The Fitness Tech Podcast #8 Best Buy Does Fitness? Special K Diet

FitnessTechCarrieJamie and Jim again come together to talk Fitness Tech!  We discuss Best Buy deciding to enter into the fitness market by dedicating space in 600 stores to sell fitness equipment and as well set aside space for users to try it out.  Seems that Best Buy is responding to slumping sales.  Would you buy fitness equipment from a big box technology store?  Leave us a comment and let us know.

We talked a bit about sports programming on Universal Sports.  The link to the Ironman program that Jim talked about is http://www.universalsports.com/news/article/newsid=495462.html#aussies+double+ironman+kona

Jamie covered some info on Fad diets.  She gives some good advice on how to build a healthy diet for those trying something for the new year.  We looked at the Special K Challenge website as a way to build a custom diet.  Fad diet or not?
