Take Your Gym Everywhere!

It’s hard to workout when you’re on the go or traveling in the car for work or meetings.  In order to schedule your workout you must find a gym in your area, check the classes (if you like to take classes), check for the amenities at that particular gym (pool, basketball, sauna) and then find out how to get there.  That could be a lot of time tacked onto your already busy schedule!  If you want to speed you’re life up then you might want to download the new 24 hour Fitness Iphone application!

Features of the My24 iPhone app include:

• Club Finder – My24 lists nearby clubs when users enter a local zip code on their handheld device or quickly find clubs using the “search by city” or “advanced search” functions. iPhone users can auto-locate clubs using GPS technology.
• Club Details – My24 users can retrieve club location information, club photographs, and full lists of available club amenities.
• Class Schedule Finder – Allows users to search for upcoming classes at specific club locations; includes details such as names instructors and class formats.
• Default Club Setting – By setting a default club, users can get quick access to their preferred club information like class schedules and contact information.

In addition to 24 Hour Fitness information, My24 users have access to the following personal health tools:

• Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator – BMI is a useful indicator of overall fitness. Users can calculate their BMI and keep track of changes over time.
• Calorie Burner – Tracks workout duration and intensity to conveniently calculate hard-burned calories.
• Resting Metabolic Rate – Helps track the number of calories consumed while at rest. Users can monitor calories burned when they are not working out.
• Daily Calorie Calculator – Calculates approximate calorie needs based on activity levels.
• Video Library – Mobile access to the 24 Hour Fitness YouTube video channel at www.youtube.com/user/24HourFitnessInc. This includes class videos and equipment instruction.
• Refer a friend – Users can refer a friend to 24 Hour Fitness.

I tried searching my favorite yoga instructor Kat at my local gym and it showed every class she’s scheduled to teach!  The daily calorie calculator is also a fun tool but you must make sure that you properly input what you activity level is or you could over consume your calories!   Iphone applications are becoming the wave of the future.  24 Hour fitness has cornered the market with their advanced technology and strategically placed gyms all over the United States.
