Freeletics Review – New & Improved Features Raise the Bar on Home Fitness Apps
For the past few years, I’ve been a total fitness app junkie. I have always loved the convenience of being able to work out from home with just my trusty exercise mat and phone. But these days, the home workout trend is more popular than ever. In fact, according to a recent survey organized by Freeletics (via Onepoll) 74% of Americans have used at least one fitness app since quarantine began – and for 41% of them, it was their first time using one.

Jillian Michaels App Review: Like Having Your Very Own Celebrity Trainer
Whenever I hear about Jillian Michaels, I’m taken back to circa 2009 when her fitness DVDs were sweeping the nation. It even convinced a cardio bunny like me to pick up a pair of dumbells and give strength training a go. And I did love the results I saw with some of those DVDs (You can see my full review of one such DVD here.) But there was one problem: What do you do after you finish the videos?
