The 11 Best Workout Apps of 2020

Fitbit Coach truly is a fitness app for all levels.

Connects to your Fitbit account and automatically logs each workout.

There's very little content available for free users. All video content is unlocked with a Premium subscription.

Stylish app that will appeal to both men and women.

Huge variety of workouts for all-round fitness.

Everything's completely free. No premium subscription required.

Apple Watch support for workouts and body tracking.

The iOS app only works on devices running iOS 10 or later which means that it won't work on everyone's iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.

Great variety of content with workouts and recipes plus its own social network for sharing progress photos and tips with other users.

Apple’s HealthKit and Apple Watch integration.

After the seven day trial, the app becomes very expensive with its monthly $19.99 membership fee.

Zova: Workout App features both guided workouts and run/walk tracking which will make this an all-in-one fitness app for a lot of people.

The Apple Watch support monitors your heart rate during a workout.

Zova is only available on iPhone, iPod Touch, and Apple Watch which may annoy those who prefer an iPad or own an Android or Windows device.

Completely free apps that are effective for targeting specific body parts.

Available on a range of devices including Windows 10 PCs and tablets and the often neglected Windows phone.

Only the Level One fitness plans are only available in the free Lite versions of the apps. Separate PRO versions of each app, which admittedly only cost $1.99, are required for the second and third levels.

Production value is incredibly high compared to rival yoga apps.

Loads of free yoga classes available.

There's no choice for a male instructor and all but one of the fitness models are female which may be a deterrent for some male users.

Instructions are always the same for each pose which can get repetitive in a flow that repeats the poses several times in a row.

FitStar Yoga Premium does not unlock Premium on Fitbit Coach which essentially uses the same account system.

The workout generator allows you to create a workout session focusing on a specific body part. This is a feature that's surprisingly lacking from many similar apps. These are only available to Premium members though.

The meal plans impressively provide options for vegan, vegetarian, paleo, gluten-free, and pescatarian users.

Jillian Michaels hosts every workout on this app so if you're not a fan of her then this isn't the app for you.

The sensation of a zombie horde chasing you really does force you to run faster when you otherwise would have thought you were too tired.

Legitimately interesting storyline that grows with each run.

Requires iOS 11.2 operating system on iPhones and iPod Touches which means owners of older devices aren't invited to the zombie party.

The Fitbit app itself can track steps simply by being installed on a smartphone without an actual Fitbit tracker being present.

Fitbit leaderboards are usually full of friends due to the brand's popularity and Facebook connectivity. Odds are you already know several people who have the app installed.

Its ability to keep records on all your workouts and activities makes it a must-use.

Sometimes there can be too many device notifications while competing with friends.

RunKeeper seamlessly connects to other fitness apps such as Fitbit and MyFitnessPal which is great for those that prefer those apps' other services but like running with RunKeeper.

The RunKeeper Premium membership offers personally tailored workout plans which is impressive but the ability to view weather data is something that shouldn't be behind a paywall and many similar apps offer that basic information for free.
