Yoga Studio
Technology, whether in our hands or at our PC, is not always about distractions, entertainment, or gaming. Using computers also to improve our health is always an exciting venue that lends itself to more scrutiny.
Today, we're taking a look at Yoga Studio, which is one of the biggest names in yoga education. Yoga Studio is a top app on iOS, but it is now also available as a universal app for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile. New to the world of yoga? So am! Let's see what Yoga Studio is and why you want to take a look!
Download (opens in new tab)
What it is
Yoga is one of the oldest "physical, mental, and spiritual" disciplines going back a couple of thousand years to India. Today, the practice has exploded in Western culture as people look for various ways to cope with daily stress and fatigue.
Yoga Studio is an app for Windows 10 PCs and Windows 10 Mobile phones that let you jump into this world at a beginner level all the way up through advanced.
The app lets users pick the class, level, and style (e.g. for runners, or for those with back issues) and teaches you through HD video tutorials how to do the poses though a full-featured class.
Users can schedule classes through their synced calendars to keep on track and progress through the various levels. More advanced users can even create custom classes by mixing and matching preferred poses, styles, and levels.
Why it's awesome
Since Yoga has become all the rage in Western countries, it is not very hard to find a local studio to join. However, like all classes you will be required to fork over monthly membership dues, attend classes as prescribed times on their schedule and, of course, travel to the location. Ironically, spending money, making class time and the travel to and from the studio may add to your stress while the class itself attempts to undo the frustrations of your day.
Yoga Studio lets you work at your pace, wherever and whenever. Normally Yoga Studio runs $3.99, but until March 20th you'll be able to download the app for free — no ads, no nickel-and-diming, just all the classes you'll need to get your yoga on.
Through the app, you can download the HD videos to your phone or PC, add a class to your schedule for a reminder and explore the world of yoga at your own pace in the comfort of your home.
Wait, yoga?
Personally speaking, I have wanted to take yoga for a few years now. I regularly lift weights and do cardio but as I have aged my flexibility (which was always poor) is starting to catch up to me.
Yoga Studio lets me learn and explore this new world right in my apartment without any awkward moments.
Case in point, a few years ago I pulled my back doing simple house chores. Once you do a strain like that you are always susceptible to restraining that injury and in fact, I have done so numerous times. And while I use a standing desk I cannot say my posture is all that I want it to be as I often slump my shoulders. Doing simple stretches in the morning and after working out has helped, but these were always at my discretion, unguided and frankly, uninformed.
Taking yoga is supposed to alleviate not only stress but improve flexibility, help runners, people with back issues and, in general, improve your overall fitness. What many have perceived as a 'girl thing' is now much more widely accepted as common practice for those concerned about health and well-being.
Still, I cannot say that going out and taking a full-fledged yoga class was on the top of my to-do list. Going by myself to a class or fitting it in with my crazy, near non-stop work schedule is also not practical.
Yoga Studio lets me learn and explore this new world right in my apartment without any awkward public moments. Hey, we're not all strong people who feel comfortable doing these things! At the very least, I am using Yoga Studio as a stepping ladder. Once I'm comfortable doing this and have the basics down, maybe I'll go and find a true teacher. It's all about moving in the right direction and for four bucks I am not risking a whole lot here.

Yoga Studio on Windows 10
The Yoga Studio apps for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile are true Universal Windows Platforms apps written natively for Microsoft's platform. Running the app on your phone is the same as on your Surface.
The app is very straightforward with a nice introduction tutorial that can be re-visited at any time under settings. From there, you can navigate through the various collections of classes, including essentials for ranging from beginners to advanced, sun salutations, deep relaxation meditations, quick fix yoga, and yoga specifically for runners and back pain.
Within each collection, there are subsets including Ability, Focus, and Duration each with a subgroup of classes.
Users can also skip to just Poses, which is like a visual glossary of the various articulations in yoga along with descriptions, benefits, modifications, advanced variations and things to be careful about when attempting.
All the classes have an associated HD video for the duration of the course. These videos are downloaded to the device and under Settings a user can see how much space Yoga Studio is occupying with these videos and with a touch of a button clear it out as well. Downloaded classes will show up in the Studio section for quick access to subsequent retakes.
Don't like your phone's small display? All videos can also be cast as well so that with your phone you can cast the class to your TV, Xbox One, Roku, or using the Microsoft Display Adapter.
Likewise, all types can be added to your calendar and will appear on the app's built-in calendar for quick reference. Since the app integrates with Outlook Calendar, the information can sync to all your devices and serve as a quick reminder.
Yoga Studio features a rather simple but smart Live Tile that reminds you of your next scheduled class. There is also a detailed search engine to locate specific poses and classes from within the app.
Under settings, there is a very nice allotment of choice to make the app tailored to your desires. For instance, you can change the audio volume. You can also have a narrator (teacher) talk you through the class, just a calling out of the pose (for more advanced users) and for those who have memorized the class you can just hear a chime that lets you know to shift. You can even control the ambient background volume and choose between things like a flute, waves, birds, guitar or none.
For those concerned about cellular data and usage you can optionally turn off downloads when on metered connections (it is off by default).
Both versions of the app run very well on Windows 10 and Mobile with no issues, conflicts, or instability issues. The app maintains a very high 4.9 (out of 5) rating on the Store with very positive feedback as well.
Wrapping it up
Yoga is both a very personal and intriguing hobby and exercise to begin. If you have thought about taking yoga, but simply do not have the time, the money or are just not sure if it is right for you then you need to try Yoga Studio for Windows 10.
Yoga Studio for Windows 10 and Mobile is well designed, easy to follow, well-paced and as a high level of production.
Whether you are new to yoga or have been doing it for years there is something here for everyone and earns a spot on our Windows 10 Gems spotlight!

