Do you have an app for that?? I do, I really like Workout Trainer by Skimble (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skimble.workouts&hl=en) Lots of exercises, you can make your own workouts as well as download readymade workouts. It has voice prompts that will either tell you how to do the exercise or just tell you what is next. You can set how long to do each exercise and in what order, you can also post your workouts to facebook/twitter, etc.

I also like to use Endomondo (http://www.endomondo.com) for tracking my walks, it will track the route you go, speed, distance, and time. You can also look for routes made by others in your area and it has lots of exercises that you can choose from so it will give you an idea of calories burned.

What app do you use?

Edited to add that I use the free versions of both of these, so the paid versions I'm sure have more features. 8-)

    I use Endomondo for tracking my runs outside.. and thats about it for workout apps.

    I have myfitness pal, and a yoga app that I've never used but prob. should!

    Edited to add: Forgot about Simple C25K.. I'd be lost without that app!

    I'm an android person. I use 'Runkeeper' to track my long walks and 'Simple C25K' for learning to run.
    These are super-usefull ( and may be turning me into a cyborg. ie: " Oh no, I want to go running but forgot to charge my phone, guess I'll have to stay home and power-up.).

    I have started the c25k several times, but I am just not a runner. LOL. I will use any excuse to not go running!!

    I use You Are Your Own Gym. I'm not a runner either and it gets me motivated to do basic calisthenics.
