So my fellow gadget geeks, what are your recommendations for great fitness apps, gear, ect? I find that a new app or something cool from amazon tends to help me kick things up a notch. But there is also a lot of crap that could be a total waste of money.

Apps I use and would highly recommend:

MFP (duh...)
Zombies, Run! And Zombies, Run! 5k - couch to 5k training program, no thanks... Oh with zombies you say? Call me Runner 5!
Run Keeper - weirdly I don't use this for running, I have zombies for that, but it is fantastic for bike rides.
Live Strong MyQuitCoach- not directly related to weight loss, but I quit smoking 3 months ago and this app helped a lot!

Gear recommendations:

Fila Skeletoes- I always used to joke if you see me running look for the bear... But now I walk/jog/run 5-6 miles a day. I really hate wearing shoes, but these feel great, much like running barefoot. Since they fit my feet so snugly I'm not having the chafing issues on my feet that I have had with every other pair of running shoes I've owned.

Novara Forza- on top of jogging, bike riding has become an important part of my fitness journey. I think this bike has been top notch. I've taken it out for hundreds of miles of cycling this summer and it will tear over most kinds of trail. My wife has the lady version and loves hers a lot as well.

So those are my picks of must haves, tell me yours so I can go check them out! Bonus points if your gear recommendations are vegan as I try and lead as much of a cruelty free lifestyle as possible.
