Headphones for exercise are ever
evolving, but LifeBeam Vi very
much comes with a twist - it is
in effect an artificial intelligence
personal trainer. The system
learns how you work out and
adapts to your fitness level and
goal-setting. Vi talks to you while
you train - a permanent workout
companion for those who need
additional encouragement in
training whether keeping you up
to date on your heart rate, telling
you how to shave time off your
usual run or keeping you in the
loop with your current location.
£190 for a set, getvi.com

It's hard to believe
that the Ionic is Fitbit's
first foray into the
smartwatch market.
However, it's definitely
been worth the wait.
The stunning Ionic is
waterproof, boasts an
accurate heart-rate
monitor and those
graphics are positively
futuristic. It even
stores and plays music,
meaning no more
chunky smartphones.
£299.95, fitbit.com/ionic

LifeBeam Vi - just the
push you need if your
training needs a boost

Trick and treat

Worn like a headband for 45 minutes per day, Modius has come
up with a way (using electrical stimulation) to tell your brain
you're exercising without breaking a sweat.

Next year, Vexatec is
launching what it believes
will be the leader in hitech breathable wear, the
AGILITY-Shirt. Looking
like something out of the Iron
Man franchise, high-precision
sensors are sewn into the fabric
with an advanced 3D-A Cluster
to measure and analyse your
exercise: an electrocardiogram,
heart-rate variability, calorie
consumption, respiratory rate
and more. It can all be tracked in
real time via a smartphone app.

virtual fitness
If you combine gaming and a
fitness workout, you get Icaros.
Effectively the user gets into the
plank position and uses their
core strength to control their
movements on the robot-like
machine. This is all done while
plugged into a virtual reality
system where you can choose
to fly, dive or free fall among
other things. Understandably,
it doesn't come cheap at £7,000.
