in Fitness and Exercise
Does anyone know of any apps/devices that are great motivators to exercise? I used to have a striiv and really enjoyed the challenge of My Land (need to keep exercising to get coins and energy to build My Land) however no longer have the Striiv as it stopped working.

Can anyone recommend a similar motivational game (ideally on Android phone) that makes exercising interesting and motivational?

I am restarting my "New Me" goal and obviously need to exercise as part of my life change.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What sort of exercise do you do? If you run/walk/cycle you could listen to Zombies, Run! (https://www.zombiesrungame.com/) I listen while rowing. It's a post zombie apocalypse story where you're part of a group of survivors and you go on missions to collect supplies and information. It's highly entertaining.

    So far I only walk. Hopefully will progress to running.

    I'll take a look at the zombie game, thanks :)

    I second a vote for Zombies Run! It is fantastic, they even have an interval training option where zombies chase you so you have to go faster for a period of time, you can turn this option on or off. For walking you may also be interesting in "The Walk" by the same makers.

    Fitocracy? Not really a game but more of a log.
    You get points per logged workout (amount of points depends on the amount of excersise).
    You can challenge others to exercise duels, do quests (like walking for 10 accumulated miles) and more.
