Achieving a fit and healthy body is hard for many people. This is because of the need to balance between heavy workouts and an appropriate diet. It doesn’t help that a phone app can’t keep up with what you need in terms of motivation. Fitness apps have been around for many years and the market is flooded with them. But, it’s not just about looking for the most popular app and downloading it. There are different criteria to consider before making a decision on which app will best match your fitness needs.
Some apps are more focused on tracking and monitoring your body’s health by logging each workout session with details of calories burned, heart rate, distance covered, etc. These apps can be used to better understand your workout performance over time to help you stay motivated.
Some other fitness apps are designed in a similar way as video games where you have user-friendly AI trainers that teach you how to set up gym routines, how to do each exercise properly, when to rest in between exercises, etc. There is also a gamification element that rewards users with badges and achievements as they progress through their workouts. These types of fitness apps can make exercise more fun and motivating.
However, there are some fitness apps which are very unique and user-friendly. They promise to take away the difficult aspect of fitness by using AI trainers who will always be available when you want them.
