Leveraging Your Smartphone for Fitness with Badili Africa

Step Counting

Many smartphones have built-in accelerometers that can track your steps throughout the day. Consider getting something on the midrange budget from the Badili online store. 

Now, in your pocket is a helpful way to get an idea of how active you are. Based on the numbers, you can then set goals for yourself. A commonly suggested guideline is to aim for 10,000 steps per day. Download dedicated step-tracking apps for more detailed insights, such as calories burned.

Integration with Wearable Devices

If you use wearable fitness devices like smartwatches or fitness trackers, think of pairing them with your smartphone. Badili has affordable pre-loved options that pair easily with most wearables. 

Pairing through a Smartphone app creates a central hub for collecting and analysing data from these devices. You now get a comprehensive view of your fitness activities, sleep patterns, and more.

For instance, Xiaomi has the Mi Fitness app for their smart-bands. Check out our full review of the Redmi Note 11 Pro here, a perfect device for Xiaomi wearables.

GPS Tracking

Most smartphones have GPS capabilities, which allow you to track outdoor activities like running, cycling, or hiking.

Fitness apps such as Nike Training Club and Strava utilise GPS. They provide data on distance, speed, elevation, and route maps. These apps can also calculate calories burned based on the activity.

Nutrition Tracking

For fitness, maintaining a nutritious diet is essential. If you like, scanning barcodes with your smartphone or performing database searches on your food helps.

To assist you in keeping track of your diet, applications like FoodSwitch give immediate, easy-to-understand information. Learn about packaged food products, as well as a list of similar foods that are healthier choices. 

 

Remember to consult user reviews and ratings before choosing specific apps for fitness tracking. Read this Badili short list of our best app recommendations that you can try.
