We’ve all seen people carrying around fitness logs at the gym. They’re usually in the forms of tattered, torn spiral notebooks which get scribbled in after an exercise set. Well, all you tattered notebook carriers: Enter 2010 and the iFitness app. This handy app allows you to log all your exercises and build custom workout programs in the same gadget where your music comes from – your iPod Touch or iPhone. Through the app, you’re able to log how much weight your lifting and how many reps your doing, as well as calculate average and maximum weight lifted. It’ll even put together a program for you! If you want to bulk up your shoulders and build abs, then punch that in and iFitness will act as your personal trainer. Our favorite part? iFitness has a workout library, from which you can find videos and photographs on how to perform exercises correctly, look at specific muscle groups and learn which exercises to do to complement muscles of interest. $1.99
