One of the most common New Years Resolutions is to get fit and lose weight. Now while we are not focusing on the weight loss specifically. We are looking to be more fit. We have been working on our eating and fitness. We have both the Fitbit One and the Shine fitness trackers, both of which are available at Best Buy. The Husband uses one and I use the other. But what really motivates us is listening to our favorite workout playlist. There is just something about having a great workout playlist that motivates you to get moving.

Workout playlist safety

Studies have shown that music can increase the intensity and duration of a workout by as much as 15%. Unfortunately, most people miss out on those benefits because their earphones hurt and fall out during active use. Now there are a few things to keep in mind when you are working out to stay safe. Especially if you are like us and love listening to your workout playlist.

• Find music that is between between 120 and 140 beats per minute. Anything slower won’t peak your heart rate and motivation enough. Too Fast and it works against you and your workout.
• Don’t rely on music. If you are a marathon or race runner, don’t rely on your music too much. Some races/marathons have banned the use of music on the race. So for every 2 runs you do with music; do one without. And make sure most runs just prior to the race or marathon are without music so you are sure to still perform at peak performance during the race or marathon.
• Watch the volume. While we all love to hear the music. Too loud for too long and you can injure your ears and cause permanent hearing loss.
• Play it safe. make sure your music is at an appropriate volume that you can still hear sounds from your environment around you. You want to make sure you can hear of any dangers around you, traffic, dogs, etc to keep you aware of your surroundings and keep yourself safe.
• Use appropriate headphones. You want to ensure you are using headphones that are safe to use for your ears, won’t have cords that can tangle easily, and fit well into your ears without pain.

One of the best ear buds I have seen are the new Yurbuds at Best Buy! These ear buds are wireless and use Bluetooth capabilities. SO you don’t have to worry about wires or cords getting tangles or hooked on machines you are working out on; or on branches as you run by.
