There are some very cool innovations that Nike and Apple have collaborated on as well. If one buys a Nike kit and sensor sold by Apple and a pair of Nike+ shoes, they can track all of their workout status through their iPod device. There is a Nike menu that will appear on the iPod, allowing you to do custom and past favorite workouts. One may also do a workout according to distance, time, or burnt calories. Nike has even created Sport Music listening playlists that are great for workouts. During the exercise, your device continually updates you with various information regarding the workout. After workout completion, you can sync your iPod to the computer and store and track information via nikeplus.com.
