GEAR UP

By Ann Campbell

The beat goes on
Pace yourself with the NuMetrex Heart Rate
Monitor Sports Bra. Special sensors knit right
into the bra’s seamless fabric send heart-rate
data to a small transmitter (removable for
washing) that relays information to a wristwatch,
allowing you to adjust the intensity of your
exercise accordingly. $49.95; numetrex.com

Core values
Never chase your roly-poly exercise ball again.
Sit, lie and lean on the BOSU Ballast Ball to
perform your favorite core-strengthening
exercises, then stand up and—voilà!—the
ball stays in place thanks to the sand-like
material inside. $59.95; bosu.com

Watercooler cool
Beauty meets function with refreshing results
in the Ovopur water filter unit by Aquaovo. The
egg-shaped unit employs gravity and the
thermal properties of porcelain to provide water
fit for maximum hydration—and an eye-catching
design fit for your home exercise space. A new
12-volt thermoelectric cooling system can be
inserted into the base for eco-friendly chilling.
