Soleus sports watch


Having worn and purchased many sports watches in the past, I have found the Soleus sport watch to be one of the best watches, and one of the more affordable ones, when considering the features it has to offer the wearer. Depending on the model, whether it is a men’s or women's watch, and the features you need, the watch can be purchased from as low as $39 onwards up to over $100. But, of course, the more features you are looking for, the more it is going to cost. In other words, if you need GPS navigation, stop clocks, a built-in pedometer, and other types of training devices and features, the price will most likely be commensurate with these features.

I have personally used the Soleus Men’s Ultra Sole 35-Lap
sport watch, which cost me $89.50, and am extremely satisfied with what it has to offer, especially considering the price, and the fact that most other brands of sports watches do not offer nearly as many features, or as clean a look, and are far pricier. The current Soleus I wear has a black hard plastic band, with yellow inner lining, and around the digital face also has a yellow ring, and the buttons are also yellow. However, there are different color options you can choose from.

As far as the features, my current watch has a GPS navigation system, stop clocks, lap split timers, the ability to program my workouts online and transfer the data on my computer in order to track progress, the ability to save up to 20 workouts, a pedometer to count steps, and has a digital set up, making it easy to read the time, and easy to read workout stats. It also has a very friendly user interface, is easy to set up the timers, and offers the ability to change time settings to different countries, or different time zones.

Overall the Soleus Men’s sports watch offers many features I was looking for in a watch, especially the GPS device, which offers great maps. It also allows you to preset workout runs, and it is a much cheaper option than other big name sports watches, which are not going to offer nearly as many features, or as many design styles as the Soleus. When you add in the low price point, Soleus sports watches seem like a “can’t lose” purchase.

The HEAD YouTek IG Speed Midplus: Ultimate Racquet

Here is our second HEAD YouTek Review. Read our review of the HEAD YouTek IG Instinct to get an in-depth comparison.

In my experience, when trying to find the right tennis racquet to use for a high-performance game, nothing beats the comfortable, HEAD YouTek IG Speed tennis racquet.

I struggled trying to find the one racquet that would provide me with the speed, durability and grip that every great tennis player needs to play a victorious game. (Not to mention a racquet that was also lightweight!)

At first, I had a hard time believing that a tennis racquet this perfect even existed.

But then I found the HEAD YouTek IG Speed tennis racquet.

I was truly captivated by its remarkable features and capabilities. It has many qualities that I need, such as its aggressive play, which gives every tennis player the ability to dominate the court.

As I was playing with the HEAD YouTek IG Speed tennis racquet I noticed that the head was made of really strong string patterns that caused this racquet to have control, power, spin and feel—from wherever you are on the court. This 18x20 string combination makes this racquet easily one of the most elite out there. When I was at the baseline I took a high-arched swing at full-length and in this swing the tennis ball stayed in control with its 5 pts HL weight. Another great component of this spectacular racquet is the string casing, which gives adequate bite to add heavy spin, resulting in flat, controllable shots. This well-crafted racquet provides the maneuverability that any decent tennis player needs to perform well against any opponent.

In my honest opinion, this HEAD racquet is ideal for providing you with the best touch-shots at net. Lastly, with its swing weight at 314 you will be astonished at how fast you can move around the court, giving you the upper hand on your opponents. The length at 27in / 69cm gives this racquet the excess space to insure that you hit the tennis ball with every swing.

Be prepared, this brilliantly designed racquet will change the way you play tennis forever. You will never want to pick up your old tennis racquet, when you feel the sleek, slim craftsmanship of this professional player racquet.
