How does your phone turn into a fitness coach?

- Get the workout routine
If you’re looking for an exercise program that goes beyond step counting, there are thousands of apps available for both Android and iOS. Especially with the pandemic period, doing sports at home has become more efficient and easier. Workout programs include “Nike Training”, “Sworkit”, “30-Day Fitness Challenge”, “FitOn” and “Home Workouts”.
- Keep a nutrition diary
If you want to focus on nutritional adjustments, you need to consume enough of each type of food. However, you can consume foods that are eaten during the day. For this, it will be more effective to record the foods you consume or to use a nutrition list specially prepared for you.
Among the apps in this category, FatSecret focuses on counting calories and losing weight. It also shares this app data with Apple Health, Google Fit and other apps. Mealdoc: The Healthy Eating application prepares the most suitable nutrition list for you.
- Map your way
Your phone’s map app helps you be more active in general. For example, using the map will suffice to see where you can exercise or to see suitable places for walking.
