Lately, I’ve been on a fitness kick. And I’ve never felt so good. It got me thinking about how an exercise newbie could use the Internet to maximise her workout potential.

I did a Google search to see what I could come up with. I’m not going to a gym for weight loss, so I eliminated blogs that dealt with that. One blog I came across was Fitness Black Book (http://fitnessblackbook.com/) with the tagline: Advanced Tips Your Personal Trainer Doesn’t Know.

I found all sorts of interesting stuff, including questions like: are you in better shape or do you just have a high pain tolerance? The author tells you not to become gym obsessed, to skip a workout if you’re planning on going for a walk, and to not spend your life constantly worrying.

I found some interesting ones like ‘Locate A Gym’ or ‘Find A Workout Partner’ but nothing located in India. Then I went to Widgetbox and did a search for ones related to fitness. I found loads, but the most interesting ones were Yoga Journal Pose Of The Day (http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/yoga-journal-pose-of-the-day) and Running Rocks!
