A Very Useful, Fun, Free Virtual Personal Trainer

I found a great Website that acts like a personal trainer for fitness.

When you register, it asks you a bunch of questions and then sets up a training schedule for you. A very useful feature is that it shows video clips of each and every exercise, so you can make sure you're doing it right. So much easier than trying to figure out looking at a book or magazine.

Then it shuffles the exercises around each day so you never know what you're getting next. The exercise database seems to be HUGE. And there are lots of little stretches and neat exercises that I've never heard of before. Then, of course, you log what you've done and you get to see your progress.

They suggest that you'll start to see results after 15 workouts, which doesn't seem like such a long time.

I'm giving it a try. I'll let you know how it works.

You can sign up for free here. No tricks or gimmicks. They say they may add other features later that will cost money, but everything I've described is free.

The site requires Flash.
