Is there nothing that the iPhone can’t handle? Is there no area yoga cannot penetrate? :p From the Wii to the iPhone, yoga is at our fingertips – literally! iPump Yoga (made by FitnessBuilder) is a workout application that features several readymade yoga workouts – complete with images, videos, and detailed instructions for each move.
The publishers’ description for this app:
Exercise Physiologist and PumpOne co-founder, Declan Condron, teamed up with Yoga instructor Kristin McGee to create Hatha Yoga flows that will have you on your way to increased awareness, stillness of mind, and a strong, agile body. Each level contains basic flows like the Sun Salutation and Warrior Sequences along with some more advanced flows intertwined with a number of individual poses.
iPump offers more than just yoga workouts too – pilates, weights, cardio, to flexibility training can all be found on this app. Boasting 400 workouts and 4000+ images & videos, it’s going to be awhile before you recycle through all the different variations they have to offer! If you’re still in doubt, try a free download before purchasing. This would be a great alternative for those who can’t afford pricey yoga classes or for you frequent travelers. It’s essentially a workout in your purse! And for those who get overwhelmed at the gym (like me) trying to figure out what to do next… now all you have to do is consult your iPhone for a series of premade workouts all ready for you!
Of course, this means you need to actually own an iPhone…
