5 Fitness Apps To Keep You Motivated in 2014

Written by Todd Hower | December 31, 2013

Will your New Year’s resolution for 2014 be to lose weight and get in shape? You won’t be alone. Losing weight and getting in shape are the top New Year’s resolutions year after year. We all know that it’s a lot easier to consume 1000 calories than it is to burn them. Trying to eat right after the holiday season and kick off a new exercise routine in January is never fun—especially if you live in a cold climate!

Fortunately for us locals here in the Lake Travis area, the weather is mild enough to get out and stay active throughout most of the year. And your smartphone might be the perfect tool to get you up and running for an indoor workout on those cold or raining days.

Today’s fitness apps can make it easier for anyone who wants to eat right and stay in shape. From weekend warriors to serious athletes and everyone in between. Sometimes being able to track things like your goals, routines, calories, and routes are just the motivation you’ll need to keep exercise fun and coming back for more.

Here are 5 fitness apps to keep you motivated, and help you track and celebrate your fitness successes in 2014!

Written by Mandy Spivey | December 23, 2013

Christmas is a special time of the year. The time when gorging on Santa themed sugar cookies isn’t cause for alarm and a family intervention. A month-long celebration of holiday traditions, mugs of hot cocoa, family get-togethers and unlimited shopping sessions.

But when you want to get back to basics and get into the true spirit of Christmas, just get into your car! Living in the Lake Travis area is such a great reason to take a day trip out to one of the many colorful towns surrounding us, and what a better place to visit than Fredericksburg, Texas?