I would love a Band 2 to help me with the back issues I've been having. I need physio pretty regularly and it's hard to keep up with exercise regimens without a good reminder and a way to track them. #sweepstakes
-
I'm working as a software consultant. Although I really like what I'm doing (because I can work on mey different projects with many different clients), I'm really missing exercises. That's the disavantage of the job: you'll be sitting in offices all day long. A Band 2 would force me to do some exercises (like taking stairs instead of a lift) during workign days and on the weekend. To be honest: I'm curious if wearing a Band 2 would force me to do additional exercises. Would be a very interesting experiment and I would for sure post my experiences ;-) #sweepstakes
-
Well, it's interesting to see this article. I just started picking up an exercise regiment. The workouts are starting after losing nearly 80lbs (was at 300lbs). Anyway, having a yoga companion to help stretch and strengthen the core and have it be tracked by the Band 2 would be awesome. Not to mention that this is being written on a Lumia Icon (yes from Verizon ( sad the Lumia 950XL isn't joining their service)).
-

I'd use a MS Band 2 with the TRAINR app that was shown off months ago (I've only gotten up the willpower to use it a few times but I'm sure it's more enjoyable with the Band). I'm also hoping to incorporate Band support in an app I'm developing, and it would be cool to be able to test it on a Band 2. #sweepstakes
-
I would use band 2 in conjunction with my 950 to track my activity during the day and my sleep at night. I play tennis, lift, run, do pilates and would love a way to track all of that. Also the notifications and Cortana integration looks really cool. Plus it tells time and I like wearing a watch. #sweepstakes
-
I'd love one to round out my MS stuff #sweepstakes
-
I had open heart surgery a few years ago and I am diabetic. I need to lose about 75lbs or so. The Microsoft Band 2 would definitely help me with my goals for a healthier life.

If I were to have the Microsoft Band 2, I would of course add support from my applications as a developer for UWP. I would of course put it to use with it's health tracking functionalities. Also, with all of the other new sensors it has compared to the first Microsoft Band, I am blown away. I especially love the new music controls, which I would use quite often as well as Cortana, texting, calling, notifications, etc... Again, thanks for this opportunity Windows Central! #sweepstakes

I'd use it to track my calories during my workouts daily and for tracking my sleep #sweepstakes
-
I don't do Yoga, but I do know that Yogi is smarter than the average bear, and I'm also a fan of Yoda. With a new MS Band 2, track my marathon training I would. I could also track the calories I eat from that stolen pick-a-nick basket. #sweepstakes

#sweepstakes -
Used wife's Fitbit flex but lost interest, since she is a big yoga fan I can both join her and elucidate the greatness of the UWP, and justify a continuum dock in the process. Would also be a great item to take into BWCA this summer. Winning....

#sweepstakes I am a computer scientist and i nead a band 2 to make me get off my computer!!
-
MS Band 2 will replace my Surge. 7 days of battery? yeah right. More like 3 days top, that's with everything off and only about 40 minutes excersise daily (not even with GPS on). With this kind of battery, I'd go with the Band! #sweepstakes
-
I have band version 1. I like it but the erratic and finicky charging drives me crazy at times. I'd like to get a band 2 which will hopefully be much better. I'm a type 2 diabetic and it would hopefully enable me to get in better shape and tame my stress #sweepstakes.

I want the Band 2 to remind me to get up and move around/stretch on a regular schedule while working at my desk all day long. #sweepstakes

Wow! The Band 2 would be a nice replacement for my Band 1. I like my Band 1. More the one year with it. I like the feature set of the Microsoft band. Text, email and Phone call notification work well with Lumia640 on Windows 8.1. But I can NOT trust the band for my workout anymore, most of the time the Band 1 shot down in middle of a training session. 30 minutes. Even the night time monitoring cannot go through an 8 hour night. The battery life is a little more than 24 hours when not using any monitoring feature. Band 2 would be a nice welcome. #sweepstakes
-
I could really use a Microsoft Band 2 for my regime. I walk alot and could use this to keep track! #sweepstakes
-
As I've gotten older I've found that it has become even more important to keep track of my fitness. My doctor would like me to get at least 10,000 steps in per day, this device would be a great way to track it to show him that I am actually doing what he prescribed. A free band would be just what I need. #sweepstakes

How does the band 2 work with the Yoga Studio. Interesting App. Just hard to watch it on the phone or laptop and do it at the same time. #sweepstakes

I need to cover my cold wrists. Also I think the other features the band has are an added bonus. If i cant afford wrist warns I certanly cant afford a wrist warmer/smart watch.

