Smart Scales

Sure, it sounds risky to give someone scales as a gift, but the wellness warrior isn’t just anyone. The latest scales can do a whole lot more than keeping track of weight including tracking BMI and full body composition from body fat to muscle mass. Some even have Wi-Fi connectivity and an accompanying app on your smart phone. Withings and Beurer are ahead of the game in this regard.

The scales screen displays a trend of the last eight weigh-ins for a progress snapshot – and what fitness fanatic doesn’t love to watch progress? Up to eight users can track their weight and achieve their individual goals, so you might benefit from this gift, yourself.
