This piece of gear is not necessarily “scary,” “mysterious,” or “uncommon,” but definitely overlooked. Drumroll, please… A STOPWATCH!!! And I’m not talkiing about the type that your third-grade gym teacher used to use when you did the one-mile run test. I am talking about a really cool, “techie”, colorful piece of equipment you can wear on your wrist to log seconds and minutes for several types of workouts; Runs, circuit training, and streches are just to name a few. I am not asking you to go out and by a Rolex — in fact, several places sell them for really great prices. For example, I got mine at JC Penny in the jewelry section for five dollars.

I honestly use my stopwatch for just about everything.. including pacing myself for homework. Over the summer, it became a habit to start keeping track of the time with my watch, to the point where I managed my time better and found myself a little more freetime. When purchasing one of these watches, I would never go over $20… it’s college, it’s OKAY to be a little cheap! If you really are looking for quality and a great price, I would recommend amazon.com. When looking at their site, here are a couple of examples I found for both men and women — nothing fancy, but they will definitely do the job. Browse beyond these links to see what you like!
