Best Personalized Workout Programs in USA

In this article, we’ll explore the best-individualized workout programs available in the USA. Our team of fitness experts has reviewed hundreds of workout programs, including ACE-certified personal trainers, and chosen the ones that fit best into our lifestyles. Whether you want to lose weight, get toned, or gain muscle, there’s a program for you. Here are our top picks:

Trainiac is a good option for those on a budget, with reasonable monthly payments of $99 per month. It offers live classes with a trainer, with feedback on form and performance. There are over 400 different workouts to choose from, and the app includes unlimited messaging and in-app support. In case you need motivation, you can also set up 1:1 video calls with your trainer. The biggest drawback of Trainiac is the price tag, but it’s worth a look.

Another popular individualized workout program is the 8Fit app. A Marie Claire fitness editor swears by this app. It helps users customize their workouts and create meal plans, as well as a step-by-step nutrition guide. Both programs focus on creating healthy habits, including eating nutritious foods. Couch to 5K is aimed at novice runners. You’ll need to dedicate 30 minutes a day to running three times a week for nine weeks to see results.

Users have to choose their fitness goals, including losing weight or increasing muscle mass. Then, they choose which workouts they prefer and which ones they want to do at home. They’ll also need to answer questions about their weight, height, and lifestyle. Once they’ve selected their goals, the app will recommend the best workout for them. The best-personalized workout programs in the USA will also help users track their progress throughout the program.

Another popular individualized workout program is Aaptiv. This service uses guided audio to teach users how to exercise to reach their fitness goals. Its programs are available in a variety of different formats, including stair climbing, rowing, 5k training, and others. Different trainers offer different levels of motivation. Aaptiv’s trainers are listed as “fun, supportive, and pushing” and are guaranteed to motivate you to reach your goals.

In addition to online fitness instructors, there are augmented reality workout apps like Strava and BodyScan. The former tracks workout metrics using an avatar, and the latter tracks muscle movements and workouts. They also offer monthly challenges and competitions. Some augmented reality workout programs use a virtual assistant to track your progress. A good option for someone who’s new to the fitness world is the Strava app. With this tool, users can keep track of their progress through a social platform and share their accomplishments.

Rich Betch in the Making

1st post! Just had a birthday, so I’m ready to start working on my goals. What did I gift myself? Financial freedom! By this time next year I’ll be in a much better place than I am currently. 

So what am I doing to ensure that happens? 

First, I signed up for YNAB (You Need A Budget). I’ve read countless reviews about how great it is and when my sister commented that she saved a few hundred dollars her first month, I knew I had to try it. Now normally it is $89.99 a year, but I found a promo code that offered the first 3 months free. Even better? The program offers free classes, workshops, and guides that make it easier to use. In fact, I have a Debt Paydown Class in about 5 minutes.  I’ve only been on for about 3 days, but I’m going to keep you updated about my progress with the app and my financial goals. 

Next, I signed up for Aaptiv. It’s an audio workout app that you can use on your phone. Before this, I was paying $130/mo for Lifetime Fitness. Now don’t get me wrong, Lifetime is an amazing gym, but I found that the cost just wasn’t budget friendly. I froze the membership for a while, but that was still $21.33/mo. Did I forget to mention that my apartment building has a gym? Crazy, I know. (I really wanted the saunas!) Anyway, I decided to try Aaptiv after a friend raved about it. Each workout is customized by level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced), type of workout, even genre of music. I began using fairly quick workouts (10-15 minutes) and found it was SO easy to incorporate into my workday. I even found treadmill workouts that I could use for my building’s gym. It was much easier than driving to the gym and gave me fewer excuses (weather, schedule, etc.). You can also save and download workouts, which is even better if you don’t have access to WiFi or cellular data. At the end of my 30 days I had to decide whether I would pay $99.99 up front or $9.99/mo. Fortunately, I found a promo for 6 months free and only needed to pay $45.99 for a year of workouts. 

My class has started, but I hope you’ll continue to join me as I begin this journey to financial freedom!

Go be great!

How to try the new Disney-themed workout classes at Obé Fitness—and get 30% off – USA TODAY

— Recommendations are independently chosen by Reviewed’s editors. Purchases you make through our links may earn us a commission.

