#97 Daily dose : Runtasty -an app to make you fit


If you want to be fit and healthy, exercise is just one part of the equation. Just as important is what you eat, which is why Runtastic has launched an app calledRuntasty, packed full of healthy recipes to fuel you on your fitness journey.

The recipes are dietitian-approved, and as well as being healthy many of them are suited to specific dietary needs, such as vegetarian or gluten-free.
You can filter them by your dietary requirements, or by the preparation time, the calorie count, the meal type and more, and once you head into a recipe you can see all the dietary and nutritional information in detail.

Recipes themselves have both written and video instructions, so you’ve got the choice of words or pictures, and you can save favorites to return to later.

Runtasty also has a selection of how-to videos, showing you basic kitchen skills like how to chop an onion or poach an egg – the sorts of things that will come in handy when working your way through its recipe book.

The selection of recipes could be larger, but it’s a nicely laid out, very visual app, and for those on a diet or training plan it’s a much better bet than a standard recipe app.
