Amazing iPhone App for Cardio -Changed My Workouts Forever!

selfmedicated2 · September 2012

Last night I was looking through some exercise topics on MFP, and stumbled upon a recommendation for the BeatBurn app. I downloaded it on a whim, and WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you do cardio workouts, you need this app: it's called BeatBurn (there are unique versions for the elliptical, treadmill, and bike), and it uses your own iPod songs to create a customized workout utilizing beats-per-minute. There's an instructor that takes you through the workout, so it's essentially like your own private spinning-style class, but on your machine of choice and with your music! SO FUN -- loved my workout this AM!

I was getting in an elliptical rut (due to a foot injury my cardio options are limited) and now I am already looking forward to "Day 2" tomorrow -- the app says the workouts progress as you go along, so we'll see how Day 2 is different vs. today's Day 1 workout.

Is anyone else using BeatBurn? I'm obsessed. Thank you to the MFP community for turning me on to this amazing invention! :-)

Going to the app store...searching for BeatBurn...Ooops it's $3.99. Not a bad price for what is does, but need more iTunes cards. If I put a credit card with my apple ID, I'll be broke.

Thanks for sharing though

Good call, I definitely should have mentioned that part!! But a $3.99 one-time payment for what's essentially a cardio personal trainer still feels very cool too me. Or maybe I'm just excited about my shiny new toy ;-)

It looks like it's just available for iTunes/Apple right now, but the interface is so easy-to-use and the programs are so complex, I'm sure it's a big-time investment that they'll leverage over to Android in the future.

LOL, I have resisted getting an itunes account for years for this reason!

Anyways, sounds like a cool app... will look for an Android version
