    I consider myself pretty in-shape, relatively speaking. But just because I'm not huffing and puffing after two minutes on the elliptical or on the verge of a heart attack while jogging on the treadmill doesn't mean I have an easy time motivating myself to even get to the gym in the first place! Unless you have a ton of self-discipline, a particularly fitness-savvy gym buddy, or a ridiculously good-looking personal trainer, it can be tough to get excited about working out, no matter the level of your athleticism. And even if you try to work out outside of the gym to spice things up, it's easy to get fed up trying to keep track of your workout, time your jogs, and know offhand how many calories you've burned. Enter today's hottest workout gadgets, including sports bras with built-in heart rate monitors, calorie-counting GPS wristwatches, and iPhone bike mounts (because let's face it -- exercising just isn't worth it without some tunes to pump you up). There's no need to keep it old-fashioned with your fitness regime when technology's rapid advancements turn an activity you'd normally dread into... well, something almost fun! Take a look at the slideshow to see how you can technologize your training sessions!

    Would you define your dad as a jet set traveler? Does he often fly cross country for business meetings or go off to exotic countries for research opportunities? Whatever the reason, you've probably seen the pages of stamps on his passport or well worn luggage in his closet. So why not give him something this Father's Day that makes his travels easier? You can't guarantee that his luggage won't be lost or that babies will stay quiet on his flights. But for some peace and quiet on his airplane rides, check out the Bose Quiet Comfort Noise Canceling headphones. They're super lightweight and neutralizes outside noise for the best listening experience. For the dad who's always in a suit and tie, give him a pair of cedar shoe trees to keep his fancy shoes from getting crushed in his luggage and to keep bugs and mildew away. For more Father's Day gifts fit for the world wandering dad, check out my slideshow!

    When it comes to high school and college grads, tech-savvy gifts are some of the best around. There's so much on the market though, so it's important to figure out what they already have and what would make a good addition to their lives. For instance, college grad moving to a new city? How about the Garmin eTrex Legend GPS to help them find their way around their new home? High school grad was a cross country superstar? I think an iPod shuffle would be a perfect gift to accompany them on their runs in college. If your niece graduated with a degree in environmental science, how about the solar battery charger to help her charge her phone while out on a clean-up site? Check out my slideshow for lots of other tech savvy gifts for grads!

    Clueless as to what to get your geeky step brother or your tech-savvy boyfriend? This is probably the best year ever to get them some of the coolest gadgets out there! Get in line now for Amazon's Kindle, a revolutionary wireless reading device that lets you download books directly to the reading device. Get him something cooler to attach to his belt than his iPhone, like a flip video recorder the size of a digital camera to record all those holiday memories. Or get him Polaroid's new portable photo printer that plugs directly into your camera and lets your print pics on the spot (proof to show Aunt May that her holiday sweater does make her look like an Ompa Lompa!) These gadgets are so cool, you might even want one for yourself too! Check out my slideshow for my top gifts for the geeky guy!

    Living near Silicon Valley, I have a lot of guy friends who work in the technology field. That definitely helps when they lend a hand when I can't figure out how to run a software program or hook up my complicated stereo system. So as a token of thanks, I've found some great gadgets my tech-savvy friends will like and I think yours will too! Is he always lost or late because he can't (or won't) read the maps? Give him a GPS navigator that has maps for the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico and will find the nearest ATMs, restaurants and gas stations. Got a friend who has every gadget known to mankind? Get him this handy charging tray where he can charge his phone, camera, and other gadgets all in one place! For more electronic gadgets that will make his holiday extra special, click on the slideshow.
