May I suggest a new feature that I don't see in the fitness apps i've checked out. I listen to a lot of athletes on podcasts (JRE) and they always talk about proper form and its importance for taking care of your body. In things like yoga you could be damaging to your joints, spine, or muscles. Maybe have "exercise tips" or "learn how" section/videos. I know some exercises are intuitive and may not need this. Just throwing ideas.
- flipchart 12y agoThis is so important. It's incredible the difference it makes to the difficulty of the exercise let alone the damage you prevent to your body. What would be awesome to take this idea a step further and create a Kinect app (or perhaps some other related/similar tech) which could determine if you are executing the correct form and make suggestions about how to correct yourself. This could also be used to monitor your progress in getting more flexible (e.g. in yoga). EDIT: Obviously, not applicable to this app, but the idea stands nevertheless
