Best for Rational phobics. Bunn offers a wealth of statistics, information and explanations for every possible sound and movement, but you’ve got to be able to listen to reason.

BODY
iTREAD ($3.99 at www.iTRAIN.com)
The gist Celebrity trainer Grace Lazenby enthusiastically leads walkers, joggers and runners through a 20-minute interval treadmill workout blending hills, speed walking and sprints.
Best for Type A Us Weekly fans with a gym membership. iTRAIN’s (the company behind iTREAD) workouts, said to be favored by Courteney Cox and the Pussycat Dolls, require cardio equipment and attentiveness, as speed or incline changes every two minutes.
Try it at East Bank Club (500 N Kingsbury St, 312-527-5800). You won’t have to wait for a machine (there are 450), and it’s the closest you’ll get to Hollywood without leaving city limits.

SPIRIT
Yoga Heart Strengthening Practice ($4.95 at www.yogalearningcenter.com)
The gist Yoga Learning Center president Mia Taylor methodically directs 70 minutes of intermediate-level yoga designed to tone and relieve tension.
Best for Experienced yogis interested in a nap. The combination of Taylor’s soothing voice and the melodic background guitar strumming had our eyes drooping in ten minutes.
Try it at A room with a docking station. Anywhere large enough to lay out a mat satisfies space requirements, but it ain’t easy assuming downward dog or backbending while clutching an iPod.