It’s officially been a year since the global COVID-19 pandemic began, and out of all of the changes we’ve had to make to our daily routines, there’s one in particular that I’ll likely make permanent. I’m onboard to adopt virtual and in-app workout classes on a long-term basis. I love having access to hundreds (if not thousands!) of workouts that I can easily do anywhere, anytime, without ever having to step into a sweaty gym. If you’re looking to continue your at-home workouts for the foreseeable future, too, you’re in luck—you can currently get 30% off your first month of Obé Fitness. 

Get expert shopping advice delivered to your phone. Sign up for text message alerts from the deal-hunting nerds at Reviewed.

To get the deal, simply click this link to activate coupon code OBE30 and have the discount automatically applied when you sign up for the site’s monthly plan, dropping your first month’s cost down from its normal $27 per month to $18.90 (note that you’ll pay the normal cost of $27 per month after your first 30 days). You’ll also be gifted a free seven days before you’re charged for your subscription. 

That’s especially good news for Disney fans, as the site has launched a weekend-long class (through March 7) in collaboration with the house of mouse to celebrate its new movie, Raya and the Last Dragon. It’s no coincidence that this is taking place during Women’s History Month, either: Obé promises that these workout sessions “will inspire you to channel your inner warrior.” 

Although we haven’t reviewed the new classes that Disney and obé Fitness just launched together, we have tested the Obé Fitness app, which proved to be a solid choice according to our health and fitness editor, Sara Hendricks. Along with an appreciation for the easy-to-use structure and cheery color palette, Hendricks said they brought the burn, adding “Most importantly, [it] made me feel more excited about exercising at home than not—which is exactly what a workout app is supposed to do.”

Obé offers 22 live classes per day and more than 5,000 on-demand classes to its members. So in addition to the new movie-themed classes, you’ll gain access to all of the pilates, yoga, barre, cardio dance, boxing, HIIT and strength-training classes you can handle at this discounted price.

Sara loved the live classes in particular, noting that it helped to take the decision-making out of the process. Plus, Obé often schedules classes that complement each other well back-to-back (think a lower-body strength class followed by an upper-body strength class). So if you’re someone who’d rather not spend time scrolling (and scrolling. and scrolling.) through workouts in search of one that’s just right, you can just powerup Obé and access the day’s workout schedule without having to think twice.

At $27 per month, Obé is a bit pricier than other fitness apps we’ve reviewed, such as Nike Training Club, Peloton and Aaptiv, and some of the classes require additional equipment. But if you’ve got the basics for workouts like yoga and strength training, Obé is worth the price tag—especially with the first month’s discount and a free week to sample all the classes.

Best Fitness Apps

For this post, I’m rounding up 10 of the very best fitness apps, depending on your goals. Please share an app you’re loving in the comments section!

Hi friends! Hope you’re having a lovely week. In between the fun adventures we’ve been enjoying, I’ve also been able to catch some workouts in the gym. Usually when we’re on vacation, I just go with the flow, and get in a workout if it makes sense with our schedule. (For example, I pretty much never work out when we go to Magic Kingdom or Disneyland because the days are so full and we’re walking a thousand miles anyway. If we’re on a low-key vacation and there’s a studio nearby, I might be able to sneak in a class or two.) Since this is a longer trip and we have access to a great gym (and kids’ club!), I’ve been going for it. I know I feel better when I get in a sweat, and I change things up frequently and never get bored.

For today, I thought I’d share 10 of the best fitness apps, depending on your goals. If there are any apps you love, please let us know in the comments!

If you need to work on mobility: GOWOD

I recently downloaded GOWOD when I realized how stiff my muscles have been. I haven’t made yoga as much of a priority lately – I did purchase a month unlimited at a local studio for when we’re back in town – and have been more dedicated to spending at least 5-10 minutes each day on stretching and mobility work. This app is $11.99 per month, so it’s a little more pricey, but I think it’s an excellent complement to a solid strength or training plan. 

If you want access to the best instructors: Peloton

Oh, Peloton. We’re coming up on 2 years that I’ve used and LOVED this app consistently. It started off with the spin classes, since I used to use the app propped up on my spin bike. Then, I finally converted and bought a bike – my favorite purchase of 2018 – and since then, I’ve taken the spin classes at least 2-3 times a week. I also adore their selection of workouts, including strength, yoga, meditation, running/walking, and stretching. I’m pretty sure the app is around $20 per month (it’s more if you have a bike @ $36) but so worth it for the caliber of instructors, the music, and the variety. You can check out my full review of the app here. 

