Most Super Bowl gatherings are more focused on food than football—and from chicken wings to cheese sticks, it's an event not likely to score many points in the healthy category. But not all of the big game's moments focused on overindulgence: There was a handful of advertisers who bucked the unhealthy trend and featured fitness-focused commercials. FitBit - Dualities Exercise means something different to each of us. This inspiring spot shows how the FitBit Blaze can help you get in shape and in style, whether you're running errands, sprints, meetings or drills. GoPro - Hero Okay, so most of us probably aren't planning to get footage of ourselves rappelling down the face of a cliff anytime soon, but GoPro's action-packed ad still promotes getting out there and tackling physical challenges, which is better than yet another snack foods spot. Marmot – Love the Outside This adventure gear company's cutesy commercial promotes the wonders of the great outdoors, which is one of the best (and cheapest) fitness tools available. Bring your own marmot. Avocados from Mexico Sure, it's an essential ingredient in guacamole, but avocados are known to have ample health benefits. Aliens and Scott Baio aside, it's refreshing to see a Big Game commercial hyping a healthy food. Michelob Ultra - Breathe Featuring focused athletes breathing their way through vigorous workouts, this feels more like a Nike or Gatorade commercial—until the bottle of Michelob Ultra makes its frosty entrance. While we won't go so far as to call beer a healthy beverage, we like how this spot glamorizes pushing to your full physical potential. And hey, if you're going to reward your hard work with a cold one, it might as well have just 95 calories and 2.6 grams of carbs. Advil - Distant Memory What pain? In this high-energy health spot, Advil promises to make those nagging aches and pains a distant memory, so you can pursue the activities you love.
