Pocket Trainer for Android
The second most downloaded paid BlackBerry fitness App!
Pocket Trainer is your personal trainer! Using high quality videos and written descriptions, PT tells you what to do, when and how to do it. This is not just a list of exercises that you have to choose from, but a completely personalized program.
Doesn't appear to work on the S7
I had Pocket Trainer on my Blackberry and am delighted to find out that I can load it on my Samsung Galaxy S 4. Pocket Trainer offers a core-centric workout, and changes your daily routine so that you're less likely to plateau. After you fill in a profile about your fitness level and the equipment you have on hand, this app offers a line-up of exercises for 20, 40, or 60 minutes, depending upon the amount of time you have. If there's an exercise you just can't do (old injuries, etc.), it can offer an alternative that will usually serve. It describes the exercise in text, offers some pictures, and you can always click into a video if these don't seem clear. If you're still struggling with, it offers a tip or two (e.g., "Push through your heels instead of the balls of your feet.")
Samsung in the wisdom removed the physical menu button... now there is no way to access the menu of this program.... not the programs fault but more and more phone manufacturers are going away from the physical button.... a soft menu button needs to be added to the program
I previewed many "trainer"apps but this one by far is the best! Thought I was going to have to pay someone to establish some routines for me as I'm new to anything except cardio and classes but this app is all I need! It runs fine on my galaxy s3 Thank you for the videos, extra explanation, and variety!

The servers supporting this app have been down for over a month . The app's website is also down. I have emailed dev for support many times for help but no reply. I can only assume the service has been withdrawn. DO NOT BUY!!
