Outstanding fitness and workout apps for iOS and Android to aid you in your sweaty gym endeavors
They will help you by showing you new exercises, keeping tabs on your workout routine, or even show you how to correctly perform these essential goblet squats. In case you can call your local gym your second home, you should probably consider downloading some of the apps below.
JEFIT
JEFIT is an app that contains over 1,300 exercises and numerous user-made workout plans, but its most outstanding feature is its ability to keep a log of your gym endeavors. Each exercise is thoroughly described in text and pictures, which makes it quite easy to get the hang of it. After you complete a set, you can input how many reps you made and with what weight (if any) - JEFIT will automatically calculate how much you've lifted and what amount of time you've spent on it. The routine plans are separated by gender and the equipment you have, so the app will suggest different workouts for middle-aged women that opt to workout at home and finely-cut gym fanatics. Finally, you can easily make your own, customized workout plan.
FitNotes
Get it on Android (free)
This is a hassle-free app that puts function over form and allows you to log down your workout sessions. It's not among the prettiest workout loggers out there (no Material Design in sight), but once you grow accustomed to its intuitive interface, you will hardly have any gripes with its 2013 looks. The app has a wide selection of exercises for the different parts of the body and will provide you with a concise history of your previous experience, as well as a handy graph, illustrating the evolution of your strength over time.
This app, which is available across both iOS and Android, is an app that will aid you in your gym workouts or cardio sessions, as well as yoga, cardio, weightlifting, running, and others . After a brief setup process determining your body stats and the goals you want to achieve, Workout Trainer will provide you with a hefty amount of program suggestions. A curious feature is the Shakerciser, a slot machine of sorts that will challenge you with a completely random workout. In order to use all of the apps' features and the workout programs in particular, you will need to shell out roughly ten bucks, but it comes with a free seven-day trial to see if the app is worth it.
Instant Fitness Trainer
Who needs to go to the gym, anyway? This is totally not the single spot you can exercise; in fact, you can do it just everywhere. This app aims to provide you with a number of ways to workout at home or while on the go, where no equipment is available at hand. There are more 120 curated exercises on board and all of them are tailored to fit in your busy schedule.
MyFitnessPal
Lose It!
Similar to MyFitnessPal, Lose It! will keep tabs on your calorie intake throughout the day. However, the focus here is purely weight loss. It's a pretty polished app across both platforms, with an extremely welcoming and intuitive interface that will make you feel at home in no time. You can select among a majority of weight loss plans that will aid in your endeavors. The app provides you with informative graphs of your weight, body fat percentage, body mass index, as well as hydration over time; of course, you will have to input the data yourself.
