"Technology helps boost fitness, sexual health"

Technology and fitness is the topic that that my google alerts website led me to. Click here for the website!
If you have ever seen the movie Wall-E, you may be familiar with this picture:
This is what people think about when they hear the words "fitness" and "technology" in the same sentence. Although it's true that "couch potatoes" are becoming a trend, technology can actually help people trying to get into shape. There a lot of devices that can help you keep track of steps walked, calories burned, calorie intake, etc. I know that in the past members of my family have used such technology, and it can help you as you work out, especially if you are embarrassed or tired of having to write down your progress where it could easily get lost.
Another thing that technology is helping with is in the teen world. Nowadays if a teen girl or guy has a question about sex, they might just go online instead of asking a parent or friend. Even though the internet has a lot of false information, not all websites are lies. Girls can also keep track of things like their menstrual cycle on a smart phone, and it can help you keep that part of your life more private.
