Sport And Fitness / / December 19, 2019
As I said, earlier relationship with a run, I had not really warm, and one of the main reasons for this was the tedium of the process. Now I had the opportunity to make this activity more interesting by using a variety of mobile applications running. If earlier I just ran and did not understand, nor how far I ran, how long it took, how many in After all, the calories I burned, but now all that is built in the beautiful graphics and a pleasant female voice informed through every 5 minutes. Almost every girl with a little bit sporty experience automatically translates in his head these the number of calories in cakes and chocolates in terms of 100 g, which she can not afford Today. And, accordingly, the reverse is much less pleasant, counts as additional cm. And it already makes the process run more interesting and brings the spirit of competition even with himself.
Why, of all the applications I chose Runkeeper? Because one of its biggest advantages is the support of the third iPhone firmware. At first I was mown on Endomondo, but the app has given me politely rebuffed, referring to the possibility of my older phone. Also, as it turned out, quite a lot of my friends are using this application and I finally make a choice. Of course, there are pros and cons, but the pros while longer.
A little thought, we decided to pay Elite account for a month, as it allows you to embed on any website graphics card and my jogging. There is this possibility of 4.99 dollars a month or $ 19.99 per year. plus fitness classes are available. If for you it is not so important, you can easily use the free Standard version.