I have never been that health conscious or in shape my whole life. Now that I just finished college I am working hard with my wife to get into shape and lose weight. I've always loved technology and I would love a Microsoft band 2 to help track my progress, motivate me and keep me excited about getting into shape. Having all the data from steps to heart rate and even sun exposure would really help as I love those kinds of random statistics and it always helps motivate me! #sweepstakes

Would love this to help me get less fat! ;) #Sweepstakes

I would mainly improve my health life so that i can enjoy the time with my family and kids. I guess everyone reaches a point where its more important to be with them then do stupid lazy stuff. I would love to find ways to do outside activities with the Band as well. The other thing i would do it show it off at work cause it looks way better than the ones my co workers have etc. #sweepstakes #sweepstakes #ihopeiwin

I have never tried Yoga, but I might give it a try with Yoga Studio. I do dumbell weight lifting for upper body exercise, but could certainly use more flexability. I have a Band 1 but would really like a Band 2 for its added features.#sweepstakes

I would use a band 2 for a number of things. First I would use it to track my sleep. I would like to haven an idea of my heartrate during sleep and the know the amount of restful sleep I get in comparison to the timee in jbed. I also take walks every day for one to three hours and I listen to audible books while I walk.I have had a subscription to audible.com for almost 10 years and I have over 700 books and articles to listen to. With the GPS, elevation, and heart rate tracking I should be able to see where I have walked, how much I have pushed myself and the effect of changes in elevation as I go up and down the hills and the effects of variations in the speed that I walk. #sweepstakes
-
As a college studet I would love to have the Band 2 in order to get back in shape and keep my notifications in check between classes. #sweepstakes

I've been wanting to try out the Band 2 to see how good it is for suplementing data gathered while cycling every week. #sweepstakes

So... This is quite a coincidence: I need a new Band2 and I've been needing to start yoga for years. I own and use the Band1, it's been replaced a few times... But the band itself is simply very irritating. I've been super excited seeing the Band2 but always a challenge setting enough aside to make the purchase. I've been meaning to start yoga for years, the meditation and focus of health... And so each physical endeavor I started we're always driven with technology: Walked miles with FitBit, started cycling with Band1... So if I win the Band2 I'll easily be able to start yoga and lead to better health (app downloaded already!!). It'll also help me introduce yoga and continued better health to my two young kids.
The app is great, the fact it's universal is an added bonus which is why I've been such a fan of all things Windows10. #sweepstakes -
I Would use it to check how much walking do i do on my work, i really wanna know it and brag to my friends about it.. #sweepstakes

Id love a MS Band to tracking my golf game as well as hart rate monitoring during my high intensity cycling sessions. Been looking at getting one since the Band 1 and have never quite pulled the trigger. #sweepstakes

I would use it to track and improve my sleep habits. #sweepstakes

The sleep tracking is a must for me. I have a number of sleep problems, and having this data to share with my doctor (though unofficial) makes life a lot easier in fixing some of the problems. Honestly, the Band 1 has made my nights a heck of a lot better, and it's even more accurate in Band 2! #sweepstakes

I would check my texts while I weightlift like a beast! Obviously doing some Yoga stretching first... #sweepstakes

I would give it to my mom so she can throw away her Apple watch. #sweepstakes

I would use the search engine to locate specific poses and classes from within the app. #sweepstakes

I'm very much a data and visualization kind of person, so being able to track my heart rate, step count, hours of sleep, etc. and actually see it and graph it would give me a big boost in how I care for my body. I have a first gen Band but the rubber is beginning to disintegrate and I don't see it lasting much longer, plus Microsoft seems to have abandoned software updates for it. #sweepstakes
-
To help myself be more active and set goals. #Sweepstakes

If I won the Band 2, maybe I would get off my couch and move once in a while.

Great gem dig, I am in that category as well of wanting to get into a basics class to get more flexibilty and whatever else Yoga has to offer. Plus its free for full access and no Ads, its a no brainer. As for the band 2 I would use it to cycle, play basketball and track my intramural sports with friends and colleagues. I can certainly use it to track my sleep, its horrible and I know I am losing big time in that area. So sign me up #sweepstakes
-
I would use this band to monitor my intake for calories, sodium, fats and cholestrols.

It's been a while since I've taken to the mat, but with summer slowly approaching, now seems like a good time to get back into it. #sweepstakes

With GPS and a barometric sensor, the Band 2 would make a great replacement for a cycling computer #sweepstakes

I have a super busy day, almost no time to move around, so I'm in desperate need of a health regime and better tracking device to help me remember and see progress.

