Aaptiv is a mobile application for Android and iOS phones that lets users download hundreds of audio workouts they can play at home, outside, or at the gym. What sets them apart from similar app-based training programs is that they offer a music-driven experience that seeks to inspire, motivate, and enhance individual training so that users can get the most out of their workout. The app is easy to use and the monthly subscription is considerably lower than you'd spend on a gym membership.

Aaptiv was one of the earlier audio fitness apps and was founded on the belief that many people don't want to be tied to a screen while working out. Many outdoor runners, for example, can relate to that. But some users prefer a video experience. Recently, Aaptiv has added some videos to its library. These tend to be focused on basic exercise instructions, not full-length workouts.

Aaptiv Workout Program
