Quick App: iStayFit 8
One of the biggest issues that keeps people from maintaining an exercise routine is a lack of immediate and measurable results. The best way to maintain motivation is, of course, to track your progress; Seeing that you're able to lift 5 pounds more on the dead lift than you were able to last week or that you're able to run that mile a minute faster are invaluable to that end. Thankfully, the App Catalog has a number of options to help you do just that.
iStayFit ($4.99 in the App Catalog) is a feature rich workout tracking application that allows you to track your progress in any number of pre-designed or user built workout routines. And more than being just a tracking app, iStayFit also has a vast database of exercises ranging from the dead lift to the cable neck flexion and everything between, with detailed animations showing you exactly how to perform each one.
The UI could use some work (do we really need number pickers with 200 options?) and is often less than intuitive, but the overall experience a whole lot less cumbersome than bringing a pad of paper and a pen along throughout the course of your workout to track your results, since you probably have your phone on you for listening to music anyway. $4.99 may be a tad pricey, but the animations just might be worth the price.

I use this app and like it a lot for managing my exercise routines/weights at the gym. It needs a backup feature though. If you lose your phone or perform an update, you will lose all of your workout history.

What?
I wish palm could introduce ability to gift applications to other palm pre users.
I'd be interested in this application but not at $4.99. Applications seem to be overpriced, I'm waiting for the crash.
I agree. $5 for an app you might use every day for months is horrendous compared to a fmin coffee or half hour magazine.
Sheesh! :(
I'm interested in a workout tracking app but there are quite a lot to choose from. How does this one compare with the others?
Really? $5 is too much for an application that will help you have a positive impact on your life, and you will have with you and use as often and whenever you like, and that someone has clearly spent precious time and effort creating and putting together?
I bet you don't even think twice about buying a $$5 cup of coffee at Starbucks or $8 combo for lunch at a restaurant, items whose value quickly diminishes after it's consumed.
No, I don't think it's over priced, you're just extra cheap.
very very good topic. It needs a backup Sohbet odalar? feature though. If you lose your sohbet siteleri phone or perform an update, you will lose porno izle all of your workout history.
