There's an app on the IPhone called "workout" by Diglapp. It gives you ab, leg, butt, arm and cardio workouts that you can do at home. You can select how long you want the workouts to be. It has a timer to tell you when to switch exercises and shows you how to do each one. You can select which workout to do or you can do the whole cycle. Check it out!

    Download Nike Training Club--it's free and has over 60 workouts for different levels. You do not need a gym for this and the more you do it, you'll unlock bonus workouts.

    Keep in mind, it will take a while to download!

    yeah, the ntc does take a while to download.
    I have to confess i have it, but haven't used it in uhm, almost a year. that's where good intentions will take you.

    I use RunKeeper though. It logs running and walking (cycling, hiking, etc). At the end of the workout, it will show you a map of your route, a breakdown on how fast you went throughout, calories burned, average speed etc.
    it has a coaching feature which will give you audio cues for interval training (c25k for example), this by distance or by time. it also has a feature where you can set what speed you want to be running at. I haven't explored the entire app, but i think it is definitely worthwhile if you are thinking of starting out running.
    Just a reminder though - any gps driven app will be more accurate if you turn wifi off.

    I had it for a while before I used it, too! Beginner level will humble you, that's for sure. I also have Runkeeper, but I just use that mostly for walking as I also have a C25K app. But if you're outside, your wifi would be off anyway. Any time I'm away from my house, my phone is on 3G. However, definitely make sure your phone is charge to almost 100% before using.

    Oh, and another FREE app is Fleetly Fitness--you can compete against other members. I don't do that, but they have tons of workouts in there. I think people plug them in, but they do have P90X, 30 Day Shred, Crossfit, and lots more!

    Yeah, I'm kind of an app *kitten*! lol

    Forgot to post this--if you want to take up running, get chased by Zombies while doing so!

    The phone trying to find a wifi signal still throws off the gps - it is also why it is using so much battery. Try switching it off before you go out ;)

    I'll have a look at fleetly though :)

    I have my phone set up not to join other networks--Is that the same or are you saying have that off AND turn off Wi-Fi? I'm not trying to argue, just curious cuz I'm all about saving the battery life also! :smile:

    not sure 100%, mine doesn't join, but it will detect other networks.
    i just know when i turn wifi off completely, it uses about 10% instead of 50% per run, even if listening to music, and it is way more accurate. if wifi is on, i lose the gps signal for minutes at a time, and have to recharge the battery as soon as i get home...
    in the forum about the app, the recommended solution was to turn wifi off.

    does anyone use the nike running app?
    with the shoe sensor?
    is the sensor worth getting?

    I used the shoe sensor, I loved it!!! I had it on my iPod touch, than I got a new iPod touch and for some reason it wasn't on there, and I couldn't find the app. I couldn't even tell you where my sensor is now LOL. We just got iPhones a few weeks ago that came with the Nike app, and dang it I wish I knew where my sensor was. Guess I'm gonna have to get a new one.

    Thanks for all these great suggestions

    It's all in your settings. Depending on what you have it set as it will either ask you to join other networks or not :)

    I have gym boss, its a little interval timer and its pretty useful.

    Yeah, I don't have mine set to join other networks. I charge my phone every night and do my workouts mid morning, so I'm never less than 70% after I've done outside workouts. I've gone on a 7 mile hike and by the end of it, I still had some battery life.

    Anyway, carry on iPhone users! :)

    I've started using gainfitness.com and the iphone app.

    It works with runkeeper.

    It's a pretty cool app so far.
