    We can also go under the Search bar, where we have the options "Frequent" and "My Exercises," which are the ones we've entered ourselves. On the right, there is "All Exercises," where people have things we might have done in alphabetical order. We have the option to choose from "Aerobics", "Belly dancing", "Bowling", "Dancing" again, and "Elliptical Trainer". Every thing is in alphabetical order.

    Whichever one we like, simply tap on it. They even have "Horse grooming" as well, so it's quite extensive. We can just tap "Line dancing" for this example. Again, when we fill in the Minutes Performed it changes the "Calories Burned" depending on how intensive the exercise workout is.
