Go beyond basic activity tracking with Blast Motion, a wearable fitness tracker with specially calibrated sensors for golf, baseball, softball, basketball, action sports and general athletic performance like CrossFit and volleyball.

 

 

Blast Motion’s device is the size of a quarter, making it easy for users to bring along and utilize the product wherever they are traveling.

 

Long gone are the days when you wrote your reps down to keep track of them. Blast Motion clips on to your waistband, or the end of a golf club or bat and keeps track of metrics like swing speed, vertical height, acceleration, hang time and rotation.

 

 

To make the most of the device, users can film themselves with a smartphone. The Blast app’s motion-tracking sensor pairs select action clips with real-time data overlaid into the video. With the app, you can use the data to analyze your metrics and improve your performance and also share your stats and clips with friends on social media.

 

Blast Motion is priced at $149.95 and is available on Amazon. The Blast app is designed for iPhone 6/6+, iPhone 5, iPad 3/iPad Mini 2 and iPod Touch 5th generation or newer. Learn more at blastmotion.com.
