iPhone and iPod touch can be useful when you are thinking about working out in a gym. There are many applications that are available in the App Store that could be really handy. The one particular I really find very useful is the GymGoal. This app could be a great substitute for a personal trainer. It has everything one need to get started on a workout in gym – extensive animated exercise database, workout routines, tracking progress and measurements.

This app offers a lot of information one small package. Some of excellent features include:

• 250 resistance (strength training) exercises, plus 24 cardio exercises. You can add your own exercises. You can add your pictures to any exercise.
• Animations (installed on the device), illustrations, step by step instructions and performance tips.
• 39 workout routines. You can add your own routines.
• Comprehensive tracking system for strength and cardio workouts.
• Body measurements tracking. Additional custom measurements – track anything you want.
• One-rep Max, BMI, BMR, Body Fat Percentage calculators and progress tracking.
• Progress tables and graphs are provided for everything from workout logs to measurements to calculators.
• Ability to send workout logs to your email.
• Ability to back up your data to gymgoal.com (free) to prevent any data loss.
• Three independent timers that can be used anywhere in the application.
• Workout scheduling.
