Customer Reviews of Omron HJ-151 Hip Pedometer for Aerobic Activity

Customer Review: Excellent Pedometer
Summary: 5 Stars

I almost didn't get this pedometer based on the reviews saying it didn't clip well but I am glad I went ahead and got it!

First the pros:
- The clip isn't a belt clip or an eyeglass clip that you slip on or through, it has a hinge with a gripped clip to keep it sturdy in place. The first day I got it I went for a walk with my 1 year old in his stroller for a good 30 minutes. I went at a moderate pace and I never once felt the pedometer come lose or fall off.
- The pedometer also has a digital clock on it, I didn't realize that when I bought it. It just makes me love the pedometer that much more since I always forget to wear a wrist watch.
- Just as it advertises it keeps a weeks worth of steps which is awesome for folks like me who like to keep track of calories burnt (trying to lose weight) but sometime forget to mark the info down for a couple days.
- All the features as advertised are easy to use and virtually self explanatory. I only needed to read the manual to turn on the pedometer.
- All in all a great product for 15 dolar from amazon.com

The cons:
- I wish it was a little bigger, that's just my personal preference.
- The 'set' and 'reset|start up' buttons on the back of the pedometer are virtually identical so when you go to turn it on don't spend 5 minutes cursing thinking the battery is already bad because you are poking at the 'set' button like an idiot! ;) Just make sure you hold the back up to a light so you can clearly see the word 'set' or an arrow which points to the 'reset|start up' button. And also note both of these buttons are grey and indented so you will need a paper clip or something similar to tap them.

Product Description: OmronŽ HJ-151 Pedometer

Physical activity is essential to staying healthy, and every small step can lead to big improvements. An accurate Omron Pedometer like the HJ-151 is a partner that motivates you to take those extra steps toward better health and increased energy. Just clip it to your hip and it accurately counts every step, using Omron's renowned accelerometer technology. The HJ-151 pedometer is specially designed for power walking and aerobic exercise. It counts your moderate (i.e., "brisk") steps separately from normal walking steps, as well as the distance and time you've traveled, giving you more information about your overall activity level.

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-151 Pedometer offers:
Omron Dual-Axis Technology? Counts steps accurately and quietly when used on the hip
Tracks Two Kinds of Steps? The HJ-151 tracks both regular and brisk steps separately
Tracks Daily Distance and Calories Burned? For better health tracking
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
Four tracking modes? Track steps, moderate "brisk" steps, time and distance

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-151, 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.
