NEW-LIFESTYLES is your all-in-one source for pedometers, accelerometers, physical activity data tracking systems (like EveryStepCounts.com) and top-notch program materials. With our new accelerometer and pedometer line-up-NL-series, DIGI-WALKER SW-series, and AT-series-you're bound to find one that fits your needs and budget!
#1 NL-Series Accelerometers
With the NL-2000 and the new NL-1000 and NL-800 accelerometers, NEW-LIFESTYLES takes the next step in precision step counting. Engineered to work just as well on bigger bodies as they do on smaller bodies, they don't need to remain perfectly vertical on the body to count correctly like spring-levered pedometers. New features include a large display, a strong metal-plastic hybrid clip, and most important of all an MVPA™ Timer (moderate-to-vigorous physical activity timer), and 7-day memory.
The LIFECORDER EXTM (NL-2200) is a downloadable accelerometer that, when clipped onto a student's waistband or belt, counts steps, measures the intensity of activity, computes basal metabolic rate (BMR), calculates activity calorie and total calorie expenditure, and uniquely stores 200 days of data. The graphic reports LIFECORDER EX™ generates make it easy to measure a student's activity throughout his or her entire day and to see patterns of MVPA (moderate-to-vigorous physical activity), step count, and energy expenditure along with patterns of sedentary behavior that can be targeted for improvement. It's another fool-proof tool that's perfect for collecting and assessing student physical activity data.
#2 SW-Series DIGI-WALKER Pedometers
Still the best spring-levered pedometer in the world, the DIGI-WALKER SW-series continues to set the gold standard for accurate and reliable step counting. Well-engineered features like its strong coiled spring, dampened conductive posts, and long smooth lever-arm make the DIGI-WALKER durable, quiet, and accurate.
#3 AT-Series Pedometers
NEW-LIFESTYLES is now an official distributor of Activity Technologies pedometers. Considered the best of the hairspring pedometers, they're a great option for the budget-strapped who don't need research-quality pedometers. The AT-series pedometers contain the same hairspring-levered internal mechanism as those sold for considerably more money by other pedometer dealers. (They are actually the same pedometer as Walk4Life pedometers and are made at the same factory, but on the AT-80 we beefed up the clip and repositioned the RESET and MODE buttons so they followed the principles of good design!) We liked the product for what it could offer (namely, a much lower price-point), but we didn't like the high price. Therefore, we're selling it at a smaller profit to give more students a chance to experience step-counting and become more active, more often!
In addition to being the leading supplier of accurate and reliable activity monitors, NEW-LIFESTYLES' pedometer program kits contain everything that you need to implement a successful step counting program in your school, plus a multitude of activity ideas to make your program top-notch and FUN! Of special note is our teacher's activity guidebook, Teaching with Pedometers: A School Activity Guide written by fitness and pedometer expert, Teresa Vollenweider. Within these 90 pages are tips and procedures for running a school pedometer program, including ideas for promotions and fundraising. More than half of the book is dedicated to activity ideas (categorized by age level) and their corresponding worksheets, and they're ready to copy!
New-Lifestyles.com is an ever-evolving source for the latest technology and research information, diabetes education and support materials, grant writing services, pedometer kit specials, our special series of Health and Fitness curriculum fact sheets with mini-quizzes, and a FREE RESOURCES section. From the website, you can also register to receive NEW-LIFESTYLES Steps To A Healthier YouTM bi-monthly e-newsletter. Be sure to check New-Lifestyles.com often to see what's new!
