Fact: the very first sit-up is the hardest. After that they practically do themselves.
That’s clearly not a fact. However, as a gym trainer will tell you, attitude is important when exercising. It explains all the positivity surrounding the PYMNTS Provider Ranking of Fitness Apps.
We’ve got a game of inches as big fitness apps flex their digital lats and delts to attract downloads from battalions of couch potatoes who are ready to look and feel fit again.
Slap on those cross-trainers, skip the warm-up, and let’s do some ranking reps.
The Top 5
Sometimes we work up a sweat in the Top 5, sometimes not. This month it’s just a quick tone-up for apps that have settled, for the moment, into uppermost chart positions.
From the top it’s still GPS-equipped Strava: Run, Ride, Swim at No. 1, with the My Fitness Pal app holding at No. 2, and unpretentious Planet Fitness Workouts carefree at No. 3.
No. 4 remains occupied by FitOn Workouts & Fitness Plans and its many celebrity trainers.
New at No. 5 is Map My Run By Under Armour, rising two spots to close out this Top 5.
The Top 10
The FitCoach app sits serenely at No. 6 for another month, kicking off a run in the lower reaches of this update to the Provider Ranking of Fitness Apps.
Now, a few changeups to the workout routine. Workouts By Muscle Booster drops two spots to see the view from No. 7. Meanwhile, the Nike Training Club app just jumps up a spot to No. 8.
At No. 9 is Runkeeper — GPS Running Tracker, down one chart position from a month ago.
Bookending this Provider Ranking of Fitness Apps is Sweatcoin Walking Step Counter, still perspiring healthily at No. 10.
It just goes to show that even the droopiest digital dilletante can shed those “COVID 19 pounds.”
We’re always on the lookout for opportunities to partner with innovators and disruptors.