Seeing that I already have (and love) my Microsoft Band 2 (also had the 1) I would auction it off for the American Cancer Society bicycle ride I do. It's called the Pan Ohio Hope Ride. Sure, it's in Ohio, but it's for the ACS's fight agaist cancer, which is everywhere. Having a way to give something back should hopefully get more involved. So, I would really appreciate the Microsoft Band 2. #sweepstakes

I bought a Band 1 thinking that MS would actually update the thing so that I could add my own exercises to it....here's to still hoping that maybe MS will update the Band 2. Love the design and functionality of both and I'd really like to improve my workouts even more with a Band 2 as well as get the UV monitor. #sweepstakes

The Microsoft Band 2 would be perfect for me. And, I know Yoga Studio would be a program I would embrace. Rendered partially disabled after back surgery, Yoga was recommended as a really healthy thing I can do. The "band" has many features I would love, as it would help me track progress, as well as keep me on track to a more healthy lifestyle. Thanks for the opportunity to win this wonderful prize. #sweepstakes

Other than the fitness tracking which is obvious I really like the idea of tracking sleep and an alarm that wakes you up at the right time (in the sleep cycle, so you're not tired). It's also nice to know who an email or text is from without taking the phone out of your pocket. Eventually I think all of my family members will be wearing one... #sweepstakes

Use it for running and my workouts at the gym. #SWEEPSTAKES

I would use it for tracking my walks #sweepstakes

I have a desk job, and tend to get so wrapped up in my work, that I don't even notice that I haven't gotten up in several hours. This would be nice for reminding me to get up and do something physical (stand and stretch, walk down the hall, etc). Comment posted as a #sweepstakes entry

I love the story about the Yoga Studio apps. I've wanted to try Yoga, but I don't drive and all the classes are not convenient to ge to, using the bus system in our town would take me all day to get to a class and home so being able to try it at home would be perfect. And having a Microsoft Band 2 wouldn't hurt either. I posted this comment as a sweepstakes entry. Thank you

I would use Band 2 for firstly to get back my form, from 70 to 80 kg again. My target is also to tracking and improving my sleep (I'm sleeping very bad sometimes), check my pulse because in exercieses the intensity is for every body is different. #sweepstakes
-
I have an arthritic relative who's been advised to do yoga. I'd use Microsoft Band to health and fitness goals I've set, monitor my heartrate and calorie burn. Not that I have trouble sleeping "when asleep" but I'd be curious as to what my sleep quality is. #sweepstakes

I have just started to exercise more and cut back on portion sizes. Trying to drop to a more healthy weight after my dad was diagnosed with diabetes. Having the MS Band 2 would be a useful (and fun) way to track that better. Heck, maybe it would motivate me to try harder too. #sweepstakes
-
I would use it to track exercise/workouts and hopefully keep me on track better than previous esercise attempts. #sweepstakes
-
I would use it to count my steps and check my notifications.

The Band will be great to have. I recently started a new workout regime, and it will be great to have a device that accurately measures heart rate. Rather than relying on machines that are so inaccurate. #sweepstakes. This will be the perfect companion.
-
I will use the band to get back in the shape that I was 2 years ago. With a little bit of a health concern, I discovered that using technology to track my efforts made me want to do more. I used a Fitbit, but it just broke and didn't have enough information (with the exception of the social aspect). In any case, the band will really help reach my health goal :) #sweepstakes
-
Having long suffered from poor sleep, I would most like to get detailed reports from the Microsoft Band 2 about how much I move at night, how many times I awaken, and my heart's pulse during the night. I also like the alarm "flexibility," which allows for a window of time to be set before and after the alarm, and depending on when the best time to awaken you is, the alarm will ring. #sweepstakes

I need a Band to evaluate the effectiveness of my regular morning workout - b-ball with the guys at the YMCA. #sweepstakes

I AM A BLOB!!! I despise working out, but needed to do something about my health because I am in my mid 30's and suffered from high blood pressure. Last summer, I started eating better, and working out doing the Insanity program. The pounds melted off, but after 8 weeks, I stopped, and gained some pounds back. The biggest thing for me is motivation and interest. Working out is boring, and I often lack motivation. Having this band will help keep me active for myself, and my future kids. #SWEEPSTAKES

I would use it to measure the distance and heart while I run on weekends and I would also use it as a notification gadget when I cannot reach my phone while I am busy at work.

Use it for Nightly sleep cycles and golf. #sweepstakes

A Band2 would definitely keep my motivated to get back in shape after many years "off." You make good points about why yoga is a good idea as well... my back has not aged well. Worth considering! Thanks. #sweepstakes

Well to be frank, me and the wife let ourselves go, and I believe the Band will motivate us to push ourselves. We are retro gamers, and trying to beat our scores is in our blood.

I would use the band 2 to track all my Crossfit workouts. I would be able to upload custom workouts and benefit from all the data provided by the Microsoft health app such as time it took to complete each exercise. I would also use it to begin a Yoga routine of course. I hope lady luck is on my side to win this give away. #sweepstatkes.

