One of the biggest challenges when buying a treadmill is figuring out how to fit it into your living space. That’s where companies like WalkingPad and the X25 Foldable Treadmill come in handy. Designed with small spaces in mind, this treadmill offers a double-fold design that allows it to be easily stored.

During Apple’s iPhone 16 event, the Apple Watch Series 10 was announced with changes ranging from an increased screen size to sleep apnea detection. While these improvements are certainly welcome, it’s hard not to be a little disappointed given the Apple Watch Series 10 is still missing a critical health and fitness feature found on most sports watches: reliable Heart Rate Variability (HRV) tracking.

The Vitruvian Trainer+, a smart strength device capable of loading weights up to 440lbs, is currently testing a brand new lifting mode named ‘Echo’. We have been testing its beta version and so far it has been an impressive display to how advanced the Vitruvain Trainer+ has become.

In real-time, ‘Echo’ mode is able to adjust the weight of each rep relative to your effort. Given how quick and smooth this new mode on Vitruvian is able to adjust the weight, it feels like a new standard that has yet to be met by its competitors like Tonal and Speediance.
