Imbaleki esemsebenzini kunye nesixhobo sayo sokulandelela ukomelela komzimba akusekho ilahlekileyo. Eyona idumileyo nesebenzayo ibonakala ngathi yi-Apple Watch, nangona kunjalo, iimveliso ezinje ngeFitbit zikwaphilisa ngayo kwaye zilungile. Sifuna ukunciphisa umzimba kwaye into yokuqala esiyenzayo kukuya kwivenkile yezixhobo zemidlalo ukuze sifumane izihlangu eziqaqambe kakhulu kwintengiso, emva koko siye kwivenkile yeelektroniki zabathengi, lixesha lokuba sikhethe eso sixhobo esiya kuthi sibale amanyathelo ethu, iikhalori nezinye izinto, kodwa Ngaba izixhobo zokulandela umkhondo womzimba ziyasebenza ngokwenene ekulahlekeni kwesisindo? Impendulo ngokolu phononongo lolunye: Hayi.
Olu phononongo luqale kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, nangona bebelulungiselela ukusukela ngo-2010. Abantu abangama-470 abalandele ukutya okunekhalori ezisezantsi kunye nerejimeni yomthambo kule minyaka mibini bathathe inxaxheba kuyo. Isiqingatha sabathathi-nxaxheba sasinesixhobo sokulandela umkhondo womzimba, ngelixa esinye isiqingatha sasingenaso. Kuthiwe kwaye kwenziwe, iziphumo zokuqala zaqala ukufika. Ngelixa iqela elinezixhobo zokulandela umkhondo liphulukene nomndilili we-5,8Kg, abanye abathathi-nxaxheba kuphela yi-3,4Kg. Yintoni enika ukholo olungileyo lokuba zingasebenzi njani ezi zixhobo ukuba into esiyifunayo kukuphulukana nobunzima, injini yokwenyani iya kuba yinjongo kunye namandla ethu.
Ngokutsho kweengcali, isayikholoji yeyona nto iphambili ekulahlekeni kobunzima, ngakumbi kunezinye izinto ezongezelelweyo. Isifundo sipapashiwe kwiJAMA (Ijenali yoMbutho Wezonyango waseMelika) kwaye ungasifunda koku LINK. Ngokuqinisekileyo, asizukuphika ukuba bayasinceda ukulawula ngcono iiparameter ekufuneka sibambelele kuzo, kodwa kwelinye icala, asizukuncipha ukuba asiyenzi eyethu indima, ngokwasemzimbeni. Olu hlobo lwesixhobo lunokuba luncedo ngakumbi kubantu abaneemeko zentliziyo kunye nezifo, okanye iimbaleki zobungcali. Ukuba into oyifunayo ilahlekile, yenza nje ukutya okufanelekileyo kunye nokuzilolonga rhoqo.
