technology makes your life easier and as the understanding of the human body has increased we now know the need for proper diet and regular exercise using technology can help you stay organized motivated and educated while you're in the gym my name is Kevin the tech ninja and this is how I Android at the gym the first thing in any endeavor you try to tackle is being organized when working out it's important to be consistent in the amount of times you work out but also to mix up the workouts while you're there the first thing I do is use the application gym rat to make a routine gym rat is a four-and-a-half star application from the Play Store it has built-in routines and show you how to do different exercises per body part it also tracks your fitness gains and also has bodymetrix but if that's not your thing you can also use Google Drive spreadsheets to track your routine it's a bit cumbersome to use in the gym but I did it for a few months before installing gym rat once the work out as planned I go into my google now and I say okay google remind me when i get to life time to buy some protein so I grab a bar from the store or eat one that I packed here is what I bring with me to the gym gloves monster isport victory earbuds and the raft power portable lipstick charger alright let's talk about these earbuds for a moment these are the best workout earbuds for me for a number of reasons reason number one they have a clip that connects to your ear this keeps them in place so when I'm running playing basketball or doing anything inverted they do not pop out reason number two the cord on the headphones are flat so that means it takes up less space and also doesn't rub against me when I feed it under my shirt and lastly it has a decent kick for bass not the best sounding headphones but when working out I listen to high tempo music and having deep bass really helps me kick it up a notch I keep the raft power portable charger with me just in case my batteries on the verge of dying it's actually small enough so I can keep the phone and the charger both in my pocket if need be I can just keep it plugged in for 20 to 25 minutes and I get about a twenty percent in battery life which is enough to get me through the workout sometimes as I'm working out i'm using gym rat or google drive to track my workout and activity other people will purchase things like fitbit's the galaxy band or even the jawbone up whatever works for you is just fine and for strength training keeping up with what you pick up and put down that's how you get them gains i have a google play all access subscription and i use a workout playlist it mostly consists of high tempo music I mark the playlist for offline access so all those songs in my playlists are automatically with me in the gym we are subscribed to a playlist you market for offline access then automatically it downloads new tracks as they are added so I consistently have new music being added to my workouts lastly I go into my calendar on my phone or my computer and I input what I worked out and what body part of worked out on so I actually have a running log on my calendar of what I went to the gym this part is not needed but it's a great way to track your dedication if you're not getting the results you're looking for look at your calendar and I'll tell you everything you need to know and this is how I Android at the gym alright guys you know the routine if you'd like what we do here to android authority go ahead and drop us a like below and subscribe to our channel for more great content and also check out our other videos that we have posted on the side right here my name is Kevin the tech ninja you can find me on youtube and on google+ and this is android authority your source for all things android take care of guys
