Calling all gym class heroes! Want to sample all the fitness classes your city has to offer without committing to a gym membership? There's an app for that, and it’s called BurnThis.
Here's how the free app works: First, you select your fitness personality (are you more of a "Pumped on Pilates" kind of girl or a "Bootcamper"?). Then, BurnThis uses your current location to show you the schedules and prices for all the boutique classes in your area that might be a good fit for you. Pick a class, type in your credit card info, and you're all set to sweat.
Right now, you can use the app to search for classes in 12 major cities, including New York, Boston, Los Angeles, and Austin. Don't live in one of those areas? It could be a useful tool for staying fit while you travel—use it to find a great workout when you're passing through an unfamiliar city on business or spending a weekend visiting girlfriends.
BurnThis isn't just a workout reservation system, though; it's actually its own social network, where you can follow friends and keep them posted on your latest workouts. And that's great because sharing your workouts keeps you more accountable—and research has shown that people who log their workouts more frequently tend to lose more weight. Download it today from iTunes.
Heading to SXSW? Women's Health is partnering with BurnThis and the new cycling studio Cyc for a super-fun and super-sweaty free class on March 8. Download BurnThis, and select the "SXSW 2014" event to find class times and sign up. Get ready to #partyonabike!
Not going to SXSW? You can still WIN an amazing prize pack from Women's Health, Cyc, and BurnThis. Get more details here.