The last Microsoft device i would have to complete my device list :). Band 2 appears to be a great device to track my activies all day long ... and not only: it works also during my sleep. Cool! #sweepstakes

I don't have a Band and believe it would make me accountable. Too many times I lack in my accountability when it comes to physical activity.I posted this comment as a Sweepstakes entry.

I am quite attached to my Band 2 - glad I switched from my series of Fitbits to this. Since getting it, my wife has been interested in getting one. Winning one would be perfect, as I have no other means of getting one for my wife anytime soon. #sweepstakes
-
I regularly work out 3 times a week, including a run as well as strength training. I would use the Band 2 to track distance/time on the run and heart rate/time on the strength training. #sweepstakes
-
I own a FitBit One but wanted heart rate monitor and cool features that integrate nicely with my Windows Phone. I heard good comments from people who owns a Microsoft Band 2. With the Band 2, I can treat it like a watch / info center instead of occationally checking my FitBit One. #sweepstakes

Fantastic watch!! Beneficial in helping to have a healthier lifestyle!! #sweepstakes

-
I would use the Microsoft Band 2 to track and improve my golf game. It would allow me to focus on my game by allowing me to keep my phone in my golf bag. With automatic shot tracking, it will be able to highlight the areas of my game that I need to work on. Also, I would use it to track my workouts and my sleep activity. #sweepstakes
-
Running everyday and doing with Microsoft Band 2 would be awesome and more interesting #sweepstakes

A Microsoft Band 2 would definitely be a "step" up from my Omron pedometer. :-) #sweepstakes

I would be thrilled to win one of these. The golf stuff sounds awesome, and I'd love to try it out. I wouldn't mind seeing it work with Xbox Fitness as well, and I like any chance I get to test technology I haven't before. This post is my entry into the sweepstakes.

-
Hello. I have a very labor intensive job at a shipping department of a hotel so I always wondered how many steps I take. The Microsoft band will assist me with that. I'm sure I can figure out more uses with the Microsoft band and combine that with my job too. #sweepstakes

I would use it to keep track of my sleep and exercise to stay healthy! #sweepstakes

-
I would love a Band 2 to help keep track of all of my fitness statistics during the day and be able to see my notifications while coaching. #sweepstakes
-
I currently use a Fitbit, so I would imagine it would complete replace it to track my movement. Love to hike and walk around town so I like seeing my activity level. Forces me to move when I don't want to. This band really seems a lot cooler to wear. #Sweepstakes
-
I currently own the original band and wear it everyday. I like the app but love the detailed website. The gps is great but I keep eyeing the band 2 and its sleeker build and added sensors. I'll probably get it in the fall when Microsoft announces the newest band.
-
#sweepstakes I and focused on my job, the Microsoft Band 2 will get me moving.
-
I would use the microsoft band 2 on my hiking as well as my yoga practice. I'm sure I will find allot more to do with it.
-
I've been wanting to get my hands on the band 2. I would spend some time at first playing with the sleep tracking, but my main use would be to track my daily activity, as a watch, and as an accessory to my phone. Over time, I would like to use it as an aid in maintaining my health. I posted this comment as a Sweepstakes entry. #sweepstakes
-
Who wouldn't want a Band? The device that tracks your sleep. The one that hugs your arm. The one that provides instant emails. Even exercise details. I'd be more than happy to take the Band in this #sweepstakes! :)
-
I would use the Band 2 especially for exercise and to get back into shape after knee surgery this month, and I would love to try yoga! #sweepstakes
-
I would use it to kickstart my long-overdue fitness plan. #sweepstakes
-
I love the more interactive aspect of this band compared to just having the steps being counted. Although, trying to get a new high score of daily steps is always fun. Hopefully I win this #sweepstakes
-
the band 2 will help in my training for my first marathon this end of the year ! wish me luck ! #sweepstakes
-
fitbits are suposed to be the best
-
Winning this would be sweet. #sweepstakes
-
I would use it while playing basketball. #sweepstakes
-
I will use Band 2 for the step and stair countes along with the workout feature. I need more variety! Thanks! #sweepstakes
-
As a yogi and a long time user if this app on iOS I was excited when I discovered this had been brought to Windows 10 a few weeks ago. I've been using it since on my phone and pc and can vouch for it as a great yoga app in general and by far the best on the windows store and most mobile app stores. Would be a great compliment to the Microsoft band.
-
Heh, I could formulate some kind of complex ritual in which the Band factors in... but let's be honest. I'll slap it on my wrist, use it like a watch / text reader for most of the day, and then check out my workout stats once I'm done working out. The best User Experience is one where the device does not dramatically alter the experience... unless it's supossed to... and a band should not. ;P #sweepstakes
-
Give it to my daughter so she can keep a history of her walks. I posted this comment as a Sweepstakes entry
-
I too want to lose my weight and to be fit! But I didn't used this app for tha last. Just now I installed this and working super smooth. Wow it's awesome! Thank you! Loved it!! #sweepstakes
-
I want to exercise more and a microsoft band would really help #sweepstakes
-
I would use the band 2 multiple ways in my fitness regime. First I would track my steps in a day and compare my down days to my more active days to really motivate me to get moving even on down days (I'm also really curious how much steps I take in a basketball game). Second I'd make use of the sleep tracking, because ive had issues sleeping for years, so the information it provides would be very valuable. Finally I would cancel a membership I have to a bootcamp fitness class and instead use the band curated workouts, specifically the HIIT type workouts #sweepstakes
-
Going to use it to see how well it links to my phone #sweepstakes
-
I'd use the Microsoft Band 2 for my sleeping, biking, and overall functionality it offers. #sweepstakes

