TOPIC: Update the Exercise database

 
June 12, 2012 13:45
While reviewing the exercise data base. It doesn't have any of the Zumba, Turbo Jam, Bob Harper, Jillian Michaels or Leslie Samsone DVD videos. It is very difficult to track your exercise when you don't have a realistic and updated database. It would be nice if you dedicated a little time to update the database.
Thank you

Fitness is a multi-billion dollar industry, expecting "every" workout video to be available is a bit much when they are variations on the same thing..

P90, Insanity, 30 Day Shred - others I haven't mentioned - if they involve both cardio and strength training that's "circuit training"

Samsone's "walk to fit" is logged as "walking" as is time on the treadmill (unless pace makes jogging, running a better choice)

if your video is just strength then strength training is there as an option, aerobics.. there's an option for that.

zumba / jazzercize etc are "dancing" which is available.

Just because they give something a "new name" for a different order of doing a workout doesn't change that it's the same "basic motions"

but if you must have different workout videos you CAN add them yourself to your own list. Search for the exercise and underneath the search results box it says "can't find what you're looking for? add to the database" (should say add to YOUR database as items entered here don't get added to the general / shared database)

I agree with Pandorian...there's no way they can keep up with all the options out there. Get a heart rate monitor and add your own if you really want accurate numbers.
