The Best Fitness Program *****
by David Wilfret - Lite Version 4.0 - Mar. 24, 2009
Based on reviews, I originally bought GymGoal Lite. It was a very good program; however, I was disappointed that it did not let me track cardiovascular. I switched to iFitness; however, I was disappointed as many of my exercises (dumbells) were not listed. I have since switched back to GymGoal Lite and happy with all of the upgrades. Cardiovascular exercises can now be tracked, all of my exercises are listed, workout programs can be downloaded / emailed / charted and good pictures / animations of the exercises. From this program, I have found new exercises to do. Based on me reading reviews and trying out the above mentioned programs, I would definitely recommend GymGoal Lite.

GymGoal can substitute a human trainer. Its database includes 250 exercises. Simply choose a body part, tap on an exercise, and you are presented with pictures, animations, step by step instructions and performance tips. You can also search by name, equipment type, movement type, difficulty level, or a combination of all above. If you don't see an exercise you like, just add your own.
Do you want to change your workout routine, or you don't have one yet? Our fitness experts have included 39 routines that are adjusted to four levels of expertise, all of which can be done using three different types of equipment. You can further adjust these routines, or add your own.
Want to track your progress? Tap the Log button and easily record your progress.
The GymGoal workout tracking system is very flexible and powerful. You can log separate exercises or routines. You can mix cardio and resistance exercises. You can edit your past logs and move them to different dates. You can also add notes to your logs, and reuse your past notes.
You can review your workout on any date in the past, and you can track your progress for any exercise. Tables and charts (graphs) show your progress for many parameters like One-rep Max, total weight lifted, time, distance, heart rate, and more. Body map in the workout history helps you to find muscles that you neglect.
Your logs can be sent to your email in a tab-delimited text file, ready for import into any spreadsheet.
Chart your progress with GymGoal by entering your body measurements. You can record measurements from both sides of your body (for example your right bicep and your left one), and track them separately or just track the average value. Additional custom measurements allow you to track anything you want (Weight Watcher points, calories consumed...).
You can backup all your data to our server. If anything happens to your iPhone or iPod Touch, you will be able to restore all your data. This feature is completely free and not limited in time.
GymGoal also gives you several fitness calculators. Why litter your iPhone with all those apps that only track one number? With GymGoal, you can calculate and track BMI, BMR, TDEE, Body Fat Percentage, Target Heart Rate and One Rep Max.
GymGoal provides you stability and premium features that are heads above the competition.