Those MS band 2's look very cool #sweepstakes
-
I would use it to track everything I do. #sweepstakes
-
One of thebig draw cards for me is that the band is the most accurate fitness around. There is nothing worse than incorrect data for long runs or bike rides. But as an everyday device, it'll change how I use my phone. Basically, my phone will stay on silent while the band is on my wrist. No more loud obnoxious ring tones at work. No more rude social situations where I need to reach into my pocket for my phone when I get some sort of notification. This would be an absolute dream come true for me. #sweepstakes
-
The Microsoft Band 2 is the foundation of me deciding to get my health back. I've been putting off working out and running until I can afford a Band 2. I know that sounds stupid, but it's honest. I would most definitely use it to count my steps while running and to view reminders I've created to use Yoga Studio. I've downloaded the app and will begin to use it. I've been wanting to start leaning Yoga and Pilates. So this is why I enter this #sweepstakes.
-
I'm starting to do some running after losing 20 pounds last year. I've got some health goals for this year and I believe the band can help me out! #sweepstakes
-
I would love to use an MS Band to help me remember my workout routines and track my steps. Too many ways to mention! I am posting this an entry into the sweepstakes.

With the ability to track your own exercises by name (Xbox Fitness, walking, yoga) you can set up and keep up with the road map that works best. Even though running may burn the most calories - by tracking the other workouts by name you can better see the effect of sleep, total daily calorie count, weight, max VO2. The probability to keep you motivated and going increase with the reminder on the wrist. #sweepstakes
-
My wife would love to have one of the MS bands. She enjoys running & yoga. #sweepstakes
-
I really want to win #sweepstakes because I'd use my Band 2 to more accurately help me train for my first marathon. Please choose me!

-
I would use it to help keep me motivated and lose some weight. If I had two, I'd give the other one to my girlfriend who wants to do the same thing!
#sweepstakes -
I go to the gym at least 3 times a week and I wear a Moto 360 daily, but it's metal and not something I want to wear at the gym. It'd be really nice to have all the tracking the Band 2 could do, considering I like to enhance my life using tech where I can. #sweepstakes
-
I would use the Band to help me to keep the habit alive. With the ability to track my workouts, I wkould be able to see my progress and the days of consistancy! I'm trying to keep the "chain" unbroken! 1) #sweepstakes 2) #sweepstakes 3) #sweepstakes 4) #sweepstakes .... Like that!
-
Keeping those reminders and logging stats would do wonders! #sweepstakes

-
I want Microsoft Band 2 for my wife to control her daily motion. #sweepstakes
-
Honestly, I'd give the Band 2, if I win, to my Girlfriend who is getting her masters. She runs marathons and uses the Band 1 to train and track her runs. We both got a band one when they came out so to say the least, its a bit beat up. Only reason we have not got her a band 2 yet is because as anyone who has done it, doing a masters with plans to go get a phd is a costly thing. Would be a good gift to say the least! #sweepstakes
-
I want to use it to track my soccer playing! and.. yoga... :) #sweepstakes
-
I've never done yoga before and I think I'd benefit greatly from practicing yoga. This would be the perfect incentive! #Sweepstakes
-
Studying my sleep patterns along with my runs, hikes and bike rides #sweepstakes
-
I would have a help in reminding me to get up off my butt.
-
I have been using band 1 since a year and would love to have band 2 to upgrade.. it forms a part of my windows ecosystem.. windows 10 pc-desktop 32 bit, windows 10 pro Lenovo YOGA 500 laptop 64 bit, windows 8.1 RT on lumia 2520, windows 10 mobile on lumia 730 and band 2 to replace band 1! #sweepstakes
-
My wife totally needs the Microsoft Band 2. The quick notifications and Cortana integration will ease the madness a bit when she's wrangling with a cranky baby and her phone is taunting her from across the room. Since the baby was born 8 months and some change ago, she's been wanting to get into an exercise routine again as well. Swiping into some Band workouts and tracking her activity should help to propel her along that journey. #sweepstakes
-
I never own a fitness band yet. So i would like to own a MS Band 2. so that I can understand what difference it can bring to my life. Excited!! #sweepstakes

With MS BAND 2 i would be sleep much better and can monitor my lonely heart :O #sweepstakes

The MS Band 2 could do several things for me. It could give me that last push to start exercising, and being able to see tangible results layed out for me every time could make working out seem less daunting. This could track my sleep and allow me to get better rest nightly. And getting notifications without using my phone would be ideal. MS Band 2, come to me! #sweepstakes
-
microsoft helps me my life to be better and easy with band so that i can live happily .i'll be greatful if i got this band from the officials of windows central #sweepstakes.