If you need a solid strength training plan: SWEAT

SWEAT is an app that I come back to if I just have a half hour to work out and don’t want to think about it. The workouts include simple movements that always challenge me and increase my heart rate. I love that they’ve added different formats over time, including Stronger (the gym version of the class BBG workout), PWR (long traditional strength training workouts at a gym), PWT at Home, Post-pregnancy, Fierce (gym-based combining strength and high-intensity), and Build (combining bodybuilding and powerlifting).

If you’re looking for variety: Tone It Up Studio

This app is $12.99 per month and includes HIIT, cardio, yoga, barre, and strength. You can choose any workouts On Demand, join live classes (and see who’s working out with you), and the workouts are categorized for an easy selection.

If you want to track your macros: Chronometer 

I’ve been using Chronometer for quite a while now, and like it even more then My Fitness Pal for macro tracking. It does have ads in the free version, but if you don’t mind clicking the little “x” every now and again, it’s no big deal. They have nutrient bubbles for you to fill each day, so this encourages me to eat more fresh foods instead of simply trying to hit macro numbers. The database isn’t quite as large as MFP’s, but it’s pretty easy to manually input nutrition stats for recipes. 

If you’re a beginner: Aaptiv 

These are audio-based fitness classes from personal trainers ($9.99 per month). I haven’t personally tried this one, but according to the reviews, the trainers are extremely motivational and the music is good. 

If you want to start running: C25k

Couch to 5k is a solid running and walking plan to build up to a 5k. This is an excellent app if you know you want to venture into racers or longer distances but aren’t sure how to do it. I used to use the old school plan when I first started running, and it really gave me insight into what I needed to do to build time and mileage while increasing my running endurance. It’s FREE and $1.99 to remove ads.

If you want to practice yoga more often: Alo Moves

This app includes a variety of yoga classes from top-notch instructors. This is perfect if you know you want to practice yoga more frequently but aren’t able to take studio classes due to price, childcare, or commute. This app also includes tutorials on how to safely build up to specific yoga skills and poses. I think it’s worth noting here that if you’re a yoga beginner, it’s worthwhile to check out a handful of live yoga classes just to make sure your alignment is correct and you can become familiar with the basic poses. 

If you’re looking for prenatal and postnatal fitness: Studio Bloom

This one is for all of my expecting and new mama friends out there! I personally haven’t tried this one because I found out about it after the girls were born, but it has excellent reviews. I also have to shout out my postpartum workout guide here if you’re looking for a safe postpartum plan. <3

If you want to set up your own interval workout: HIIT timer

This is a handy app for setting up your own interval or circuit training. I like to use 30-30 splits or 45-15 splits of work and rest and this way, I don’t have to think about the clock.

So, tell me friends: do you use any fitness apps? What do you usually use to set up your workouts?

Hope you have a great day and I’ll see ya in the morning with a new podcast episode + giveaway. Make sure you’re subscribed to the podcast here. <3 You can listen and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Stitcher, and Google Play.

9 Tips for Better, Faster, Stronger Fitness Marketing

As a graduate student studying nutrition, I felt a bit giddy when I was asked to write about fitness marketing. While I might not be the most athletically talented individual, I’ve always been intrigued by the health and wellness industry. I have secret dreams of becoming a yoga instructor but, unfortunately, opt for the couch more often than not.

Now that the new year has started and resolutions are still fresh on our minds, it is prime fitness marketing time. Your target audience is growing because more and more people are bathing in their post-holiday indulgent guilt. Ever wonder why the gym is so crowded in January? Duh, it’s calorie-burning season!

So how can fitness marketers capitalize on these peak times? This post is going to explore nine tips fitness marketers can use to grow their businesses. But first off let’s define what exactly “fitness marketing” is. There are many types of organizations that can fall under this category, including:

Local gyms, health clubs, and workout studios (barre/yoga/spin classes, etc.) Fitness/nutrition apps Fitness gear/swag (clothing, watches, etc.) Health food/supplement companies

Basically, if your company focuses on health and wellness, in terms of food and fitness, you can benefit from these marketing strategies.

#1: Entice New Prospects with Special Intro Offers

While this tip might seem applicable to many industries, it is especially important for the fitness marketing industry, because like I said, the space is crowded. According to the IHRSA (International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub association), “the $30 billion health and fitness industry in the U.S. has been growing at least 3-4% annually for the last ten years and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.”

