It’s a beautiful day to be Alive! Alive is a fitness and wellness app by Whitney Simmons.

Features
Programs
Alive includes 20 different programs to choose from based on your personal goals. When you join a program you are guided through a full schedule of workouts that span over several weeks. This takes any guesswork out and keeps you focused on your goals.
Challenges
Alive strongly believes your mental health is just as important as your physical health and has designed 30-day challenges where those intersect. Each challenge contains daily tasks, mindful mobility, workouts, and journal prompts. These challenges will help you push your limits and uncover new habits to live a healthier day-to-day life.
Daily Workouts
Alive includes over 100 daily workouts that are split up into different categories (HiiT, Abs, Pull, etc) so you can decide what type of workout you want to do.
Journey
The path to a fit, healthy life is a journey, not an overnight process. The journey allows you to keep track of your progress by weight, photos, and a timeline of progress. Alive also has the capability of syncing your active minutes and weight data with Apple Health. Consistency is key so as you continually hit your goals the app will reward you with achievements along the way!

I have been working out for about 6 years now and life has changed a lot since then. Most recent change is becoming a flight attendant and finding a workout program that works for me has been a challenge. I even hired a personal trainer to try and help with that and found it to still not be what I needed. On a whim I decided to try this app. I’ve been a long time follower of Whitney but wasn’t sure if her app would be somewhat “gimmicky.” Not only has this app not been that way at all but it has actually been the best app and programs I’ve had in a long time. The app is easy to use, motivating, and flexible. I have been doing the at home workout program and love it. I often am in different gyms with varying equipment and that is why having a consistent program is tricky. One of the best features of this app is how every exercise has an alternative making it possible for me to get my workout in regardless of the gym I’m at. I also am a fan of the different stretching and mobility exercises. This app has it ALL! Perfect for beginners or longer time people like me. Also very affordable especially for everything it includes!
