What's the best fitness app?

Ideally, I'd like one app that tracks both diet and activity. I currently use MyFitnessPal to track what I'm consuming and Strava, sometimes, for my workouts.

Gyroscope will give you the best overview of your health, but it works BEST if you integrate it into other apps. If you're looking for a fitness "app" I would have to ask what type of fitness? I think of fitness along the same lines as apple health. I also try to think of "low friction" data collection, so apps that take the least input and give the greatest in return. Activity: Moves App Sleep: Sleep Cycle Nutrition: MyFitness Pal (requires you to "log" food, but you can scan.) Mindfulness: Calm (requires you to "Start" a meditation to track.) My "fitness" stack photo here: Good luck. See more

Gyroscope lets me visualize my days and months with cool graphs and maps. It also integrates with Fitbit, MyFitnessPal, and Strava. Also tracks my music and productivity on my MacBook. Pretty cool because at the end of the month, I can see where I've been and how much time I've spent running, working at coffee-shops, commuting, etc. I really enjoy my Pro subscription because the developers behind it are always updating/fixing the app and talking to subs via a Facebook group.

I use Strava daily. The combination of social features, solid integration with Garmin and other fitness hardware, and helpful analytics makes it a killer (cheap) app for runners and cyclists.

Social features and wide adoption starting to eclipse other apps in category.

Freeletics

High intensity workouts & training plans

Elias V.Founder & CEO, MinuteHero · Written
Freeletics actually has an entire suite of apps for running, workouts (gym and bodywheight only) and nutrition as well. Their workout are not for the fainto of heart though!

I've been using Freeletics for a few months now and I definitely recommend giving it a go. The coach subscription now includes all of their apps (except Nutrition which you don't really need anyway, to be honest - you can find that info in a good book or nutrition blog). The Bodyweight exercises seem to randomly swing from 'kinda hard' to 'make you want to vomit' but I'm sure there is method to the madness!

My fitness pal. I love it. It's amazing if you are on a diet and really helps you keep on track. Just the act of recording everything you eat helps you stay committed to your goals.

This is my favorite new app, and it's made a huge difference in my workout routine! Great if you're into strength training and weight lifting!

Delightfully simple, fitbod tracks what muscles you've worked out, tracks what weights you do what exercises them at, pulls together a solid 30min workout and links you to simple youtube videos of how to do them.

Good design and idea, but the $40/year subscription fee made me look elsewhere.

Lifesum

Lifestyle tracker and calorie counter

Mike CoutermarshCode @ Product Hunt · Written
Would be worth checking out Lifesum also. I think you're already using the best apps available though 😀. I haven't found anything perfect for tracking both. I think it's a tough space since what people do for diet/exercise is generally so different. Too much to fit in a single app.

Alas, it won't track your nutrition, but I find Strong to be the best workout tracker I've found given my pretty basic needs (tracking reps, weight, time, etc). It's basically a special purpose database!

Easily the best workout tracker on the market. It has a great design and feature set. It uses a pay-once IAP unlock, which is way better than the shitty anti-consumer subscription models plaguing most competitors.

A beautiful HIIT workout app for people on the go

This was hunted earlier in the week. I've just downloaded it and looks like a great companion for travel! Assuming you're into the CrossFit style of working out...

Circuits has ton's of circuit training workouts. I built this for myself because I personally believe it's the best way to workout, if your goal is to get fit, strong and spend the least amount of time at the gym. I couldn't find an app that provides a shit ton of circuits (I get bored of doing the same stuff), which is why I built it, and scraped the Internet for literally every circuit existing. I don't do this as a way to promote my own side-project, I just think this is the best app for doing high-intensity training.

Although this app's UI is a bit dated , its scientific infrastructure is remarkable.Basically, it takes a number of parameters like weight,height etc, and guides you into undertaking a number of exercises of a variety of physical conditions such as Strength,Speed,Flexibility,Body Composition and Endurance and then calculates a customized exercise program tailored to the user depending on what the user wants to achieve i.e loose weight,built up strength or endurance etc. It's free to use but if you want to get to the advanced exercises you can get them for cheap like $2.99 if I remember right.So give it a try!

Lose It!

Snap a photo of your food to get nutritional facts

Not sure why the PH page focuses on one feature of the photo snap, but this is a competitor to MyFitnessPal that has been around forever, and has a much better database without the multitude of incorrect food entries you cannot edit.
