Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro-A Useful Tool For Tracking Your Ride Statistics

Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro is a very handy sports tracking app that I use for logging all of my ride statistics, whether I am out on the streets, a paved trail or mountain biking.  It is a useful way to check your results after a ride, see your route on a map, share your workouts on Facebook and with your cycling friends and can be used to improve your times from previous workout routes.

I like this app for the fact that it keeps a running history of all of my rides so I can pick any specific one and check all of my stats and the route I took.  I simply log into Emdomondo's Login page or the history section of the app on my smartphone and I can view my complete history.

By clicking on a previous workout I can view all of my stats, a route map and my lap times with speed and altitude on a graph.  When challenging yourself against previous workout routes, you can see where you have made improvements or need to make improvements.

When it comes to summaries, it will tally up your monthly performances with personal bests and give you an overall summary with all of your workouts included.

At the start of each ride you can choose the style of workout you will be doing.  Just choose your workout, select your sport (for cycling, use Cycling Sport, Mountain Biking or Cycling Transport), then start the 10 second countdown timer or hit the start button.  Start pedaling and you are tracking your workout.

After your ride, you have instant access on your mobile device to all of your workout data including results, lap and split times and a map of your workout.

When enabled, after a ride your performance will automatically be uploaded to your Facebook page for your friends to click on and see your stats and route map.

Start following your friends on Endomondo and see their real time workout stats, race against them and send them live pep-talk messages.  View their workout summaries as they are posted.

This app works with Ant+ Bike Speed & Cadence and Heart Rate Monitor sensors and GPS to make it a pretty accurate statistics and tracking app.  I have just provided some of the more basic tools this app has to offer, but when you work with it and get to know its functionality a little better, you will see that I have only just scratched the surface on what it can do.  After using it for a few months, I really like this app.  I have found it's pretty accurate and stable on both iPhone and Android, but I still use my cycling computer for a real accurate measure of distance.  I would definitely recommend it to my cycling friends. 

Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro is a paid app and is available on many of today's smartphone operating systems.  For Android find it on the the Google Play Store.  For iPhone find it on Apple's iTunes App Store.
