BioTrainer

A handy weight loss device with a pedometer and calorie counter in one.


BACKGROUND

BioTrainer is a new weight loss tool that offers scientifically-proven technology to help you lose weight. BioTrainer is a compact device that clips to your clothing and accurately monitors and records your daily activity. No matter what it is you're doing during the day, BioTrainer will capture the calories burned, amount of time spent moving and weight gained or lost every single day.

Part of its mission is to serve as a constant reminder to spend more time exercising, parking farther away from the door, taking the stairs or even doing chores you wouldn't ordinarily do. It can be that extra motivator you've been needing to increase your activity and burn more calories. It is endorsed by fitness and weight loss guru, Denise Austin.

PRO

-Biotrainer can motivate you to move more -Small and compact -Fairly accurate -Features an online food journal which studies show is an effective tool in weight loss

CON

-May not be a long-term solution to staying active

DIET and NUTRITION

When you purchase the BioTrainer, you also receive access to the BioTrainer Nutritional Program which is an online food diary. You log in what you ate and how much you ate and the program gives you an analysis of how many calories you consumed in addition to fat, carbohydrate and protein grams. It also features a system that monitors the levels of vitamins and minerals you are consuming and measures this against what you should be consuming. You compare the amount of calories you are consuming to the amount you are expending via your BioTrainer device. This helps you create a customized and accurate understanding of you can meet your weight loss goals.

EXERCISE

The BioTrainer does not provide a specific exercise program to follow but it does contain the BioTrainer Monitoring System. This online program gives you the tools you need to track your weight loss progress. By entering your weight and level of caloric need upon registration, you can see your fitness progress and assess your objectives and goals. Each day the caloric information is inputted and is then tracked by a graph, which details daily results and automatically calculates whether you’re gaining or losing weight. By monitoring your weight loss progress you’re able to focus on your objective and stay motivated.

CONCLUSION

The BioTrainer is a small device that gets clipped to your clothing and tracks your activity level throughout the day. The device also includes an online monitoring system and nutrition program that calculates how many calories you are burning and how many calories you are consuming. By having the constant awareness of your activity level being monitored, you are supposed to have more motivation to increase how much you exercise and move. Studies show that having constant feedback which holds you accountable to your actions, makes you more inclined to stay on track with your weight loss goals.

Thumbs Down

The BioTrainer is useless. IF you can keep it attached (it keeps falling off the waistband) it only works if you are doing hard aerobics. Won't work if you're weight training, yoga, and won't work for biking because your torso doesn't move DO NOT waste your money posted Mar 4th, 2009 7:22 pm

this doesn't seem like it would be that beneficial - it probably doesn't work that well. I say its collecting dust within weeks. posted Oct 5th, 2008 9:52 pm

Like Amy, I found customer service at biotrainer dot com to be non-existent. Do yourself a favor, write this one off as a loss and go buy the one they use on Biggest Loser. posted Apr 17th, 2008 7:08 am

I have been trying to contact their customer service for 2 weeks. No one will return my phone calls or emails. Anyone know how to get an activation number for their website? My Bio Trainer suddenly started doing its daily reset at noon instead of midnight. ARGH! posted Mar 4th, 2008 12:07 pm
