It’s a New Year and time for a New Me! As I get a little older I realize how important it is to take care of my mind, body, and soul. Unfortunately I haven’t been paying enough attention to my body so I have to take a more active role in 2014 to make some changes. I use to be an all or nothing girl. I felt I needed to work out hard and often and if I missed a day I just felt like I was letting myself down. There are so many important aspects of my life such as work, family, home, and fitness that I am now learning to find a more realistic balance.
I currently am unable to run or do much jumping due to having a mild case of planter fasciitis. So last year I purchased a bike/elliptical combo machine I just haven’t gotten motivated to use it. I’ve always needed something to motivate me a reason to get up and get moving. Nothing gets you moving like MUSIC. Not the slow calming relaxing music but the heart pumping jumping music. However I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been working out and accidentally pulled my earbuds out of my ears.
Studies have shown that music can increase the intensity and duration of a workout by as much as 15%. Unfortunately, most people miss out on those benefits because their earphones hurt and fall out during active use. yurbuds was founded in 2008 by an Ironman Triathlete and a 24-time marathoner in response to that problem. Our products are ergonomically designed for comfort and exceptional fit, while providing best-in-class audio quality and durability. yurbuds is passionate about serving our customers and our community. We listen to and learn from our athletes to produce solutions to their needs. We are dedicated to innovating and creatively changing the industry of sport audio. Our goal is to empower athletes through exceptional products and services to help them to push past their barriers, reach new personal bests, and #neverstop.

I also am a avid Fitbit user though I will admit I have not been using it in the last couple of months. However with the new year I’ve decided it is time to jump back in and motivate myself not only with heart pumping music but by tracking my progress. It is usually hard for me to get a lot of steps during the week days because my job means my behind is in a computer chair most of the day. However I have managed of the past year to compile a few badges. That 20K steps in a day was a day in New York!

I never had any luck with ear buds in the past, but I have heard these are quite different!
Colleen says
I think that is about all we use now, wireless is definitely the way to go.
Shell Feis says
I always have issues with earbuds so those yurbuds look like a dream come true for me!
Colleen says
I know sometimes ear buds hurt my ears.
Mickey says
Brilliant! I haven’t had good luck with ear buds either – I definitely want to try these.
Colleen says
It seems a lot of people have issues. I know that there are times they bother my ears.
Sarah L says
You need to find something to do that you really like. For me it’s swimming and I do it 3 times a week.
Colleen says
That is great. We are looking to buy a house with a pool it would be a nice way to get in some exercise in the hot Florida sun.
Rachel @ Following In My Shoes says
I have a pair of yurbuds and I ADORE THEM — they are the BEST earphones I’ve ever, ever owned.
Hope your planter fasciitis eases soon!
Colleen says
Thanks I have yet to find anything that really helps it much other than staying off my feet which would work if I could take a month off of work and just blog LOL.
Kathleen says
It is hard to pass up a coupon, especially one for something that rarely gives discounts. Definitely going to be using this one.
Colleen says
Always nice to save a little when you can.
TerriAnn @ Driving Mama says
I’m really curious as to how these ‘lock’ in place. If they work that good, it’d be a good investment for me. It’s hard to find wireless earphones that work well for those wearing glasses.
LyndaS says
Those are so cool. I think they would be great to use with my iPhone so that I can hear better.
Colleen says
I agree. I don’t have any but would love to try them. My son is always needing a new pair of ear buds.
