SHRED is the name of the app designed for an assignment. Firstly, Shred means 'a strip of some material, such as paper, cloth, or food, that has been torn, cut, or scraped from something larger.' In this case, Shred refers to burning fat and making muscles appear more.
SHRED is an app specifically designed to cater fitness freaks, fitness enthusiasts, anyone who is trying to achieve their body goal, or literally anyone who wants to eat healthier.
Part of the assignment was to see our likes and dislikes. The idea of this type of app struck me while doing this exercise. I am a person who cares a lot about my body and my health. I train 5 times a week and love doing it. I struggle when it comes to dieting properly, not training itself. People would think that training is the hard part, they are completely wrong. The type of food and amount of food affects how your body and physique changes massively.
So the idea of the app revolved around how difficult and annoying it is to diet properly. First of all, you have to restrict what you eat, dieting food is not as tasty as greasy, fatty foods. That's already enough to put people off from dieting, but wait there's more. Trying to vary what you eat and making sure that it will still work for your particular diet. Literally, everyone who tries to change their physique for the better will suffer from this problem.
But do not worry. SHRED is here. The slogan of the app is 'Recipes at the tip of your finger', and rightly so. The whole point of the app is to discover, save and use recipes according to your category of training.
The app is split into 4 categories. These are Bodybuilding, Weight Loss, Fitness & Toning. Recipes of meals will vary in proteins, carbohydrates, fat percentage, sugars, and flavor. This will all depend on the category you choose for your body, whether it's to bulk up and gain muscle, whether or not you want to lose weight, stay fit or tone up for the summer. LITERALLY any type of recipe can be found on SHRED. You also have a choice to search from all the recipes on the app based on tags or ingredients. Through the search option, you have the choice to filter your searches. This app could be used by literally anyone.
Let's take a situation.
Let's say you are cooking a dinner for your family of significant other and you have no idea what to cook. All you have to do is search through this app according to what ingredient or type of recipe you would like. Maybe you want to cook a chicken dish. So, in this case, you type in chicken in the search bar and the top rated recipes will show up. Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, you have the ability to rate a recipe on the app. You must create an account and by doing so, you have many abilities. These include uploading recipes, saving recipes found to your recipe library and searching through different recipes.
