Health and Fitness is something we all promise to do more about, especially around the new year, but never really get round to starting. Luckily there are enough fitness fanatics out there that the App Store has taken the idea of fitness on your iPhone and run with it. In this section we will look at the apps that are designed to help you get more aware and active when it comes to your body. There are apps to take along with you when you exercise to help track your progress, as well as provide that little boost of support when you need it. One of the apps here even allows friends to record messages of support that can then be played back to you in times of need. We\u2019ve also included an app that takes the physical action of your exercise and turns it into an RPG game where you\u2019re trying to outrun zombies and build yourself a shelter. Then there\u2019s the app that gives you instant medical advice, from professionals. You can upload any question and get it answered directly by a doctor, essentially giving you a health centre in your pocket. With these apps then, you should be in good health.<\/p>\n
