Watch: The best fitness innovations showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show 2019 [videos]

It's that one time of the year when industry leaders all get together to showcase their best designs, and this time around was no different. From a fitness watch that charges via solar to a home boxing set-up that will make your friends envious.

FightCamp If you want to get fit but do not look forward to signing up at a gym, then this one is for you. The workout from home subscription packages are getting increasingly popular, despite the high price tags.

To set up your FightCamp will cost about $1,000. The package includes a pair of boxing gloves, freestanding punching bag, mats, hand wraps and an electronic tracker to monitor your movements. There's an added monthly subscription of $39, which gives you access to live training in your living room.

If you already have a boxing set-up at home, you can skip the package and just go for the electronic trackers and wraps. That will save you about $600.

The kettlebell comes with sensors to track your movement, including the intensity and duration of your workouts. At a premium price of $350, you get access to hardware that will take your workout session to the next level.
