10 Cool Things You Can Do with VidaOne Apps

Our apps come with many, many features, and here are a few practical and useful things you can do with them.

1. It’s one thing to find the time to exercise, it’s another to find the motivation to keep going. There’s no better way to re-energize yourself than reviewing your past workouts, your hard work, your tenacity and your progress. Enter as much information as you can when working out and use MySportTraining and VidaOne Diet & Fitness calendar, reports, charts, list of your best workouts, etc., to give you an immediate snapshot of your past efforts. If you were able to do it then, why not now?
   
   
2. VidaOne apps allow you to track a lot of information, but you can also create your own custom fields! Use VidaOne Diet & Fitness to track any value that matters to you. You can then synchronize these custom fields and use them with MySportTraining and MyPersonalDiet.
   
   
3. Organize your workouts by creating new activities, such as Upper Body, Lower Body, Spinning, and entering the proper exercises/intervals in each of them. When you hit the gym, simply recall those activities and you will immediately see exactly all of what you did the last time. You can then try to add a few more reps or a little more weight to build up toward your goal.
   
   
4. Get a heart rate monitor to see how your body works when working out. Average and maximum heart rates give you a good indication of the actual work on your body (the perceived exertion is often misleading), and the ability to review your heart rate during the workout enables you to fine-tune your training. You can download Polar and Garmin heart rate monitor data into VidaOne Diet & Fitness to analyze your workouts in great details.
   
   
5. Track intervals with your cardio workouts. In as much as strength training consists of performing a variety of hard exercises with short rest periods, effective cardio training can be achieved by doing some very intense cardio exercises (which are called intervals) with brief periods of rest in between. You can track them all in MySportTraining and VidaOne Diet & Fitness.
   
   
6. If you are using a Garmin monitor, download your workouts into VidaOne Diet & Fitness to see the route in Google Maps and look at your heart rate during your workout. You can also sync with your iPhone to show the route to your friends later on.
   
   
7. If you start to have pain when running, or experience shifting issues on your bike, you might have to change your gears. Use VidaOne Diet & Fitness and MySportTraining to create workout gears, such as running shoes, or bike chain. Then select them in your workouts , and their usage (distance or duration) are automatically calculated. You can immediately find out if they are due for replacement before problems happen.
   
   
8. Use MySportTraining or MyPersonalDiet on your iPhone, Windows Mobile or Palm OS device to track meals, workouts and health data on-the-go, and synchronize all of it with VidaOne Diet & Fitness on your PC to review and analyze them in order to achieve your goals.
   
   
9. Use MySportTraining or MyPersonalDiet for iPhone to record an outdoor workout route, using the iPhone location-based capabilities. You can see the duration, distance, speed, even the route as you go.
   
   
10. If your doctor orders some blood work, even once in a rare while, make sure to track it in VidaOne Diet & Fitness and especially MyPersonalDiet. This enables you to build your health history over time that you can carry with you. Reviewing labs results along your health history gives your doctor the best information to make the right decisions for your health future.
