Internet is not only about our digital lives it can also have direct consequences on our "physical" lives. Especially with the sites aimed at improving our shapes, tracking our performances, following our work-out routine! We have created on Rankmill.com, a TOP 10 fitness sites based on the ranking created by The Times.
The #1 selected by The Times' team is the very innovative nikeplus.com (put a computer and a spy in your shoes). The interest of that site is that - provided you have the equipped shoes - everything is done automatically to give you information about your runs. It is also a kind of "social tools" to compare your performances with others. Probably one of the better way to have a clear view on what will be intelligent objects in the near future.
The only problem is that is still works only for running. If you prefer to bike or to swim you can find more or less the same services on bikely.com (#2) and wildswimming.co.uk (#10), but you will have to enter the data manually. However, I guess it should not take so long to see built-in technologies for all kind of sports. For instance, it is just beginning for gym with gymtechnik.com (#10) : provided your gym has wifi, you can now follow your progress with your iphone, BB or Android phone.
You can also find more classical fitness sites in this Top list :
-tutorials (excellent ones on menshealth.co.uk #3)
- and even music for your work out sessions (djsteveboy.com/podrunner.html #4)!
You can of course create very easily your own Top list, add more items, some comments, videos and images!