So how can you stand out among the pack? You need a special way to entice new customers to come in. And I’m not talking a free bottle of water at your gym. Think something more generous, like a personal training session, a week of free classes, or a free first month for subscribing to use your health/wellness app. Whatever you come up with, it needs to be compelling to give prospects a taste of what they could be getting by incorporating your product or service into their lifestyle.

Take this example from a local gym that offers occasional “open house” weeks when they provide free classes to the community.

Not only does this get people interested (who doesn’t like free stuff!), but it also is likely a successful way for this gym to get new contracts signed. Once these prospects get a taste of how they could improve their lifestyle, they will be much more likely to make a financial investment towards their personal fitness.

#2: Provide Compelling Reviews and Success Stories

One of the first things I do before investing in any health or fitness product or service is binge-read reviews.  Since these types of products can often be expensive and may or may not yield results, reviews are very meaningful in this industry. Not only do you, as fitness marketers, need to solicit reviews from happy customers, but you also need to incorporate these reviews into your marketing tactics.

For instance, if you have high rating on Google-approved review platforms, incorporate these into your Google search ads. Use customer quotes in your imagery for social and display ads. Or even go a step further and film a compelling customer testimonial video.

The bottom line is that if your customers are happy (which they should be), you need to leverage this to help market your business. It will make a substantial impact!

#3: Share Motivational Advice

While the thought of sharing motivational quotes might make your eyes roll, don’t worry! You can do this in a non-cheesy way. For instance, sharing success stories from past or current customers (which also ties in the tip above, extra points!). Your potential leads may be considering your fitness offerings, but they may just need that extra push to make the purchase. How can you give them this?

There are so many ways! Lose It!, The Boston-based fitness and health app often provides motivation in subtle ways with jokes, healthy recipes, and more. But their most powerful motivational pushes come from their customer success photos, like the example below.

So do not forget to motivate! This may be just the thing to encourage that lead to commit.

#4: Be Transparent about Pricing

There is nothing more frustrating than unclear pricing, whether you are unable to find pricing information online or deceived about what the pricing actually is once you’re ready to convert.  In fact, doing either of those things is a great way to turn potential customers away.

Make sure you not only provide transparent information around pricing in obvious places like your website, but also make it easy to find in other places, like your paid advertisements. This will ensure you’re getting the most relevant, and most likely to convert, clicks, because these individuals will be fully aware the associated costs.

Take the example from Aaptiv below. Not only does this ad tell me what I would get through the service, but it also shares the cost twice. Even better, it lets me know right away that I can try out the product for free.

#5: Run Instagram and Facebook Ads to Your Target Audience

Hopefully this is not a ground-breaking piece of marketing advice. In fact, you may already be running these ads, but are you targeting your audience in the most effective way possible? The really neat thing about advertising on Instagram and Facebook is that you can get very specific in terms of narrowing down your audience to ensure your ads are showing to the right people, in the right location, at the right time.

Take the example below. Here, I’m targeting an audience of people within a specific zip code who are engaged shoppers, newly engaged, and interested in weight training and yoga.

This targeting allows you to make your content laser focused on this audience. For instance, in the example above, you can craft copy about your product speaking to newly engaged brides and grooms who are looking to get fit for their upcoming wedding.

This strategy adds another level of personalization to your advertising that makes your prospects feel heard and understood – and it may even compel them to convert!

#6: Boost Your Budgets during Key “Weight Loss” Seasons

If you are in the fitness industry, you’re likely often tailoring your marketing toward individuals who are looking to accomplish some weight-loss-related goal, whether it’s to drop a few extra pounds or to make a larger lifestyle change.

The thing about weight loss is that motivation often strikes during specific times of the year.  There are the most obvious times, like New Years and right before a spring break or beach season. But you can also think outside the box, like wedding season or once the post-Thanksgiving bloat sets in. It may be different depending on where your business is located (think about the changes in weather), and the trends that your organization has seen in that past. Take into consideration all of these factors and use it to your marketing benefit by boosting your budget during these key times. Also make sure to do a stronger marketing push by becoming organized with engaging and seasonally relevant campaigns.

