There does come a time when we look down at our own flabby self and
give ourselves a break from all the Angry Bird craziness ensuing on our
smartphone screen and go for a jog. We decided to give you the much-needed
motivational nudge and combine the mundane exercise routine with some gizmo and
gadgetry!
Here are a bunch of health and fitness apps that you can download
for your smartphone that will help you get back in shape, or keep yourself fit
the right way!
1. WebMD
We tend to get worried about frivolous things regarding our health
and well-being time and again and since we’re too embarrassed to visit the
doctor for everything, a sudden urge to google the symptoms swells up. In such a
case, WebMD offers the perfect solution in which all you need to do is add some
personal detail and narrow down our symptoms and the app does the rest. It gives
you a rough diagnosis of what might be wrong with you and even offers treatment
for the same. Oh, and it can be highly resourceful during a First-Aid emergency.
2. Sleep Cycle
Getting rudely awakened from our deep sleepby an annoying alarm clock is the worst way to kickstart a morning.
And the only cure to all of that is the Sleep Cycle. This app smartly clubs
itself to your phone’s accelerometer and tracks your movement in your sleep. And
whenever it senses that you’re sleep is the lightest, it’ll ring the bell! Don’t
worry though, it’ll wake you up around a 30-minute window frame of your set time
so that your schedule doesn’t get messy.
3. Fitness Buddy
Fitness Buddy is a fitness buddy in the truest sense, and a smart
one at that. Usually we get confused about which workout to execute to flex
our muscles the right way and Fitness Buddy does just that! All you need to do
is set a fitness goal and it will map a fitness regime for you to achieve! It
offers more than 1,700 exercises and 1,000 videos for guidance.
4. MyFitnessPal Calorie Counter & Diet Tracker
Today’s calorie conscious beings create a huge fuss regarding the
amount of calorie that goes into their tummy, and the amount they burn. But that
would seem like a worry of yesterday, all thanks to MyFitnessPal Calorie Counter
& Diet Tracker. This app keeps a track on the amount of calories that you
have consumed and the amount that you have burned through exercising or your
daily routine. Perfect for fitness freaks.
5. RunKeeper
RunKeeper combines the power of your phone’s GPS and accelerometer
and assists you in all the walking and jogging that you do on a daily basis. It
tracks your running time, the distance covered, your pace, and the amount of
calories burned during the process. It even comes preloaded with running regimes
and workoutsto help you in scheduling your runs accordingly! It’s in-built
audio cues help in giving you the much-needed motivational nudge if you’re
slowing down or stopping.
