Stuck at home and worried about gaining weight or becoming less fit? A Noom free trial is what you need to keep you in check. It offers personalized coaching advice that specifically targets where you need help most.

Right now,

Noom

is offering a two-week free trial but you need to be quick about getting on board the personalized coaching train. The mobile app offers a one-to-one coaching plan that does everything possible to help you get fit for good, lose weight, or both. It’s a great way of making sure you have the body and lifestyle you want once you’re able to head outdoors again.

Noom tackles lifestyle changes, encouraging you to develop new healthier habits than before, rather than simply have you lose weight rapidly but through temporary measures that never last. It’s well documented that a lifestyle change is much more effective at helping you maintain your fitness goals than a fast fad diet, and Noom embraces that. It’s been designed by behavioral psychologists, nutritionists, and personal trainers to ensure it always offers the most sustainable lifestyle changes for you.

Unlike other apps, you receive actual feedback from human coaches during business hours every day, rather than simply receiving A.I.-generated notifications. The app creates a personalized calorie breakdown for your daily diet based on what you’re doing that day, before tracking your food intake and exercise levels. It also keeps an eye on your blood pressure and blood sugar levels, so you’ll soon know if you are having any of those issues.

With such a strong focus on empowerment, Noom isn’t just about doing what it tells you to do, but about learning how to make impactful and healthier changes to your life. Understanding nutrition is a key way of boosting your life, as well as your energy levels.

Noom ordinarily costs $49 per month but right now you can enjoy two weeks for free to see if it’s for you. Compared to the price of a personal trainer session, it’s a pretty good deal with the two-week free trial having no risk attached to it. While you’re stuck indoors, why not give it a whirl and see if it makes a difference? Noom reckons its users can lose an average of 18 pounds in just 16 weeks if they follow the plan carefully.

Get a KN95 Mask from only $2.40 with our exclusive coupon code

Numerous states in the U.S. have mandated mask-wearing in public, and even in places where it's not legally required, many private businesses have instituted their own rules for facial coverings. If this has left you scrambling to find some face masks but you're still trying to sort out what type of mask to buy and where you can get them, you're in luck: N95 Mask Company is offering Digital Trends readers a 20% discount on its KN95 face masks with coupon code DTSPECIAL, meaning you can score a pack of 20 for just $2.40 apiece (or even cheaper if you buy more) -- one of the lowest prices available for certified masks from a reputable company.
Buy at N95 Mask Co
The shortage of personal protective equipment is thankfully in the rear-view mirror, but there are several kinds of face masks available right now and much of the terminology can seem a little confusing. You've likely seen many people wearing cloth face masks and disposable surgical masks, and while these can offer a decent level of protection, they do not bear any sort of official certifications for filtration efficiency. A more effective option is a mask that features an N95 or KN95 rating, meaning that it adheres to regulatory standards set by the National Institute of Occupation Safety and Health (NIOSH).

In order for a mask to qualify for the N95 certification set by NIOSH, it must be capable of filtering at least 95% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns. Viruses such as the coronavirus are smaller than that but the particles that these viruses travel on -- namely aerosolized fluids created when people cough, sneeze, speak, and even breathe -- are typically larger, which is what allows these face masks to capture these virus-carrying airborne particulates. KN95 is the Chinese government's equivalent regulatory standard for airborne filtration, and masks with this certification are on the Food and Drug Administration's Appendix A list of overseas-made masks that have been tested to meet U.S. regulatory standards.

For the most part, gyms remain closed -- and where they have reopened, it is still a risky idea to visit them. The solution for many of us is clear: It’s time to move workouts from the gym to the home. Which makes this fall the perfect time to take your living space and add the necessary fitness components that can make it work for your exercise regime, and your life. Right now, Best Buy is offering some amazing discounts on fitness equipment, from treadmills to smartwatches to massagers to help bring all the benefits of working out to you and your home.
Fitbit Sense Advanced Health & Fitness Smartwatch
— $330

An essential accessory for fitness tracking from Fitbit, a brand you know. The great thing about a Fitbit watch like the Sense is it won’t set you back in the same way that an Apple Watch or other smartwatches will, but it’s still jam-packed with features, and it’s geared specifically towards health. It can constantly and easily help you monitor your heart, keep tabs on your stress, and can help you with sleep. It even has a feature that keeps an eye on your skin temperature. The amazingly bright display and easy OS make navigation and notification easy as can be and as a bonus, its Amazon Alexa integration puts it to work using only voice commands.
