Smartphones apps

There are many apps to make easier the training session.
 The one I like tyhe  most is called "Reto deportivo de 30 dias" it has many things inside this app, from new exercises to increase any type of movement until graphycs that show us what we have done during this period

Another app that is quite usefull is "Podometro" this app show us how many steps we do on the way, also the time you take to do it.
