Hi, guys welcome to another Workout Wednesday.Today,I’m sharing my favourite and easy to use weight loss tools, which will help you with your journey. And the best part? They are all free!
3 Weight Loss Tools I absolutely love
My fitness pal – This is a free app and one of my favourite weight loss apps, which you can download on your phone, or if you want you can make an account on the web.
What are the functions of this app? It asks you to enter your age, weight, height, activity level etc. Based on that – it will help you decide your daily calorie intake. This is the best Calorie counting app, the database is amazing! It has tons of Indian food. it also has a bar code scanner. (Now, if you are not sure how many calories does one serving of oatmeal has, all you have to do is scan and it’s right there!) You can also sync workouts with many other apps, Fitbit being one of them.
Nike App – this is my favourite app in regards to running . This can be used both indoors and outdoors. Although, you have to hold it in your hand throughout & be connected to the net. Your playlist also syncs internally, so no hassles! Another, good A very good app, for the same is Run Keeper. But, you can only use it outdoors.
Gym Boss Interval Timers – I’m sure you all know that interval training is the in thing today. This app, will help you to design your workouts, at your own pace.
Download this app from the App Store or Play Store.
Why these apps help
Nice One! I personally use the 30 day workout to get my basic exercises done and use Strava while cycling! I tried using the eating apps but somehow was never able to follow through! These apps that I use shows me the calories that I’ve burnt though!
Thirty day workout app is great too, but never really used it! Seeing the calories burnt is a feel good factor 😉
PS- tried commenting on your post but it keeps stoping me to complete my sentence!
I love my fitness app but I stopped using it after having my baby. Feeling guilty.
These fitness apps truly motivate and push you to do better. I am going to check out the Nike App.
I am looking for an App for walking that keeps running in the background once started. After a lot of trials, I have zeroed in on WalkLogger. It’s good, but I need to keep checking it whether it’s working or not.
I guess all apps have a tad of glitch! Been using MFP since 2012 & Nike one since 2013 – but at times it does act out 😉
Shilpa try using MaoMyWalk, its good!
Workout apps are motivating and push you to work harder. My fitness pal seems interesting to me.
nice post. .
Thanks 🙂
Myfitness Pal sounds interesting. I often feel if I could keep a live count of calories that I take in, I could do a better job at controlling them. And I think this app is definitely a great help. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure 🙂
I didnt know about these apps. I am going to install these first thing today. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. It is very inspiring to know all this.
Thanks Deepa 🙂
your blogs are so inspirational!! I look at them na then i look at myself nd i go damn, i need to change!
Thanks 😉 for finding them inspiring
When I started my workout regime , I had downloaded a fitness app, that tracks my diet & physical activity. It helped to initiate a regular routine. It’s good when one starts out as it is the time when one can lose focus. So these apps help. But now since exercise is a way of life for me, I do not require the external support of apps. I look forward to exercise and also the cheat days?
🙂 I love cheat days as well ?
I love the fitness pal app… Specially when it comes to food log. I have found it so useful to keep track of my weekly nutrition and if I am eating enough. Haven’t tried the other ones yet.
Yes it’s superb!
Now this sounds totally inspiring and motivating..Haven’t heard about these fitness app

Thanks ?
The best part of these apps are they motivate you to the core. Loved the blog.
My fitness pal is my go to app too
Fitness is the crucial part which we miss sometimes. I recently gifted my hubby with fitness smart watch through igp. It was really good.
Good information. I use fitbit. And it tracks most of my activity 🙂
My Fitness Pal app/website – it is awesome! But after a point, it gets tedious for me, and I find that I am not able to be consistent with it. But when I am, it works wonders. As far as activity tracking goes, I mostly rely on my fitbit.
I have a Fitbit, just have to get started with it! 🙂
Very useful post Z. I used MyFitnessPal some 4-5 years back and believe you me it worked wonders and then I got lazy. Your post is motivating me to do so now.
I use Strava for cycling and Nike for running and both are fabulous!
Thank you for the reminder post.❤️
I’m glad you liked it?
Not heard of Strava, but then I have not cycles in ages!
Thank you for motivation Z, m beginning my gym again from coming Monday. Have gained 9 kgs sitting at home and hogging… phew!!

Health Apps are becoming increasingly popular these days. I’ve used Obino – you can read about it here 🙂 http://confusedparent.in/losing-weight-with-your-personal-health-coach-app-obino-review/
I have tried one app for some months. It does keep a check on your eating habits and you eat carefully
I have only used MapMyRun 🙂 but I did find it useful. Hopefully, they haven’t deleted my account due to inactivity.
Wow….Will download this app…..very very useful app
I used My Fitness Pall app before moving on to Lose It app. It worked quite well for me!
I enjoy using the Nike app on my ipod as it lets me record my activity most accurately!
I too used to download these fitness app and they really work. Will check the apps you have mentioned!
So, I have never used any app when it comes to exercising and monitoring healthy foods . I do engage myself in lots of excercises and running , but thanks that you made me aware of the need to have these apps. Shall download them and use in my journey.
Had no clue about these apps, though heard from friends who are fitness freaks but had no idea about how helpful these are. Thanks for sharing.
Because of the busy schedule, it has been next to impossible to visit the gym in the last few months, thank you for sharing this blog was helpful and informative too, will surely try out few apps soon.