As a type 1 diabetic with Dexcom G5 I need to keep my blood sugars in check to stave off complications; neuropathy including limb amputations, blindness, liver and kidney failure etc. - all unfortunately extremely common in diabetics. I have to pay £65/ week on dexcom sensors and £350 for the transmitter every 3 months. The Microsoft band would continue the technology revolution in stabilising my health and blood sugars - helping catch those deadly low and high sugars at all times, whether in meetings, in bed, or at sport (which can finally increase without fear of low sugars). The band would be life changing to me - blood glucose results on my wrist at all times! Every diabetic should have one, shame I am too tied up paying for sensors and transmitters. Congratulations on Microsoft for joining the move forward on actual heath data tracking. posting as an entry into the sweepstakes, or use #sweepstakes.

I definately want to measure my sleep cycle and sports activities. MS Band would really help with that #sweepstakes

I'd use it to log my exercises #sweepstakes

As a yogi I have been using this app on iOS for a long time. Just a few weeks ago I was so excited when I discovered it on the Windows 10 store, so installed it on my pc and phone. It's just as good on Windows 10 as on iOS. I can't recommend the app more for anyone looking at doing some yoga at home. Hands down one of the best yoga apps out there and definitely the best available on Windows 10. The app has a large easy to understand and well illustrated database of yoga asanas. Would nicely compliment a Microsoft Band 2. #sweepstakes

My wife and I are avid cyclists and I'd use the band 2's bike app is fantastic for keeping track of my rides. Its GPS functions for route mapping are excellent and I'd also be able to track my heart rate during intervals of sprinting versus cruising. Accessing my phone for these functions while on my bike is difficult and many times requires me to stop. The band 2 would eliminate this. Sleep tracking would also be of great benefit. #sweepstakes

The MS Band 2 will help me get back into my exercise routine. Using the sleep tracker, I can track my sleeping habits so I can get a better nights rest and have more energy to exercise. I like to ride my bike so it will help me better track how far I have gone and to track my calories burned for the duration. With my kids wanting to ride on longer trips now, I can use the GPS to find fun and exciting trips for them before just going out on our own. The band 2 will also help me in the gym so I can track the exercises I am working on. Of course, it will come in handy during the occasional golf trip I do by having the the course information for me. Finally, by syncing to my Lumia 1520 running Windows 10 Mobile, I will have all collected data from walking to cycling and golf as well as sleep at my finger tips. I would love to win this and add it to my exercise routine. #sweepstakes.

Having a number of health issues, it is imperative that I exercise efficiently. This would help me to maintain my exercise and help to monitor me. I would also be able to keep in touch with others should something happen. This would be good to monitor my sleep for my doctor. I do try to challenge myself but have to be cautious. It could also help me with meditation while walking or at home.#sweepstakes

I would like to get my entire family using the Band 2, not only for the sleep tracking, and the step counting, but just the overall 'get up and move' reminders, and stuff.

I currently use a Garmin VivoFit to track my daily steps for our fitness program at work. Since I have a desk job, I like that the band will remind you to move if you have been stationary for a while, that is one of the reasons I went with the VivoFit.

So I think that would be the perfect way to say "Thank you" on mother's day. #sweepstakes

I used to do yoga on the Wii FIT and it was pretty good and felt good to. I think a new app on my Lumia 950XL would help out to get me feeling better again like my time on the Wii FIT.

I would use it for running/cycling and track stats of these activities. I very much like the heart monitor on the wrist, it means that I will no longer need to use a chest strap heart rate monitor, that is a great feature! I would also track my sleep with the aim of finding ways to improve it with the analytics available through the Microsoft Health app, and since I often leave my phone at home use Cortana's handy reminders to ensure that I never miss an appointment! #sweepstakes.

It would help me get sexy #sweepstakes

Currently I only use the Lumia 950 with Microsoft Health. Unfortunately it is quite limited. With the Microsoft Band 2 I would be able to:
• see how many stairs I've climbed
• Use it to track me while I bike (as in bike speed, calories burned, length and time of bike run, etc.)
• I could also wear it at night to see how effectively I’m sleeping and maybe what time would be best for me to wake up (so that I can stop feeling tired every morning) #sweepstakes -
Having a band may be a starter as I hardly excercise or jog. #sweepstakes
-
This is a pretty useful app for those trying to get into the swing of being fit. Yoga classes can be expensive and embarrassing, so it's good to have a guide for doing yoga in private. #sweepstakes

Yo. I am on diet, and training very hard to loose my weight. I've losed 10 pound since February. I am always looking to buy a 24/7 activity and fitness tracker. Microsoft Band 2 is definitely the first choice, but it's not available in my country. If I could have the Band 2, I will wear it almost 24/7 to track my activity, and also during my gym and running to track my performance. #sweepstakes

The wifey would love this thing!! #sweepstakes
-
To be honest? Because I want to know how far behind I am compared to my much more fit friend! #sweepstakes
-
I wonder if the Band would register anything while paddling my kayak, or if it would just think I am sitting on my butt waving at people. What I've seen of the app (even on my Androids) looks good and I've read good reviews of it. If I had one, I'm pretty sure my Flex would find itself in its charger permanently, instead of every other day.

