What's your favorite app for motivation/exercising?

I'm using "Your Gym" which is the app that goes with You Are Your Own Gym.

I just found an app called "Virtual Walk" on Android. It essentially consists of pre-made virtual tours of different places, but you don't have to be at the places to do the tours. For instance, there is a Washington Mall tour, but I walked outside my apartment in Richmond and the distance I walked here showed up on a map of D.C. When I "walked" pass a memorial information and pictures come up about the landmark. I thought it would be really boring, but there is actually some really interesting content so far. (kind of feels like you are going on a guided tour). The app forces you to walk (or run) the required distance to unlock the information at the memorials/landmarks.

Here is a link it on google play:

Fitocracy is great. I like the PC version better than the app. Fitocracy is for logging exercise/activity and you get points for your workouts! Then you level up and get badges for completing different quests. You join groups and the groups have challenges. It's a really great community! You should join!

Pinterest is also good. I look at the 'Health & Fitness' page every day for motivational quotes and exercises. Check it out!

Zombies,run!

This, along with Endomondo app.

Instagram!!

I follow all the fitness pages and look at the things posted for motivation. Especially if I'm at the gym and ready to quit I look at all the motivational quotes/ fitness photos and I push myself to keep going.
It really does help!

Fitness pages? Interesting, I didn't know those existed on Instagram. I too use it for motivation. Take pics of self, upload to Instagram, see how big I still am, INSTANT MOTIVATION! :laugh:

I use Nike Training Club for workouts - I like that I can mix and match workouts depending on my focus for the day. They have workouts from 15 to 45 minutes long, and you earn badges and unlock new workouts for hitting milestones in minutes logged.

For running I like Nike+ - badges, tracking milestones and persona bests, and setting goals. Runkeeper is good too, I use it for tracking walking and running because I started with it first, and I have friends there who motivate me.

Just started using body media this week, and have it linked to MyFitnessPal to collect the dietary info. I have had issues with exercise equipment over reporting, under reporting and not picking up my heart beat. I figured this would be a consistent way for me to capture the data, without effort. I really like it. I have been playing with the workout feature as well, but I haven't found any audio "incentives" during exercise. But it is still relatively new to me.

The one thing that really surprised me is not that it has a sleep monitor, but rather that after five days of using it, I found out that I only sleep 6 hours a night. So I am having to make a conscious effort to understand why that is.
