Consider factors like cost, workout style, and ease of use when choosing an app, and don’t be afraid to try a few to see which one suits you best. Remember, the most important step is to stay consistent and enjoy the journey towards a healthier lifestyle. Apps like Nike Training Club and FitOn offer high-quality workouts for free, making them great choices for beginners who are hesitant to spend money on fitness programs.

Overall Rating: 4.4/5

This prevents you from losing track during your workout and mentally prepares you for the next exercise. The app also connects to your Apple Watch to provide health metrics such as your heart rate and logs your activities. Chris Hemsworth, Hollywood’s Thor, helped develop the Centr app along with a team of experts. While you can work out like an ancient god, the app acts like a 24/7 virtual fitness coach tailored to your goals and experience, including meal planning and daily workout programs.

Flex also offers a custom plan builder so you can modify or build your fitness program.

Before choosing an app, you should think about what you expect to get out of it. If you have no problem motivating yourself, you may do just fine with an app that provides pre-made programs to follow on your own. If you’re going to be training in your garage gym, you’ll want to carefully consider what sort of home gym equipment may be required for the app you’re considering. Many apps have minimal requirements, and are designed to work with only your bodyweight and some light dumbbells.

It’s essential to consider a few things before starting a new workout routine. Every workout is programmed for muscle growth and fat loss – with guided demos so you lift correctly, every time. AI-driven progressive overload that adjusts in real time – so you keep growing without burning out. Other apps, however, expect you to have access to a barbell, squat rack, and bench, at minimum, or even a fully-equipped commercial gym. Before committing to anything, make sure you have access to all of the equipment required for the app you wish to use. This level of customization and personal touch can enable you to stay focused on your goals, and you can rest assured that each workout you complete has been tailored to help you get closer to them.

By contrast, many workout apps connect you with professionals who can help guide you through and program a custom workout plan for your specific preferences. You won’t have to worry about coordinating with a personal trainer or dashing out of work to catch your favorite class. With an app, you can complete your workouts any time of day—first thing in the morning or on your lunch break—it’s totally up to you. Our product testers were tasked with evaluating multiple fitness apps and rating them on a 1-to-5-star scale across a variety of categories.

  • Much like Caliber’s Premium coaching option, with Future you can send your coach a video of yourself lifting directly through the app for each specific movement so your coach can check your form.

Our tester appreciated this, as the app pushes you to master your current workout before moving on. IFIT’s cheaper tier is more affordable than the average workout app, but the app’s self-guided nature might not be a fit for everyone’s training style. In terms of cost, there’s the $15 monthly iFIT Train plan and unimeal.reviews the $39 monthly iFIT Pro plan. The biggest difference here is that the Train tier lets you create your own workouts and is available on equipment touchscreens. This helps the app earn a 4 out of 5 from our tester in the value category. The BetterMe app is Pilates-focused workout app aimed toward beginners.

Nike Training Club remains one of the most accessible fitness apps available today. It includes hundreds of guided workouts designed for different fitness levels. If you want to improve your health by practising Yoga, Glo’s 5000 classes and more are ideal. Additionally, you only need to download the app and take a quick quiz to map your personalised plan.

It was created for athletes to improve flexibility and is particularly popular among CrossFit enthusiasts.

Testing Apps Before Committing Fully

There are workout programs available on FitOn, but they’re shorter ones—about 2 to 4 weeks long. That’s not enough time to make much progress.” Also, the community feed is present and available, but basic, earning just a 3 out of 5. Still, the amount of workouts you get with this app may still be worth it. As for accountability and interactive features, there aren’t a lot in this running app. Push notifications are present, and you can create and join plans to help with holding yourself accountable—but that’s only present in the premium version.

This guide will explore some of the best fitness apps for beginners, including features, costs, and where to download them. We’ll also give you insights on why these apps stand out and how they can benefit you on your fitness journey.
