Title: Fitness Tracker
Post by: Macpoodler on February 21, 2005, 08:35:15 pm

Here is an idea, an app to keep track of exercise  cardio/weights with a simple calculator type interface to keep track of minutes or #rep and lbs of weight. Something that you could track over time and specify types of exercises. If you could have big keys that you could quickly enter info with your fingers on the screen that would be great!

Is there an interest to develop something like this for the Z?

Thanks, Kevin

hi kevin,

maybe this is a solution for your idea: there are some excel sheets out
there,  which can easily be handled  by hancom's software. i have only
a german link with some xls files:

I set up a small DB using Portabase to track my walking.  I enter in data either from my pedometer or from the treadmill depending upon wheter I'm walking outside or inside.  I have columns like Date, distance, time, calories, and booleans to check if I was hiking or mowing the lawn.

I imagine you could do something like this for other types of workouts.

Hi,

Could you share your database shell?  I would be interested in this also.  I have only looked at Portabase a little, but would like to use yours as a template/guide.

Thanks
