NormSoft Announces Athletix Health and Fitness Software

PalmOS application helps PDA users lose weight and get in shape

Millis, MA (PRWEB) January 12, 2004

NormSoft, Inc. today announced the debut of Athletix, a powerful health and fitness log for PalmOS devices. PDA users can download a free fully-functional trial version from www. normsoft. com

The key feature of Athletix is its ability to create and manage entries in its flexible exercise log. Each log entry can contain dozens of pieces of information, about exercise (distance, time, speed/pace, subjective quality, weather, race placing, etc.) and health (weight, resting heart rate, blood pressure, etc.). Users can view their log entries in an easy-to-read columnar form that is completely customizable. They can change which information is displayed to them so they can hide the details they don't wish to track.

In addition to these powerful logging features, Athletix can display graphs and reports to show the user's progress. There are dozens of graphs and reports to choose from, such as Daily Distance, Weekly Distance, Fastest Pace, Lowest Weight, and many more. The graphs and reports can cover any date range, and automatically determine the correct scale to use when drawing.

"With the increasingly smaller size of Palm devices, Athletix can easily be carried around by fitness enthusiasts and gym-goers everywhere," said Tim Norman, President of NormSoft, Inc. "Athletix's powerful graphing and tracking capabilities will quickly show users their progress and help them make on-the-spot decisions to enable them to reach their goals."

Athletix comes with the ability to track running, cycling, swimming, cardio-vascular workouts, weight lifting, and health information. In addition, users can create new activities of their choice and track those log entries separately from the others.

Athletix includes support for all Palm devices that use PalmOS 3.5 or later. The software also takes full advantage of color, high-resolution displays, including the large displays used in the PalmOne Tungsten T3 and Tapwave Zodiac.
