There's an App For That

Today's society has placed a priority on the latest technology. It is something that has become part of our everyday lives, and it makes things easier. Well, it can also make calorie counting and monitoring our fitness much easier. There are many apps that are designed to help us with our fitness goals, however, not all of them are user friendly or highly beneficial, but here are a few that are.

My Fitness Pal Diary

1. My Fitness Pal
My Fitness Pal is an app that my family members, friends, and myself use daily. It allows you to calculate calorie intake for each meal of the day. You are able to scan the bar code of any food package and it will add up the calories. It also allows you to submit any type of workout that you did during the day and it lets you know how many calories that workout burned. It takes those calories off of your total calories for the day. I also find it handy because it tells you how many calories you've consumed throughout the day and how many calories you have remaining.

                                                         2. Six Pack Abs

Six Pack Abs

This app has nearly 20 core strengthening exercises that have life like animations demonstrating the correct form. This is helpful in ensuring you are doing to exercise correctly and it prevents injury. The app also allows you to choose music to sync to your workout, making your workout slightly more enjoyable. Also, it connects to "MyFitnessPal",  allowing it to automatically submit your workouts.

Sleep Cycle

3. Sleep Cycle
I believe that this app is such a good idea. The app tracks your sleeping patterns and can wake you up during a light stage of sleep to create an easier transition while waking up. It allows you to choose which music you'd like to wake up to. It can also tell you when you were awake or in deep sleep or light sleep throughout the night. Lastly, you can take notes on your day such as if you had coffee or were stressed out to see how it affects your sleeping
patterns.

These are all apps that I have used myself and are popular worldwide. I would recommend them to anybody from their teen years or older.
