Where is the cross-training/arc trainer option?
I've been using a Cybex Arc Trainer recently as opposed to an elliptical machine. This machine is nasty, and gives me quite a run for my money. However, this website doesn't have it as an option for exercise! This is annoying... and so I've had to track elliptical machine as my workout.

Workout/Lifting Apps?
I have found one app that I like for lifting/resistance training (JEFIT),but I'm wondering if you have any others that might be even better. What I like about JEFIT is that it actually has a little exercise demo so my clients can see the move to do on their own, without me. I also like how it tracks your weight, reps, and…

Is this kickboxing or aerobic dancing?
I've been following a kickboxing video online in the mornings for exercise, but I just started an aerobic dancing class and it felt the same as the kickboxing.
