Tickr X – Enjoy a Smartphone-Free Workout

Disclosure: Influence Central received a complimentary Wahoo TickrX in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are our own.

With all the wearable fitness trackers on the market today, it can feel challenging to find the right one for your needs, and favorite activity. Measuring beyond just ‘steps’ proves integral to cyclists, weight trainers, yoga enthusiasts and more, so proper research must be conducted before making a purchase.

Wahoo Fitness designed a sleek, small, and accurate wearable workout tracker they call Tickr X. With something for nearly every type of workout, while comfortably strapped around your chest, this device easily counts reps, indoor cycling cadence, treadmill activity, calories burned, and more, capturing both motions and intensity. While apps used through iPhone, Apple Watch, and other wearables flood the market, Tickr X targets specific activities and types of workouts other trackers have difficulty identifying.

And for those who prefer workouts to be ‘off the grid’, this tracker has an internal memory to monitor performance while your phone sits at home. How’s that for freedom?

Wahoo’s Tickr X can be purchased online at retailers such as Amazon, for about $100.
