Imagine all your daily exercises streamlined into one little device that you could take with you wherever you go. That’s what Technogym’s My Wellness Cloud is all about.
The device allows you to monitor your fitness using a key, which looks like a flash drive. It comes with a small clip that you could attach to your trousers.
The key records every step and exercise you do and sets a daily goal of the number of “moves” you should make based on the nature of your job (whether at a desk job or on site).
At the gym, you can plug the key into any Technogym machine and it automatically records your workout and has the ability to monitor your progress for months and even years. As for non-Technogym exercise or ones where you burn calories without taking too many steps, such as weight training or yoga, simply plug the key into a designated Wellness Cloud kiosk at the gym or your computer at home to record your workout.
Compatible with smartphones, tablets, computers and smart televisions, My Wellness Cloud also allows your personal trainer to monitor your fitness, helping him or her to tailor your future routines accordingly.
Gyms equipped with Wellness Cloud can host monthly competitions for members whereby the winner (the one who records the most “moves” or burns the most calories) can be tracked through the “challenges” section of the device.

Also on December 7 to 9, the third edition of the Gulf Car Festival (www.gulfcarfestival.com) will take over Dubai Festival City Mall, a new venue for the event. Last year's festival brought together about 900 cars worth more than Dh300 million from across the Emirates and wider Gulf region – and that first figure is set to swell by several hundred this time around, with between 1,000 and 1,200 cars expected. The first day is themed around American muscle; the second centres on supercars, exotics, European cars and classics; and the final day will major in JDM (Japanese domestic market) cars, tuned vehicles and trucks. Individuals and car clubs can register their vehicles, although the festival isn’t all static displays, with stunt drifting, a rev battle, car pulls and a burnout competition.

The Facility’s Versatility
Between the start of the 2020 IPL on September 20, and the end of the Pakistan Super League this coming Thursday, the Zayed Cricket Stadium has had an unprecedented amount of traffic.
Never before has a ground in this country – or perhaps anywhere in the world – had such a volume of major-match cricket.
And yet scoring has remained high, and Abu Dhabi has seen some classic encounters in every format of the game.
October 18, IPL, Kolkata Knight Riders tied with Sunrisers Hyderabad
The two playoff-chasing sides put on 163 apiece, before Kolkata went on to win the Super Over
January 8, ODI, UAE beat Ireland by six wickets
A century by CP Rizwan underpinned one of UAE’s greatest ever wins, as they chased 270 to win with an over to spare
February 6, T10, Northern Warriors beat Delhi Bulls by eight wickets
The final of the T10 was chiefly memorable for a ferocious over of fast bowling from Fidel Edwards to Nicholas Pooran
March 14, Test, Afghanistan beat Zimbabwe by six wickets
Eleven wickets for Rashid Khan, 1,305 runs scored in five days, and a last session finish
June 17, PSL, Islamabad United beat Peshawar Zalmi by 15 runs
Usman Khawaja scored a hundred as Islamabad posted the highest score ever by a Pakistan team in T20 cricket
