My father has a good habit of getting up early in the morning and going out for a walk with our pet ‘Sharp.’ Both have a good chemistry and they stroll for more than half an hour everyday. But he never knew what the amount of calories he was burning and what distance he walked actually. One day I suddenly had an idea of gifting him something which would be really useful to him. After long thoughts I found a pedometer would be the best thing I could gift him right at this moment. And I wanted something best for my great father! I bought sportline pedometer 345 after I compared and contrasted the characters of the pedometer.

This pedometer is one of the top most brands of pedometers. The best part of this sportline pedometer is the use of solid state medical grade sensor and digital filter process which helps you to get the most accurate results. The pedometer has been designed for counting steps filtering the vibrations and motions. The pedometer also measures the intensity of the physical activity, and provides an accurate report on how much time you have spent on high intensity level of activities or other activities.

One of the things that I like about this  GoWalking SportLine Pedometer is that it small,  and is so easy to set up and begin using. All you have to do is pull the battery protector tab off of the back, peel off the plastic film that is covering the display screen and determine if you want the Distance Mode to display in miles or kilometers and set it accordingly. Pretty easy to do it even if you are walking at the time you decide to make the changes

The next thing you need to do is to determine your stride length and set that into the pedometer. The package gives detailed instructions on performing this simple task. Clip the pedometer to your belt or waistband and you’re ready to go. I like to clip it on to the top of my sock, it just seems like I would get a more accurate reading that way and it is more comfortable than on my waistband. (I guess it depends where you want to use the pedometer, but for me the GoWalking Sportline Pedometer is much better to use in a waistband, specially if you go running.

I must say setting the stride was simple and being able to change modes and see how many steps, I guess that’s why I like so much the  GoWalking SportLine Pedometer, let me make this clear regarding this pedometer, i have use many pedometers before but I think this one has something really unique  I’d taken and how many miles it was, really fascinates me. I find many boost from assuring the steps add up and by course I began tracking my steps so I could see my progress.

The viewing liquid crystal display viewing screen on this pedometer is a good size, not too big nor too small and the buttons are on the front for changing the Mode, Resetting and to Set up the pedometer. The attachable the back is a simple press and it opens so that you are able to attach to your clothing. It is similar to a clothespin type of clip and very easy to use but also very secure. I’ve never had it belt down off or come untied while wearing it, so I’d say it is a pretty sturdy attachable.

My daughter has a problem with hearing hers click as the numbers change, but I haven’t noticed that with mine, except occasionally. I do know that if I move my foot a lot it calculates that as steps and is among the reasons I decided to purchase a more accurate pedometer.  There are 2 cool things that I like of GoWalking by SportLine pedometer
