Also, my iPhone with its case takes up a lot of real estate in a pants pocket, whereas the 1.5-inch-by-1.5-inch Vibe goes unnoticed. Why not just use your phone, you ask? Well, that’s my mobile office, and once I start tinkering on it, I get caught up in work.
It’s become such a staple of my workouts that, if I realize I forgot it when I get to the gym, I immediately return home to pick it up. Once the songs are synced, the Vibe doesn’t need to stay connected to the phone or internet. It has about five hours of battery life and Bluetooth compatibility for connecting to a phone or earbuds, and it syncs to my Spotify Premium account (through my phone) to hold about a thousand songs, which I toggle through using the simple five-button interface. The device is a matchbook-size, 0.8-ounce Spotify music player. I’m not complaining though, because I have a secret weapon: the Mighty Vibe ($86). I make do lifting kettlebells in my garage or on my back deck, running around my neighborhood, and working out at a Snap Fitness down the street from my house (something I’d never have considered when I had more free time). As the father of a one-year-old, I’m no longer able to enjoy the long aimless runs, bike rides, and ski tours that used to keep me in shape, and I’ve put on some pounds as a result.
This New Year, I resolved to be more consistent with my fitness regimen.
