If you know me, you know I’m not a big fan of New Year’s resolutions. It’s probably because of my fear of failure and thus I prefer not to commit to a resolution I am not 100% sure I can achieve and maintain. While I didn’t officially announce New Year’s resolutions this year, this year is different. I started my personal and very quiet New Year’s resolutions in December when I followed up with my physician’s request to see 
a neurosurgeon and the neurosurgeon’s request for me to see a Yoga Therapist – amongst other professional physical therapy types. I have been told by my physician and other doctors for a few years that spine surgery is a very real possibility for me and if I want to reduce that possibility I need to move forward, quickly forward, with a few types of therapy including yoga therapy, aqua therapy, dry needling, and trigger point massage. In addition to these therapies, I need to exercise regularly, even if it is a slow-paced walk or going up and down our steps several times consecutively several times a day. Sounds like a blast right? Well… it is when I have my music or my podcast playing through my headphones. Even though because of my injury I can’t pick up the pace to the beat of a good pop song, upbeat music or a super geeky tech podcast keeps me going for at least 30 minutes a couple times a day.
If you’re like me and you have a fitness or physical therapy goal you’re working to achieve and know the added boost of good music, an audiobook or podcast helps you get through the walk, run, steps, or strenuous workout, visit your local Best Buy store, the place to shop for headphones. You will find dozens of brands, styles, fits, and price ranges. One pair that I particularly find very cool are the Jabra Sport Pulse Fitness Headphones.

Lately I’ve been listening to music on my HTC OneX+ smartphone that comes with Beats Audio. Beats Audio delivers studio-quality sound, the way the artist intended for listeners to hear their music, with or without headphones. The music just sounds authentic. It’s really quite amazing. You have to hear it to believe it.
