It isn’t much you can do for your body that is better than getting in shape, staying in shape, and working out. It lowers all of the bad things (cholesterol, blood pressure, etc) and heightens all of the good things (muscles, stamina, etc). Owning an Android device won’t do these things for you but there are plenty of apps that can help you along the way. These apps have become shocking good as well. Unfortunately, they also tend to be shockingly expensive. Here are the best Android fitness apps and workout apps.
General fitness apps Google Fit Price: Free Google Fit is a bit of a lame pick, but it’s extremely serviceable and it’s one of the better free fitness apps. It can do a lot of stuff. You can track your fitness using a point system as well as active minutes. The app also features fitness goal tracking, customized tips, and integration with a variety of other apps like Runkeeper, Strava, MyFitnessPal, and others. You even get support for some hardware like Wear OS smartwatches and Xiaomi Mi https://medium.com/@fugenx36/best-andriod-apps-for-fitness-6588fb7edb5d

Runtastic has one of the best running apps on mobile. However, they have spent a good portion of the last couple of years adding to their collection. Runtastic now maintains apps for water intake reminders, a HIIT workout planner, and healthy food recipes. There are individual exercise apps for things like push-ups, cycling, and pull-ups. It rounds it all out with a sleep tracker app and even an individual timer app. They all worked well when we tested them. Some of them have single costs, some are free, and some fall under Runtastic’s monthly (or yearly) subscription. There are a ton of fitness features in these apps. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!

MyFitnessPal Price: Free / $9.99 per month / $49.99 per year MyFitnessPal is one of the most popular fitness apps on mobile. It does a little bit of everything.

It also tracks basically any exercise, connects to dozens of other devices and apps, logs and tracks your progress, and it even has little things like workout timers and step tracking. It’s expensive at $9.99 per month. However, there are few fitness apps or even diet apps with the level of depth and integration that MyFitnessPal has. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!

Price: $4.99 + Varies You Are Your Own Gym (stylized as YAYOG) is an above-average workout app for home use. It features a variety of exercises with equipment requirements aside from a normal chair. The app features over 200 exercises organized into various categories. There is also an optional (and free) plugin to add video demonstrations of each one. This one is a little old and the UI isn’t great. However, it has a single cost and it should work for just about everybody. Of course, those going to a gym with actual equipment may want a different app to give them exercise routines. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!
Bodybuilding apps and strength training apps JEFIT Workout Tracker Price: Free / $6.99 per month / $39.99 per year JEFIT is a workout trainer and tracker app. It functions well for most fitness routines.

be an above-average running app on its own anyway. However, this one is also entirely free and that kind of elevates it above most of its competition. Other apps have more features, but if you want the basics and don’t want to pay anything, this is the one for you to try. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!
Runkeeper Price: Free / $9.99 per month / $39.99 per year Runkeeper is one of the most popular running apps. It’s one of the biggest competitors to Runtastic.

It’s a little expensive, but it does everything you could want in a running app. Those looking for a lighter experience may want to try Nike+ Run Club first.

Zombies, Run! Price: Free / $3.99 per month / $24.99 per year Zombies, Run! is one of the most enjoyable running apps ever. The app tells an interactive story that requires you to run from the zombie horde. The longer you go, the more storyline you unlock.

So it does function as a fitness app. The pro version unlocks over 300 story missions and a couple of different play modes. Running doesn’t have to be all business all the time and this app proves it. Those who don’t mind potentially stopping can also play Pokemon Go and similar AR games that require real-world travel and participation. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!

FitNotes is an excellent fitness tracker app. It works offline and requires no account sign-ups or anything like that. It’s highly customizable, works for both cardio and resistance exercises, and it includes a calendar for workout planning. The UI is serviceable and good looking. It even supports cloud backups with Dropbox and Google Drive Really, there is very little actually wrong with this one. It’s a little more manual than some other fitness apps. However, it gets everything else right. The premium version is for supporting the developer, but it doesn’t add any more features. DOWNLOAD ON GOOGLE PLAY!
