I do not use any sports apps, because for me sports should always be fun, such as playing football with friends or going by bike around the lake. Personally, I do not feel this urge to measure all my activities, even though it can be very motivating to see the progress.

Unfortunately, I don’t use a fitness app. However, being a keen follower of football, I do keep tabs on things via the Live Score App and, of course, Soccer Bible.
Live Score is so user friendly and covers all major global competitions. Unfortunately, New Zealand does not have a domestic professional league, but the Australian Hyundai A League is one of the fastest growing leagues in Asia. Just recently, there were 60,000 fans who attended the Sydney derby – our very own PUMA sponsored Sydney FC v cross town rivals Western Sydney Wanderers.
I keep with all the latest product and football news from within the industry with Soccer Bible and find this app informative, quick to market and easy to use.

Yes, I use PUMATRAC. I am not a runner, but I do enjoy brisk walks and when I do this, I use PUMATRAC. I like it because it shows me different routes I could use in the area that I am I in. It also tracks how far I have walked and the time it has taken me to do so, which allows me to track my time and better it with my next walk. I like that there are other activities that you can track and the fact that it is a straight-forward, simple to use app.

The app that I use is called MINDBODY. I use the app to find deals connecting me to fitness, wellness, and beauty services in my local area. It allows me the freedom to keep my schedule accessible, find hidden gems with unexpected adventures (like that random Krav Maga class I took a few months ago), and pay directly through the app.

I have been sporty for many years and have always been linked to the world of swimming and water polo, so I am not very used to using mobile apps. For me, sport means time-out, connect with the environment and enjoy doing it alone or in company.
Before my pregnancy I liked jogging and I used apps like Runtastic. I like it because you can set your goals and your pace and it motivates you during the race. Nowadays, my time for sport has been reduced and I prefer to go swimming, jogging or doing an aerobics class, but with no time or clock. I live near the Mediterranean Sea and I enjoy a lot playing sports outdoors.
I recently downloaded the app Stepz and by the end of the day, I like checking how many kilometers I have run around during the day and even more now that I don’t stop moving around and chasing my little baby boy.

As I’m a very active person, I like doing different kinds of sports. In summer, I really enjoy spending my time on the water. If I’m not windsurfing, I’m enjoying life on the sailing boat or going hiking in the mountains. In winter, I absolutely love going skiing.
Since all of these activities are in the nature with low mobile signal or on the water, where a mobile is very unhandy, I don’t use a sports app. From time to time, I go for a run, but also without my mobile, because I want to relax and enjoy the nature without being connected to the rest of the world.
