Sportline pedometers vary from simple mechanical models to the highend digital varieties that keep track of the time you exercise and even how many calories you've burned.

No bells and whistles here, not even an electronic readout, just a lowtech mileage counter for the budget walker.

The 360 model, for instance, has two digital display lines, and measures mileage, steps, speed, calories, exercise time and displays the current time, too. It's a new design that's easy to use and easy to see, making progress checks during your workout a piece of cakeas long at it's lowfat.

The Talking 343 Step counter is one of the most interesting Sportline pedometers: with a touch of a button, it will tell you your step total, distance, and the time of day. It also comes with seven melodies of varying tempos that change when your walking speed changes. Sportline has all sorts of pedometers for all kinds of people and exercise programs.
