Can’t Afford A Trainer? These Are The Best Workout Apps

Hiring a personal trainer can be a major investment. The average cost for one is £40 per hour, according to WebMD, and oftentimes they are much more expensive than that. But if you're a fitness lover looking for an optimised workout with specific instructions, don't fret — you have plenty of cheaper options.

Thankfully, it's 2019 and shelling out cash to meet one-on-one with a certified personal trainer isn't always necessary when you're equipped with a smartphone.

Ahead, we've rounded up the best workout apps to spare you the expense of a personal trainer and keep your workouts interesting. Ready, set, download.
