What’s Your Connected Fitness Routine?

The calendar is approaching summer, presenting an excellent opportunity to get outside and be active, especially for those of us who spend our days behind computer screens.

One of the gifts that technology has given us is the ability to train smarter. Apps such as Fitocracy and devices such as FitBit and Nike FuelBand enable us to better understand our workouts, and track our progress and goals. And social media can be a useful tool for keeping us on track, as well. Never before has it been possible to have so many people available keeping you accountable.

Of course, there’s more than one way to do this, so along with our partners at CNN iReport, we want you to show us how you add an element of technology to your fitness routine. Here’s how you can get involved.

• Take a photo or video that shows your workout.
• Take a photo or video that shows us what technology you’re using to supplement your workout.
• Upload your photos to iReport (you can get started by clicking the button at the bottom of this post). In the text, make sure you describe your fitness routine, explaining how the technology you’re using helps you stay on track or achieve your goals.

We can’t wait to be inspired by you. The deadline for submissions is Monday, June 11. The best responses could be featured on Mashable and CNN.
