    Hot In The Hive: The Sony W Series Walkman

    One would think that being both a jogger and a musicophile is a personality combo made in athlete's heaven, given all the Apple-Nike collabos and music-friendly running accessories, not to mention all the sweet hour-long cardio remixes I've stumbled across on Pandora. But running with your music device is easier said than done, unfortunately, especially if you're jogging out in the fresh air without a treadmill's shelf to perch your player upon. In an effort to keep my hands free, I've even tucked my iPod under the band of my sports bra... which kept it secure, but soaked in sweat by the time my run was over (sorry, TMI). Sure, you could always buy an armband holster specifically for your mp3 gadget, but I'm still always getting my headphone wires snagged and yanked out by bushes and mailboxes I've narrowly had to bypass. Is it just me, or should combining these hobbies be much less complicated?! With the Sony W Series Walkman, it finally is! The 2-gig gizmo combines the music player and the earpieces into a one-part device, so it's literally just a pair of headphones -- no wires to get tangled in or contraption to tuck anywhere but your ears! It functions similarly to the iPod Shuffle, only let's face it -- this is much more convenient for a girl on the go. Plus, even if you're not sold yet on the concept itself, how can you resist its hot pink design?


    Price: $69.99

    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!

    Is getting in shape at the top of your new years resolution list? Want some help in sticking to it? Then check out the cool workout accessories we've found. If you want to start taking a regular yoga class, pick up the essential mat and bag to get you going. A giant gym ball can jumpstart a strength training routine that is sure to actually be a lot more fun than standard weights. Make sure you stay hydrated during your workouts with a reusable water bottle like one by Sigg - lose the plastic ones please! For cardio especially, don't forget an ipod - music can really help you get motivated. Lululemon has some great apparel with special pockets just for your ipod, and Nike has some innovative products that track progress in terms of time, distance, calories burned, and pace for all the runners out there. And you'll need a bag that will fit all of your essentials like this one by Adidas by Stella McCartney. Check out the SLIDESHOW, and start your new routine today!

    Everyone knows that the first day of the year is a great time to set goals and get your rear, finances, or organization in gear. A pretty typical goal is to lose weight and get totally fit. Maybe your goals are purely health-related, but maybe you just want to be able to fit into designer samples. Either way, I've found some super-cute workout clothes sure to make you want to show them off at the gym. You'll definitely be shaking your tailfeather in PrAna's Sabin Racerback Tank and Izzie Pants. Don't be afraid to buy a few outfits - nothing is more valuable than your health and feeling (and looking!) great! Check out my SLIDESHOW for plenty of cute work out clothes! All you'll need is a killer playlist and some inspiration!
