Weight loss exercises under the guidance of an experienced coach have a number of advantages over independent ones for both beginners and experienced athletes. The first one does not need to think about what to do and how, you just need to come to the gym and follow the coach's commands. The second coach will help to avoid the training routine and boredom by changing the exercise complexes and loads in time. However, the virtual trainers to whom this series of articles is dedicated are also quite capable of surprising us. For example, the Sworkit service is one of the simplest and at the same time flexible training applications that I have come across.
The main charm of Sworkit lies in its epic simplicity. Here you will not be tormented by registrations, filling out questionnaires, scrupulous preparation of plans and studying columns of statistical data. From the moment the app is launched to the start of the workout, you will need to make only three clicks.
Step 1. Choose the duration of the workout. In the drop-down list, we can select values from 5 to 60 minutes. This approach is very convenient for carrying out both unscheduled warm-ups and scheduled classes. We look at how much free time we have, choose the appropriate workout.
Step 2. We choose which part of the body we will work on. We have a choice between Full Body (whole body), Upper Body (upper half), Core Strength (body), Lower Body (lower part), Stretching Only (stretching), Anything Goes (a combination of all exercises), Yoga (yoga).
Step 3. Click on the Start button.
During the training, we are consistently offered exercises, while each lasts only 30 seconds. However, do not rush to smile disdainfully: the exercises replace each other without any rest and only every five minutes a 30-second break is given. Thus, the load turns out to be quite serious, especially if you do not filonit and try to perform exercises efficiently and intensively.
Each exercise is accompanied by drawings illustrating the process of its execution, as well as two timers — the time of the exercise and the total time of the lesson. There is also a Pause button to pause the countdown (especially useful in the initial period) and skip the exercise.
In the database Sworkit has quite a sufficient number of the most diverse exercises for all muscle groups, without requiring any equipment. But the most beautiful thing is that the set of exercises is generated for you each time differently, so you will never have to monotonously perform the same familiar sequence.
In addition to the online service, Sworkit provides the opportunity to practice using an iPhone or Android, for which you can download the appropriate applications.
In my opinion, Sworkit is one of the best virtual fitness trainers. Combining the amazing simplicity and at the same time considerable variability of the training complexes offered, this application allows you to train at any time and in any place convenient for you. At the same time, these workouts will definitely not bore you!
