Daily Burn Tracker



Daily Burn Tracker is a free website ( you can upgrade your subscription but it costs money) that allows you to answer fitness and nutrition information about yourself to set up personal goals and a fitness program based on those goals.  This site would be great for my Aerobics class.  A whole unit is dedicated to goal setting and introduction to basic exercise.

Unit:  Goal Setting          
NASPE STANDARD 6:  Values physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self expression, and/or social interaction.
MVSCPE 3.0 Social Psychological Principles:  Students will demonstrate the ability to use skills essential for developing self efficacy, fostering a sense of community, and working effectively with others in physical activity settings.


Since all Aerobic classes are homogeneous, this program will allow students to make goals according to their fitness level and interests.  Check out this link to see a video describing the benefits of daily burn tracker:

Here is a quick and positive review of daily burn tracker:

Daily Burn Tracker can also be downloaded as an app on your smartphone.  It is a free app and tracks the same information as the online version (nutrition, fitness, goals). Check out this video to see how to download the app to your phone.
