Review: Nike+ Training Club

Nike Training Club generates exercise routines for the user according to various criteria (available equipment, BMI, fitness level), which routine is periodically automatically tweaked according to the user’s recent performance and how they have rated previous exercise sessions.

Users can also manually choose other routines from an ever-increasing assortment, most all of them created by professional trainers and athletes. (There are some celebrity routines, which are, at worst, harmless.)

Sessions include audio coaching and video examples of each of the exercises.

This is a fantastic app for laypersons looking to get fit or lose weight because it adjusts to the individual user and doesn’t require any knowledge or even thought–planning out one’s exercise becomes one less thing to worry about. I’d also recommend it for people who want to add more variety to their exercise routine.
