, your music, or the world around you. I wouldn't trade these features for another phone which most smart watches are trying to do these days which removes from the simplicity of just owning a watch.

4. Tracking your fitness

  • Your watch will most likely sync with your phone to log your progress so each day you will know how you've been doing during the week in terms of reaching your goals or any improvements that may need to be made.

5.  Motivational

  • Owning a fitness watch has become a motivation at least for me to constantly stay active. It is similar to an investment except this investment is for your health and benefit. 
I hope you found something helpful here and may consider buying a fitness watch in the future to help you reach your fitness goals!

Why I Stopped Blogging For A While And My Life Restart For 2021

 Besides how crazy last semester was and the current pandemic of things, I honestly didn't want to try anymore. I had created too many walls to even start. I spent majority of my time rediscovering myself. I missed who I was before this pandemic started. One setback I wanted to let people know about was that this was my first time not going home for Christmas and spending the holidays alone in my college dorm room. The rest of this post will elaborate on the events that took place. I felt like I became Batman. Stuck in my hole without anyone. I turned to anime specifically very dark anime. I stopped majority of my habits I had developed last school year including blogging or making Youtube videos. I stuck mainly with working on my art drawings that I had created the past school year. I slept late and ate junk food especially McDonalds. At one point, I felt like I had essentially fallen into a rut. However, this was only the hard parts of the story. I saw myself grow. Social media s...

Why You Should Say "Hi" First

Ever walk down the street and see millions of faces you don't know and just wish on the inside that you had the courage to talk to people. As an introvert and shy guy in general, I have struggled with this problem for most of my life and all of that slowly started to change the moment I decided to take initiative and say hi first. No one will wait for you to say it. I found it to be more of an instinct that occurs the moment I lay eyes on a close friend or acquaintance. It helps with easing the tension when our brains recognize a familiar face. If you struggle with social anxiety, this may help you ease those worries but the best way to do it still is to recognize that you need to reprogram your mind to see social situations in a different light honestly. The only exception to this is someone who ends up ignoring your presence entirely as you acknowledge them. It is a very dissatisfying feeling but there definitely are people like that. Don't worry about them, they aren...

What I Learned About Life From Watching "Codename: Kids Next Door (KND)"

Image
The Kids Next Door (KND) is an early 2000s Cartoon Network TV show that was based on the idea of kids with their endless creativity teaming up with their friends to fight off their enemies who were regularly adults. I know this concept seems a bit convoluted but it actually is a lot more understandable than it sounds. KND only fights evil adults that treat others badly because not all adults are bad and not all teenagers are bad either; it is the acts of unfair treatment or cheating that causes this team of operatives to spring into action and save others, specifically kids. They are similar to the Men In Black or the James Bond for children giving them a voice when no one could at their age. When I was a kid, this show had an amazing impact on me! I couldn't believe how awesome kids were creating amazing tree houses full of all kinds of amazing technology. In modern times, things have only gotten better as kids are becoming even more creative through social platforms such as Tik...
