Omron HJ-150 Hip Pedometer

Product Description: Omron® HJ-150 Pedometer

Increasing your activity level is a great way to improve your health and reduce stress, and every step counts. An accurate Omron Pedometer like the HJ-150 is a simple and easy-to-use motivational tool. The easy-to-read display also shows your steps over the past 7 days, so you can accurately track your progress. You can count on the HJ-150 to help you turn short-term goals into long-term gains for your health and wellness.

When You Know Your Numbers, You'll Grow Your Numbers.

You'd be surprised by how many steps you already take each day. A few hundred walking to the bus, a couple thousand going a few blocks down for lunch, and with an Omron Pedometer you'll know just how many steps you're taking and begin looking for ways to see that number get bigger every day.

Every Step Counts

Omron Pedometers use smart sensor technology rather than the standard pendulum system to get a more accurate reading.

The Omron HJ-150 Pedometer offers:

Omron Dual-Axis Technology—Counts steps accurately and quietly when used on the hip
Automatic Reset—Start with a clean slate each day to track your steps more accurately
Weekly Log—Store up to 7 days of information in memory; resets to zero at midnight so you're ready to go every morning

A few steps toward a healthier life

Walking is a great way to stay healthy. In fact, walking 10,000 steps a day is widely recommended by health and fitness professionals. And when you track your steps with a pedometer, like the Omron HJ-150, studies show you're likely to increase your total number of steps a day by about 2,000, or 1 mile.*

Getting Started

Warm Up First-Before your walk, stretch (arm circles, hip circles and leg lifts) to get your blood flowing and reduce the risk of injury.

Use a Pedometer—Omron Pedometers are the partners you can count on when you want to accurately track your daily routine and help you reach your recommended 10,000 daily steps.

Set Goals—Begin slowly and work your way up. By setting goals you'll push yourself farther and achieve more.

Mix It Up—Add variety to your routine by changing pace, walking uphill or just changing your route.

Add Resistance—Include some upper-body exercises as you walk, such as arm reaches or carrying water bottles in each hand to increase your calorie burn.