#7: Go the Old Fashion Route and Mail Some Postcards

Call me old fashioned, but there is something to say about getting a beautiful postcard delivered right to your home mailbox. Not only do I get extremely excited when I get mail, but it also instantly catches my attention when something is personally addressed to me. While mail campaigns were a big thing back in the day, with the rapid-fire growth of the internet and online advertising platforms like Google, Twitter, and Facebook, it’s easy to throw mailing campaigns on the backburner (with the heat off).

Now is the time to get back in the mail game! Create a beautiful hand-written postcard addressing your lead by name and making them feel special. Whether you’re sending a season greeting or promoting a special entry offer, get creative with your mailing campaigns to spark the attention of your future customers.

#8: Provide a Trial, and Make Sure It’s Approachable

The biggest hurdle to joining a fitness program for many is not even financially related; it’s motivation related. It often requires changing a routine and lifestyle that one has lived and felt comfortable in for years. This is why you, as the fitness marketer, need to break down any entry barriers for your potential customers.

One great way to do this is by offering a trial that allows leads to try out your service for a set period of time. Whether you are promoting a physical location like a gym or an online app, there is typically a way to offer a trial period. And I’m not talking about a 30-minute consultation at your gym. Rather, allow new potential customers to come in for a week or so. Giving them time to make this decision will increase the chances of getting a contract signed. They’ll be able to actually start making a new fitness goal part of their day-to-day and see that it is possible if you allow them to test the waters before committing.

#9 Remarket to Remind Leads Why They Should Sign Up

One powerful tool that every fitness marketer should have in their toolbox is the power of remarketing! Remarketing will allow you to encourage those on the edge, interested, but not ready to commit leads to come back and learn more. As we’ve discussed in previous tips, it can be tough to commit to a new fitness product or service so reminding leads what they are missing out on in a gentle way is key.

Configure remarketing ads through Google and social networks, ensuring they are relevant to that audience segment. For example, if you are promoting a specific boot camp program make sure your ads are relevant to the leads who have been visiting those pages or interacting with related content. Keeping things as relevant as possible will ensure your remarketing ads don’t feel intrusive.

Tis the season to get your fitness marketing on track and turn all of your leads into your fit brand ambassadors who will be raving about how your product or service made an impact on their lifestyle and overall health. How powerful is that?

Aaptiv Review - Fitness Workout App With 1000's of Workouts

People’s goals are often not as simple as ‘I want to lose weight’ and Aaptiv has really catered towards individuals with a broad range of fitness goals.

Support

Aaptiv have an active community, which can be really encouraging if you’re feeling low on motivation – this is bound to happen occasionally in the cold winter months!

There is a Facebook group designed for Aaptiv members which currently boasts almost 33,000 members, offering support and encouragement. Being part of a fitness community will support you and your health and fitness goals; you can share your successes and failures and seek advice and key tips from likeminded people.

Why might Aaptiv not be right for you?

If you’re a complete beginner, you might struggle with Aaptiv. The app does not provide feedback on technique or form, and it’s so important to get this right at the beginning of your fitness journey.

If your posture is incorrect when performing certain exercises, this may lead to a serious injury. Proper form also ensures correct muscle targeting, and this is something that is difficult to communicate via an audio fitness app.

This could be problematic if you are new to strength-training, yoga or boxing. However, with workouts such as running and walking, Aaptiv can still be a great tool!

My Verdict on Aaptiv

Initially, I expected Aaptiv to be just another fitness app – however, I was proved wrong!

There are hundreds of fitness apps out there, all predominantly striving for the same things: convenience and affordability. Therefore, to find an app that stands out from the crowd can be challenging.

What sets Aaptiv apart from other fitness apps is the sheer number of sports, workouts and classes you can delve into, alongside the high standard of the fitness trainers.

The fact that Aaptiv have created a fitness community based around the app is a bonus; I love the motivational kick I get from seeing others smash their fitness goals.

I would class myself as an experienced runner and an intermediate at strength training and yoga, therefore this app was a great addition to my busy lifestyle. However, as previously mentioned, this could pose some challenges for a beginner; most fitness apps are visual, meaning the workouts are in the form of videos, and sometimes vocal cues can be confusing no matter how clear and concise they may be.

Luckily, Aaptiv offers a 30-day free trial, which gives you plenty of time to explore the app in depth and see if it works for you. My verdict? 100% give it a go – it’s a fun, engaging, and time efficientway to get your workout in!

