Garmin launches Fit App, motivates you to lose that freshman fifteen

Garmin, the company responsible for helping you navigate to the mall food court, is now hoping to help you work off those cheese fries with the introduction of its $.99 Fit App for Android and iPhone. The mobile app -- which works a lot like the Nike+ -- measures distance, time, calories and speed walked, run, cycled or traveled to capture your calorie burning journey. Connected users can also set goals, track their workouts and share results with others addicted to the burn. In addition to the app, Garmin is rolling out a $49.99 ANT+ adapter for iPhone, which monitors heart rate and cadence when paired with another optional sensor like a footpod.

    Cool...this would have been useful BEFORE I bought my Garmin HRM. Not gonna lie - the Garmin's are pretty awesome, and the ANT+ stick that allows you to upload your workouts into their software is very helpful!
