The Atlantic Magazine includes an article titled "The Perfected Self" which outlines how smartphone apps are proving far more successful in driving effective diet and exercise programs, as they are more convenient and cheaper than traditional approaches.

The NY Daily News has an article on the Top Health and Fitness Apps, such as Nike's popular iPhone app which monitors heart rate data, calorie burn, pace and distance of runs and other workouts, in addition to inspirational notes from Nike athletes, voice feedback, and links to social media.
