Best workout ipad apps that sync with Heart Rate Monitor?

Post by jt3jon »

brother got an ipad mini recently and loves it, so for christmas I'd like to get him a bluetooth heart rate monitor and an app for him to keep track of his workouts.

Any recommendations on an app? He wants to keep track of his fitness goals over time, including both cardio and weight lifting. What would be awesome is an app that will show you a workout summary with heart rate, intensity etc over the course of your workout, and to view all this same data in real time during a workout, and directly compare it vs a previous workout! I mean, Over time he would obviously like to improve on his cardio fitness, and being able to see his "previous best" workout and try to beat it would be an AWESOME motivator.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Even recommendations on fitness forums that might be better suited to answering this question would help. Thanks in advance for any information you can provide!

hi!

I used bluetooth smart heart rate monitor with iphone, and there are a lot of compatible apps.
A month ago I got ipad mini and now use HRM with Endomondo and Runkeeper apps. I think these apps will meet your demand
Besides, what HRM are you planning to use?

P.S. But there also many other apps
