Got an iPhone or an Android smartphone? Then you’ve already got access to hundreds of fitness and weight-loss apps. They’ll keep you on track -- plus, most won’t require a workout for your wallet:

Lose It!
This great weight-loss app helps you set and stay within your personalized calorie budget by recording your daily exercise efforts and food intake. Plus, it tracks your progress online.

My Fitness Pal
This Web-based food diary is a community-oriented app (a feature not offered by Lose It!) that also provides a fast and simple calorie-counter with a huge database of more than 607,000 foods. It lets you input what you’re eating and what you’re going to do to work it off. Then, it tracks your progress against your goals while you receive motivational messages from other dieters.

Cardio Trainer
This baby works as your training partner, using your phone’s GPS to keep track of your running, cycling or other workouts. It also counts how many calories you burn while doing those exercises. It can upload your progress reports to the Web, and for only $2.99, you can buy a premium feature that allows you to race against yourself. That’s a tough one to get odds on!

Platforms: Android

Free, $2.99 for premium feature ? WorkSmartLabs.com

Endomondo Sports Tracker

Plot your route on a map and get live pep talks from your friends or your personal trainer during your workout. (They can send you a text-to-speech message from any computer.)

High-tech Monitors
If you’re not keeping track of your body’s fitness progress, then these babies will!

Fitbit Tracker
This tight little gizmo can be clipped onto your clothes or slipped into your pocket. It uses motion sensors like the ones found in the Nintendo Wii to gather data, which is then converted into information about your daily activities that you can monitor online. It measures and displays calories burned, steps taken and distance traveled -- it even measures the amount of time it took you to fall asleep. Why? Because recent studies have shown that getting a good night’s sleep has been shown to affect hormones that regulate appetite. The more you sleep, the more your appetite will be suppressed. You snooze, you lose … in a good way!
$99.00 (+$49.99 per year for optional premium subscription) ? Fitbit.com

BodyMedia FIT
Meet the most comprehensive body monitor on the market. The whole system -- which straps onto your arm -- is about the size of a large wristwatch. It’s loaded with sophisticated sensors that capture more than 5,000 readings, 24 hours a day. It tracks everything from your sleep patterns to your perspiration levels. The unit then uploads data via your computer’s USB port and allows you to update your food log using your computer, iPhone or Android.

Scaling Your Progress
Nothing can cut through the crap you’ve been selling yourself like a reliable scale. If you need an unforgiving taskmaster, then climb aboard one of these scales.

Withings Wi-Fi Body Scale
Every time you step onto this device, it instantly sends your weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) to your computer, allowing you to virtually bring your baggage with you anywhere. You can check on your weight loss via the scale’s Web dashboard that you can access through your desktop, iPhone or Android smartphone. The scale also allows you to share information with your friends on Facebook or Twitter. A medical professional or your personal coach can also chart your progress on their computers and update your medical records online. So if you’re gonna put your diet on the Web, this should motivate you to make it good news.

Do you hate working out under the supervision of an expensive coach? You could definitely workout on your own but you don't have the gadgets to track if you are burning enough calories or if you are achieving results. You might think that you are stuck with no option but to hire a professional but actually, you do. Adidas has launched its own range of workout devices that will help you monitor your progress and give you real time information on the workout you are performing - The Adidas miCoach.

The Adidas miCoach is the line of products that Adidas launched to help people with their workout routines even without the help of a professional. There are two different products under the miCoach line, namely the miCoach PACER and the miCoach ZONE.

The miCoach Pacer, as the name implies, tracks your workout pace. It has a bult in heart rate monitor and stride sensor that detects your current heartbeat rate to give you information on when you need to increase and decrease your pace. The stride sensor's primary purpose is to give you details on your running speed, the distance that you have covered and your pace when you stride. It conveniently attaches to any cord, such as your mp3 and it is lightweight as well.

The miCoach Zone, you get details on how long you have been doing a specific workout and it allows you to set a timer. It also gives you information on how much calories you have burned during your routines so you know whether to increase or decrease your pace.

If you are a health and budget conscious person, getting the Adidas miCoach is your perfect choice.
