Many of us are thinking of toning up as the summer months are just around the corner, but you don’t have to go any farther than the Internet to get your own digital personal trainer.
Some of the emerging trends on the web for personal trainers include dietary advice, developing a workout regimen, tracking tools, inputing health records, tips on what to eat, recipe suggestions, video demonstrations, mental health and even community sites where the “wisdom of the crowd” is utilized.
There are strengths and limitations of each website, depending on what your needs and desires are, but there’s no lack of one that would fit your profile.
Some web sites offering personal trainer services are Gyminee, Livestrong (Lance Armstrong), MyTrainer, HealtheHuman and WorkoutBOX.