A few days back, I was approached by Aaptiv – an audio fitness app that empowers you with the convenience of a personal trainer/motivator, right on your phone!

I was given the opportunity to try out their programs, which include a ton of indoor and outdoor workouts – combined with the guidance of a trainer and the perfect playlist. As soon as I completed my first workout session, I fell in love with the app!

Whether you’re camping out at a park, globetrotting from city to city, or nesting at home – this apps caters for all fitness enthusiasts, with over 100 mini workouts that work around your schedule.

Not sure about what to do at the gym today? Try the workouts curated for machines like the treadmill, elliptical, stair-climber and more. Don’t feel like hitting the gym today? No problem at all; try going for an outdoor run/walk or just spend some time stretching and doing Yoga. There is an unbelievably wide variety to choose from, and that is what I love most about this app!

These are a few of different options available on the app. You can either choose to do them randomly or take up the challenges given.

Not only are we provided with workouts consisting of background music and motivational instructors, but also with the option to filter classes according to our needs. The cherry on the icing? We are given information on the instructors; making sure that, together with the filters, we are choosing the workouts/classes that are best for us.

Aaptiv has, undoubtedly, become a fitness essential for me, along with other things.

So head over to Aaptiv and sign-up for their tailor-made classes. Best part? I have an exclusive 30-day free trial code for you all: ‘BURPEES‘!

Here’s a guide on how to redeem the code, if needed.

Give this app a try and let me know, in the comments section, what you think of it! 🙂

  Stay Happy. xx

7 Ways to Put Your Appetite on Cruise Control

Researchers believe that lack of sleep    Aaptiv Fitness Program Review    affects hormones related to appetite, thus causing you to gain pounds when you don't get enough sleep. On top of that, those who do not snack after dinner lose even  more weight and wake up more rested. If your body is busy digesting ice cream all night long, you are not getting a good quality rest.

Most of us mistake thirst for hunger. We are more willing to devour a box of cheez-its than drink a tall glass of water. If you just drink two more glasses of water a day, you will be amazed at the reduction in your appetite as well as your waist line. 

And no, soda pop is not a healthy alternative.Come on...you knew this was coming. Exercise does not just help you lose calories and weight, it also changes the way your body craves food and can actually suppress your appetite.

Best Fitness Apps

For this post, I’m rounding up 10 of the very best fitness apps, depending on your goals. Please share an app you’re loving in the comments section!

Hi friends! Hope you’re having a lovely week. In between the fun adventures we’ve been enjoying, I’ve also been able to catch some workouts in the gym. Usually when we’re on vacation, I just go with the flow, and get in a workout if it makes sense with our schedule. (For example, I pretty much never work out when we go to Magic Kingdom or Disneyland because the days are so full and we’re walking a thousand miles anyway. If we’re on a low-key vacation and there’s a studio nearby, I might be able to sneak in a class or two.) Since this is a longer trip and we have access to a great gym (and kids’ club!), I’ve been going for it. I know I feel better when I get in a sweat, and I change things up frequently and never get bored.

For today, I thought I’d share 10 of the best fitness apps, depending on your goals. If there are any apps you love, please let us know in the comments!

If you need to work on mobility: GOWOD

I recently downloaded GOWOD when I realized how stiff my muscles have been. I haven’t made yoga as much of a priority lately – I did purchase a month unlimited at a local studio for when we’re back in town – and have been more dedicated to spending at least 5-10 minutes each day on stretching and mobility work. This app is $11.99 per month, so it’s a little more pricey, but I think it’s an excellent complement to a solid strength or training plan. 

If you want access to the best instructors: Peloton

Oh, Peloton. We’re coming up on 2 years that I’ve used and LOVED this app consistently. It started off with the spin classes, since I used to use the app propped up on my spin bike. Then, I finally converted and bought a bike – my favorite purchase of 2018 – and since then, I’ve taken the spin classes at least 2-3 times a week. I also adore their selection of workouts, including strength, yoga, meditation, running/walking, and stretching. I’m pretty sure the app is around $20 per month (it’s more if you have a bike @ $36) but so worth it for the caliber of instructors, the music, and the variety. You can check out my full review of the app here. 

If you need a solid strength training plan: SWEAT

SWEAT is an app that I come back to if I just have a half hour to work out and don’t want to think about it. The workouts include simple movements that always challenge me and increase my heart rate. I love that they’ve added different formats over time, including Stronger (the gym version of the class BBG workout), PWR (long traditional strength training workouts at a gym), PWT at Home, Post-pregnancy, Fierce (gym-based combining strength and high-intensity), and Build (combining bodybuilding and powerlifting).

