Other than bringing you to a whole new world of connectivity and mini-game adventures, your smartphones – be it on Android, iOS or Windows Phone – can also help you out in physical fitness activities to enable you to monitor your health, pulse rate perhaps, or stay fit.
From sports tracker to training apps, there is never a scanty supply of health-related apps from the Windows Phone powerhouse. As well as getting updated with the ever-changing technology trend that continues to immerse us in a flood of mobile devices – from handsets to wearable tech – leveraging modern resources to not lose track of our health status is equally important amid the hustle and bustle of the daily life.
So let us list down the top free Nokia Lumia apps to keep you fit and active! The free apps below have been chosen based on the aggregate reviews of users, vouching for their reliability and efficacy.
Runtastic
This app is your personal assistant for all outdoor activities including running, walking, hiking and biking, as well as indoor activities like treadmill and yoga. It tracks your progress in burning calories, for example. Runners can track their trail when training with the GPS-enabled app that records time, distance, speed and elevation. For indoor activities, simply enter your workout results and Runtastic will analyze the figures.
6 Week Training
The 6 Week Training app, or program in this case, aids users in their journey to achieving the Coca-Cola figure everyone seems to be longing for. It includes training exercises such as Hundred Pushups, Two Hundred Situps, Two Hundred Squats, Hundred Fifty Dips and Twenty Pullups. The program lets you take an initial evaluation that monitors your activities to determine which workout is right for you. The Exhaustion Test ensues during the next four weeks to indicate how well you’ve progressed. You can see your progress on the logs and charts. The app has a SkyDrive Backup and Schedule Reminders as ancillary features.
Gym PocketGuide
The app is powered by Bodybuilding.com, which provides the workout encyclopedia right in your pocket! Gym PocketGuide contains more than 90 exercises with accompanying images, videos and guides to help you take care of your health and figure. The app features a seven-day workout program tailored to the needs of both men and women. Plus, the app works even without Internet connection. Mobility at its best!
Sleep Bug
This white noise machine brings you to 24 virtual scenes with more than 300 sound effects to let you find the best ambiance when drifting off. Added features of Sleep Bug include clock and date display, sleep timer and internal volume control. Some of the virtual scenes include the Zen Garden, river, forest, beach, jungle and a lot more.
Emergency Kit
Disaster comes at the most unexpected moments, whether we like it or not. Although we can’t prevent it, from a realistic viewpoint, we can do something to respond to emergency situations. Emergency Kit helps you do that by storing your most critical data, including blood type, allergies, medications, any notes, and emergency contacts in your handset. The app can also turn your device into an SOS light beacon. When you’re lost in a strange place, the GPS-enabled app can send emails to your nearest contacts.
