Fitness Friday: Beets BLU Bluetooth Scale Review

For today's Fitness Friday, I am sharing a review of a Smart Scale that I've really come to love! Be sure to check it out and let me know your thoughts in the comments below! :) Happy Friday!

Health and fitness is something that has always ranked high on my list as long as I can remember. Now that I've come full circle with pregnancy, postpartum, and being a new mom, I've learned a few valuable lessons about time management, food preparation, and cutting out the excess. Losing the baby weight has been in the back of my mind since I gave birth to my son and although I don't obsess over my weight or stress over numbers, I do find it interesting.
 
So, when Beets BLU contacted me about doing a review of their Wireless Smart Scale, I immediately said yes!

The first couple of things that impressed me about this scale were the weight of the scale (it's incredibly light weight) and the sleekness of the design. It was also really easy to setup and I love the data it includes in the measurements!

The Beets BLU Bluetooth scale works off an app that's downloaded to your smart device (it works on both android and Apple devices). Requirements: iPhone 4S, iPad 3, Android with OS 5.0 & Bluetooth 4.0 hardware 

After downloading and opening the app, the following prompts are given:

 Once all of the data has been entered, another set of prompts are given:

After stepping on the scale, the first sound alert gives your weight followed by the second sound alert which measures your body composition.  On the scale itself, all that's shown is your current weight. The additional information can be found through the app on your device.

I love all of the data that is given and how your data is stored over time to show your progress! Both Jason and I downloaded the app and are using the scale - I love how our information doesn't get crossed over - my weight/info is recorded in my app and my husband's weight/info is recorded in his app!

I borrowed the above and below images from the app store to show how the Smart Scale not only follows measurements and data over time but also gives graphs and scales to follow your progress!

Madalynn even assisted me with a few positioning/lighting shots...this image was just too funny, I had to share!

(She will do almost anything for a treat!)

Features of the Beets BLU Bluetooth scale include:

• Lightweight
• Small in size (fits perfectly in the corner of my bathroom!)
• Easy setup
• Sleek design
• Instant wireless data transfer (the information shows up on your device super fast!)
• Multiple users

Data collection from the scale include:

• Weight
• Fat Percentage
• Body Water
• Muscle Mass

Overall, I love this scale and the information it provides! I'm looking forward to using it throughout my upcoming fall training season and hopefully losing the last few pounds of baby weight that's been hanging around!

This smart scale can be purchased from the following locations:

• Amazon 
• BeetsBLU website

What do you think of the idea of smart scales? Do you own one?

Review: BeetsBLU PagerTag

Pregnancy brain. It's a legit thing, y'all. I've forgotten so many things over the course of the past few months, it's ridiculous.

One important thing I misplaced was my car keys. They were "gone" for several hours and I had no clue where I last put them. Someone else found them inside my outer jacket pocket that was hanging over a chair. Oy.

Imagine my surprise the following week when BeetsBLU contacted me about hosting a review on one of their Bluetooth smart products including a heart rate monitor. Since I'm not currently allowed (per Dr.'s orders) to perform any fitness activities at this moment, she suggested their wireless key fob called PagerTag! PagerTag is an alarm that produces a sound with just the push of a button from your phone.

I can't tell you how excited I was to try out this product, especially after the key fiasco that almost stranded me the week before!

The greatest thing about the PagerTag is that it doesn't HAVE to be used on your keys. If you want to keep it with other valuables, then you can!

Getting the PagerTag set up was a little challenging as I couldn't figure out how to connect it to the app on my phone at first but once I got the hang of it, all was well!

Before long, I was all set!

In order to use the PagerTag, you must have an iPhone 4S or later model. It can also pair with the Samsung Galaxy S4 or later. The app is simply called "PagerTag".

A few alarm options exist and the one I use the most is the push button alarm. If I can't find my keys, I simply open the app on my phone and hit the alarm button (also looks like a volume button on the screen above). One feature I had to turn off was the automatic alarm. If my keys were too far away from my phone, the alarm would sound. Since I don't keep my phone in my purse 24/7, that was definitely a no.

For more information on the PagerTag, click here for their website. You can also follow them on the following social media outlets:

• Facebook
• Twitter
• Pinterest 

The PagerTag can be purchased directly from the BeetsBLU website or Amazon! 

Overall, I like this product and would recommend it to anyone who has a hard time keeping track of their keys, valuables, or any smaller objects that are easily misplaced!

Thanks, BeetsBLU!