If you’re looking for variety: Tone It Up Studio

This app is $12.99 per month and includes HIIT, cardio, yoga, barre, and strength. You can choose any workouts On Demand, join live classes (and see who’s working out with you), and the workouts are categorized for an easy selection.

If you want to track your macros: Chronometer 

I’ve been using Chronometer for quite a while now, and like it even more then My Fitness Pal for macro tracking. It does have ads in the free version, but if you don’t mind clicking the little “x” every now and again, it’s no big deal. They have nutrient bubbles for you to fill each day, so this encourages me to eat more fresh foods instead of simply trying to hit macro numbers. The database isn’t quite as large as MFP’s, but it’s pretty easy to manually input nutrition stats for recipes. 

If you’re a beginner: Aaptiv 

These are audio-based fitness classes from personal trainers ($9.99 per month). I haven’t personally tried this one, but according to the reviews, the trainers are extremely motivational and the music is good. 

If you want to start running: C25k

Couch to 5k is a solid running and walking plan to build up to a 5k. This is an excellent app if you know you want to venture into racers or longer distances but aren’t sure how to do it. I used to use the old school plan when I first started running, and it really gave me insight into what I needed to do to build time and mileage while increasing my running endurance. It’s FREE and $1.99 to remove ads.

If you want to practice yoga more often: Alo Moves

This app includes a variety of yoga classes from top-notch instructors. This is perfect if you know you want to practice yoga more frequently but aren’t able to take studio classes due to price, childcare, or commute. This app also includes tutorials on how to safely build up to specific yoga skills and poses. I think it’s worth noting here that if you’re a yoga beginner, it’s worthwhile to check out a handful of live yoga classes just to make sure your alignment is correct and you can become familiar with the basic poses. 

If you’re looking for prenatal and postnatal fitness: Studio Bloom

This one is for all of my expecting and new mama friends out there! I personally haven’t tried this one because I found out about it after the girls were born, but it has excellent reviews. I also have to shout out my postpartum workout guide here if you’re looking for a safe postpartum plan. <3

If you want to set up your own interval workout: HIIT timer

This is a handy app for setting up your own interval or circuit training. I like to use 30-30 splits or 45-15 splits of work and rest and this way, I don’t have to think about the clock.

So, tell me friends: do you use any fitness apps? What do you usually use to set up your workouts?

Hope you have a great day and I’ll see ya in the morning with a new podcast episode + giveaway. Make sure you’re subscribed to the podcast here. <3 You can listen and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, Stitcher, and Google Play.

10 Things I’m Most Proud of From 2018

I got married this year after a short engagement. The proposal was captured on the Pure Barre national Instagram page, celebrating Valentine’s Day.

Aaptiv had a tremendous amount of coverage this year, perhaps more than you’d expect from a startup. It’s a testament to how flexible and durable this fitness brand is. We arranged for company profiles in CNN, The New York Times, and The TODAY show, among others, and we were mentioned as viable products to help get into shape on ABC News, GQ, Cosmo, Teen Vogue, Refinery29, and many other places. Our technology was also highlighted on Cult of Mac and Wareable.

This fall, we announced the launch of our app in 19 countries in addition to The United States. I secured coverage in Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, and Singapore, among other locations. We expect several more write-ups to appear in the upcoming January and February print editions of publications around the world. Stay tuned.

We helped tell the personal transformation stories of several of our members, including one man who explained to People how Aaptiv got him to lose 200 pounds. We had other friendly coverage about our members in Women’s Health, Reader’s Digest, and Moneyish. The Aaptiv community is unparalleled in their inspirational pursuits.

Our trainers also told leant their expertise to dozens of articles being worked on, acting as experts on everything from fitness to food. With 20+ trainers available to us for comment, we can stretch our expertise near and far. They were cited in stories on Shape, SELF, Insider, HealthyWay, MadameNoire, and more.

We began to tell our music story, about working with labels to give exposure to both new artists and veteran ones. This Forbes story covered well the close ties between music and fitness, and we extended our PR grip to places like Cosmo and Refinery29. We’ll continue to push in this direction in 2019, as opportunities turn up, since this angle remains of interest and largely underreported.

