The app

Working out with friends equals instant accountability — but what if you’re surrounded by gym-o-phobes? Enter SweatCity app. It’s similar to Tinder, but for workout buddies. You can select what you’re looking for (whether it’s a runner, yogi or lifter), chat with those you match with, and set up a calendar invite to sweat it out at your local workout haunt. Here are more health apps that are totally worth downloading.

The website

Much like your inner child, goodtimesoutside.ca wants you to get outside. Pick the location, ability level, length and even the “vibe” you want, and the site will deliver. Oh, and you may be interested in this new form of hiking.

The store

Lululemon is giving back to the communities it outfits in covetable fitness garb by inviting them to “Sweat With Us” at no cost. Their site lists fitness events ranging from Sunday morning yoga (obvs) to HIIT classes and run clubs. Fitness goals aside, it creates a great opportunity to connect with likeminded people in your good. Check out lululemon.com/community to find a class near you.
