Innovative educators know the importance of health, fitness, and tone to best serve students, staff, and families. There's great technology to help you do just that. I've tried a variety of devices including Fitbit, Oura ring, Whoop, and Amazon Halo. My top choice for what to use is the Amazon Halo View (with a screen) or Amazon Halo Band (no screen).
Most fitness trackers have standard features like heart rate, heart rate variability, steps, sleep, etc. The reason I like this device best is because it has features that many of the others don't. Here is what is different on this device from others.
- Great price: The Halo Band and Halo View can be purchased for as low as $49 during a sale to $100 which is much less than some of the competition. The first 6 months - year subscription usually comes with purchase and then the cost is about $3.99 a month.
- The partnerships: Halo partners with providers diet, meditation, and fitness providers like WeightWatchers, Orangetheory, Sweat, headspace, and more. This means you have a whole library of recipes, meditations, and exercise programs.
- Personalized program: The Halo measures your body composition and gives you a personalized exercise program based on your movement.
- Tone: Wonder how you sound to your students? Tone tells you just how you sound so you can stregthen your communication.