This year, we pushed Aaptiv’s growth and popularity with some key demographics. The first is mothers -- both those in a maternity cycle and working mothers. Parenting.com gave Aaptiv a plug, and a writer for Working Mother gave it a glowing review. We also began to speak to the senior crowd, as retirement years are evolving for the next generation. Our CEO spoke to MarketWatch about the changing fitness landscape, and HealthyWay named Aaptiv one of the best products for the 60+ crowd.

I spent a good deal of time in 2017 outlining for reporters (and in turn readers) what makes Aaptiv’s company culture so spectacular. In some ways, this is most rewarding work you can do, since it’s so central to the mission of the company and the day-to-day activity. I was quoted in The New Yorker talking about the seltzer wars. Our team chimed in on plant life in the office, and one of our executives talked to FairyGodBoss about career development. We also secured some wonderful coverage of events and activities championed by the different groups at Aaptiv: Black Affinity Fam hosted an event in August, and our LGBTQ group celebrated Pride in June.

This fall, we hosted both in person and virtually our annual 5K Your Way, a race designed to include people of all places in life, both geographically and physically. I was able to get some nice coverage of this event in the Los Angeles Times, Mac Observer, and a Sacramento radio station. In addition, a good selection of bloggers helped us to promote the event, with several participating in the event itself. 

In addition to encouraging participation in that annual race, bloggers tested our product throughout the year and told their various audiences about the countless benefits to choosing Aaptiv for workouts. We saw some men get back into shape after time away. We heard from some experts about why Aaptiv can help people achieve new new heights. And we read with keen interest about their motivational stories. You might not have heard before of some of these bloggers and reviewers, but it’s their stories that stand out from the pack as who we’re serving best.

It’s officially been a year since the global COVID-19 pandemic began, and out of all of the changes we’ve had to make to our daily routines, there’s one in particular that I’ll likely make permanent. I’m onboard to adopt virtual and in-app workout classes on a long-term basis. I love having access to hundreds (if not thousands!) of workouts that I can easily do anywhere, anytime, without ever having to step into a sweaty gym. If you’re looking to continue your at-home workouts for the foreseeable future, too, you’re in luck—you can currently get 30% off your first month of Obé Fitness. 

Get expert shopping advice delivered to your phone. Sign up for text message alerts from the deal-hunting nerds at Reviewed.

To get the deal, simply click this link to activate coupon code OBE30 and have the discount automatically applied when you sign up for the site’s monthly plan, dropping your first month’s cost down from its normal $27 per month to $18.90 (note that you’ll pay the normal cost of $27 per month after your first 30 days). You’ll also be gifted a free seven days before you’re charged for your subscription. 

That’s especially good news for Disney fans, as the site has launched a weekend-long class (through March 7) in collaboration with the house of mouse to celebrate its new movie, Raya and the Last Dragon. It’s no coincidence that this is taking place during Women’s History Month, either: Obé promises that these workout sessions “will inspire you to channel your inner warrior.” 

Although we haven’t reviewed the new classes that Disney and obé Fitness just launched together, we have tested the Obé Fitness app, which proved to be a solid choice according to our health and fitness editor, Sara Hendricks. Along with an appreciation for the easy-to-use structure and cheery color palette, Hendricks said they brought the burn, adding “Most importantly, [it] made me feel more excited about exercising at home than not—which is exactly what a workout app is supposed to do.”

Obé offers 22 live classes per day and more than 5,000 on-demand classes to its members. So in addition to the new movie-themed classes, you’ll gain access to all of the pilates, yoga, barre, cardio dance, boxing, HIIT and strength-training classes you can handle at this discounted price.

Sara loved the live classes in particular, noting that it helped to take the decision-making out of the process. Plus, Obé often schedules classes that complement each other well back-to-back (think a lower-body strength class followed by an upper-body strength class). So if you’re someone who’d rather not spend time scrolling (and scrolling. and scrolling.) through workouts in search of one that’s just right, you can just powerup Obé and access the day’s workout schedule without having to think twice.

At $27 per month, Obé is a bit pricier than other fitness apps we’ve reviewed, such as Nike Training Club, Peloton and Aaptiv, and some of the classes require additional equipment. But if you’ve got the basics for workouts like yoga and strength training, Obé is worth the price tag—especially with the first month’s discount and a free week to sample all the classes.
