With the click of a mouse, you can track and share your exercise routines at websites like DailyBurn.com, SparkPeople.com and MyFitnessPage.com. Here are four sport-specific sites that make it easier to keep training and improve your practice at home or on the road:
YogaTailor.com.
Visit a yoga studio with a “live” instructor first to learn correct alignment. Once you have down-dog down pat, visit this site for a guided routine, tweaked to user skill and time availability.
RunningWithEric.com.
Eric Orton’s videos demonstrate running technique. After self-administered tests to gauge heart rate and pace, pick a plan, from beginner to marathoner.
GolfAnalytix.com.
With this online academy, you e-mail a video of your swing to instructor Michel Painchaud. He will return a marked-up version with a personal lesson, including exercises you can practice in your living room (without having to worry about ripped-up carpeting or ricocheting golf balls).
Totalimmersion.net.
Between its YouTube videos, coaches’ blogs, user forums, DVDs and e-zines, learn to swim at your own pace and master your strokes. You’ll need access to a pool for the drills, of course, but study and review of the content can be done from anywhere.
