We’ve broken down these awesome workout apps by category to give you a better idea of which one is best for you while traveling.

Fitbod

Fitbod is our overall top choice and the best option for weightlifting and bodybuilding.

Fitbod uses AI-learning to develop a workout plan for you that includes exercises, sets, and repetitions based on your abilities, goals, and available gym equipment.

There is no free version of the app available besides the free trial. Without a subscription, you won't be able to start or log workouts.

You can, however, save and create workouts using the exercise library and view exercise demonstration videos and instructions.

Read our Fitbod review article to learn how the app works for helping beginners build an effective fitness routine.

A monthly subscription is $12.99 and a yearly subscription is $79.99, but you can use the discount code ‘TRAVEL25’ for an exclusive rate - $9.99 per month or $59.99 for a year of personal training.

Freeletics

Freeletics is the best choice for bodyweight training.

There are a few different apps that make up the Freeletics package - Bodyweight (the most popular one), Gym, Nutrition, and Running.

Within each one, there's a free version and a paid version.

The Bodyweight app is a great option for travelers looking for quick, effective workouts that they can do anywhere.

The free version is a fitness training program with 10-30 minute bodyweight workouts that require no equipment.

There are over 900 workout variations and they cover all of your major muscle groups. It comes with tutorial videos to help you with exercises you don't know and to get the right form on them.

Training and nutrition cost $3.35 a week, while training only costs $2.30 a week. With the purchase of either one, you'll get access to personalized training plans in the Bodyweight, Gym, and Running apps.

Strava

Strava is the best option for running.

Strava will let you track your run, map your cycling route, analyze your training, and let you upload and share your stats - all for free.

Think social network for athletes - specifically runners and cyclists.

And it's great for traveling. Strava allows travelers to see which routes are most popular and where the good stops are along the way.

With Strava Local, travelers can see a guide to major cities around the world with data sourced from a pool of millions of users.

Nike Training Club

Nike Training Club is the best free workout app for traveling.

NTC is basically a digital personal trainer that will travel with you, featuring 160+ free workouts full of everything from yoga to strength training.

The app is not limited to bodyweight training - there's a fair amount of dumbbell exercises. That's great, as long as you have them accessible. If you do, NTC is a great app - you'll get an actual workout plan, rather than just a list of workouts.

Most workouts are between 15 and 45 minutes long and you can choose between low, medium, and high intensity. The workouts offer variety and are well thought out - you know you'll get a good workout with NTC.

Peloton

With the Peloton app, you’ll have access to a completely live and on-demand library of classes, including cycling, which is what Peloton is best known for.

There’s also boot camp, running, outdoor, strength, yoga, and guided meditation classes.

It costs $19.49 a month and grants users access to all virtual and live classes on iOS, Android, and the web. You can try it with a 14-day free trial.

Future

Future is a personal training app that allows you to work with a real personal trainer, one-on-one, anywhere in the world.

This is a great option for anyone who wants truly personalized workouts and needs the help of a coach with things like accountability and proper form.

Future is the most expensive option on this list, costing $149.99 a year. You can try it free for 30 days.

Apple Fitness+

Apple Fitness+ is a great option for quick workouts and even better when used with Apple products.

Using Apple Fitness+ requires an Apple Watch. If you don’t have one and are purchasing one, you can get a 30-month free trial of Apple Fitness+ with your purchase.

There are 11 different workout programs, including HIIT, strength, yoga, core, treadmill, cycling, rowing, Pilates, and dance.

Apple Fitness+ is a subscription service that’s far better than Apple Fitness. It costs $9.99 a month or $79.99 annually.

BeachBody on Demand

BeachBody on Demand has brought us some amazing workout programs, including Insanity, P90X, and 21 Day Fix.

Creator Shaun T is joined by a team of talented trainers to bring you workouts that will torch calories and build your strength on the way to achieving that body you've always wanted.

The best thing about BeachBody on Demand is how it can be streamed on your iPhone, iPad, laptop, Fire TV, Roku, Chromecast, or Apple TV.

This instant streaming makes it a perfect choice for anyone who travels frequently or wants to work out at home. The workouts are legit. The results are real.

Sworkit

Want a fitness app that makes working out fun and easy? Give Sworkit a shot.

Fun workout names, good music, and quick but effective workouts make Sworkit the perfect app for a busy traveler.

Recently voted number one by the ACSM study by Florida University on instructional exercise standards, Sworkit will give you a hard-hitting workout in as little as five minutes.

Use guided video workouts, personalize workouts based on your goals, squeeze them in amidst your busy schedule, and get truly fit with this well-designed and fun-to-use app.

The free version is great but if you want to try the paid version of the app, it's $29.99 for a three-month subscription or $79.99 for an annual subscription.

Aaptiv

Aaptiv is an on-demand fitness app that gives you access to almost 3,000 trainer-guided and musically-charged workouts developed by certified personal trainers, with new workouts added weekly.
