Dumbbell muscle memory, anyone?

Muscle Memory is a great dumbbell workout broken up in three challenging sets in which you are encouraged to push through and claim victory at the finish. All it requires is an eager student (you) and a set of dumbbells (or soup cans) to start gaining some muscle memory. Go forth & muscle up with Workout Trainer.

PS: Speaking of memories...Memorial Day long weekend's coming up!  Next weekend for Canadians and two weekends from now for Americans.  Now's a great time to make some outdoorsy plans with your friends!  Continue skimbling with us and staying active by tracking your hikes, bike rides, yoga sessions and rock climbs using our other feature app, the Skimble GPS Sports Tracker for iPhone & Android.

The biggest change our Android Pro members will see is the ability to watch hi-def instructional exercise videos, which we think will better demonstrate to you proper form and efficient movement.  Many of our previous workouts have been updated with video, so now’s the time to revisit some of those workouts you haven’t tried in a while!

We’ve also paid close attention to feedback from some of our users who need a little kick in the pants to stay motivated.  You now have the ability to add workouts to your phone’s calendar and reschedule workout programs you may have fallen behind in, so there's no excuse to slack off!   

Try the new update today and let us know what you think! We’ve got you covered in Google Play.
