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.

My wife takes care of everything I need. Sometimes I feel what I would be without her! Without her I cannot take a single step and become completely numb. Off late she has again surprised me with a pedometer. Both of us take a stroll in the morning. But mostly I go out because I have to take extra care of my weight gain. She understood my needs and felt that a pedometer will not only compute my calorie count, distance I walk but also motivate me to keep on increasing my performance day by day to come back to the shape which is not hazardous to one’s health. She got for me the Bodytronics ProCal Calorie Pedometer. Though this is a cheap pedometer, yet it is quite effective in motivating me with its features.