I currently have a Withings Pulse Ox to track my fitness but it doesn't really motivate me to be more active, mostly because it just stays in my pocket all day. Looking at the features of the Microsoft Band 2, I can tell that's just the kick I need to get moving and want to be more active in my daily life. #sweepstakes I'm also going to check out Yoga Studio, it sounds customizable enough for me to actually get on my yoga mat!

I use a basic fitbit, but it definitely not as advanced as the Microsoft Band 2! This device would definitely enable me to keep better and more accurate track of my day-to-day health regimen--running 10km, climbing stairs and keep track of my sleep better!. This post is as an entry into the sweepstakes. #sweepstakes

Id use it to count bacon strips I go through every day....I bet it'd be quite entertaining to hear it scream "STAHP! NO MORE BACON.....go work out - NAO!!!one!". but seriously, I'm heavily invested in w10 ecosystem and Im more interested in windows based wearable for notifications etc than health side of the device. #sweepstakes

I would use a Band 2 to go on runs and just monitor my health in general. Just got a new dog so I take her on two long walks/runs a day. A Band 2 would be awesome to keep track of that.

It would help m gain some weight as it can count calories intake. It would help me get a healthy and sound health as it moniters my sleep. it can also help me burn excess amount of calories. And last but not least when im in middle doing workouts or work it would notify me about calls and messages on my wrist so i dont have to run after the phone often. #sweeptakes

Looks great, just a little bummed I missed the free window, but looks like it's worth the $. #sweepstakes

I want one of these SOOOO very much! I currently have a Asus Zen watch but would like to have the Microsoft Band instead. It's a little more sleak and contoured. Plus, it would go nicely with my Lumia 950 XL! I would use it to track my walking throughout the day. I walk a lot at work and it's nice to know how far I have gone and set some goals. It also would be nice to monitor my heart rate for blood pressure concerns. Please enter me in the Microsoft Band sweepstakes! #sweepstakes.

I had the original Microsoft Band, but recently had to warranty it. I was given the option to upgrade to the Band 2 at that point, which of course I did. So, if I got this Band, I would pass my current one on to my daughter. #sweepstakes

While I use the three main OS's for school I mainly use OS X for pc and iphone use but love my SP3 and windows 10 for notes and group work, I've been meaning to upgrade my Lumia 640 to Win10 but haven't had time. I have the lumia for testing and for fun windows 10 xbox games! I also have an old galaxy phone for testing too! Which means I use my iphone for all my smartphone heavy lifting (I'm eager to test the the 950 XL since I'm eligable to upgrade soon!), so one of the best things I like about the Microsoft Band 2 is that no matter what phone I'm using I know that the MB2 will work with it, which is just ONE of the many reasons I've steered clear of the Apple watch. The Yoga Studio app (super bummed that I missed the free download) looks awesome, I get stiff while working and studing and need stretch often and have considered yoga before but never have the time or desire to go to a studio. Adding this App to Windows 10 and making it compatible (obviously) with MB2 is great, I plan on trying this out when I get my MB2 I'm going to splurge so I can get some compressed and quick stretches in my office or studyroom. #sweepstakes

keep track if i have done enough #sweepstakes
-
I would use the band to help keep better track of my health (and lack of sleep!). #sweepstakes

Track my lifting regimen. #sweepstakes

I have the first Microsoft Band and I love it. I am amazed at how many features are available. I bought it to track my sleep because I have insomnia. It has notifications for calls, texts and emails. I had no idea how many miles I was walking in one day just inside the house. I added Cleveland Browns, Stock Market, and several beginner exercises that also include Yoga. It pairs very easily to phones, tablets and computers with bluetooth. The App displays by day, week, month, etc. The new one is supposed to be more comfortable and has Cortana. Even if you don't win it, it is well worth buying. Good luck to everyone. #Sweepstakes
-
I would use it for my walks and my daily exercise regimen. #sweepstakes

Adding MS band to your life will make you aware of your activities and your health status plus keeps you connected your phone remotely, Family, work and friends keep you busy it would be great to track your sleep quality as it has a great impact on your body and brain health, as well, tracking my movement around when I'm at work or in the city moving from one place to another, If I do eat more than I do activities, do I need to do light training or I should dedicate some time to train. What's more, I don't like to keep my phone with me when I'm at home or office, I do leave it in one place and come to check back to check if I have received a call, SMS, or an email, using band will make me get notified right away if I have received any without wasting my time or distract me of what I'm doing. Finally, you can check all activities Online using a browser or with MS Health App, and guess what, Cortana is supported with your band. #sweepstakes
