SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 31, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --Feed.fm, the global leader in digital music for fitness, has tapped its fit tech partners to create a list of ways to make it stick this year. This guide will help you answer the ongoing question we all have: "what can I do to make fitness a habit?" Knowing that 80% of resolutions fail by February, we take a look at the most common challenges and share tech solutions to conquer them all.
Challenge #1 - Gyms
They are too far away, it takes too long to change and shower, I have to remember my workout clothes and toiletries, they just aren't convenient.
Solution: Bring the gym to your house - no sweaty locker room needed. Bowflex Max Trainer, Tonal and Mirror are the latest in home gym technologies to efficiently slip custom workouts into your existing routine. The hardware has come a long way recently, and you get interactive training included with a monthly subscription. You'll have to find a whole new set of excuses to not use these gorgeous machines, especially since they offer flexible workouts from 10 to 30 minutes in length.
Challenge #2 - Coaches
They are too expensive, I won't like their style, I just want to do my own thing, scheduling is a headache, they won't understand my needs.
Solution: Your virtual coach is now easier than ever to access. Vi Trainer, Pear Sports, Fitbit Coach, and ASICS Studio, all provide unique approaches to on-demand coaching. With enormous variety you'll be sure to find the ideal mentor, motivator and mind to help achieve goals you've never even thought to strive for before. Whether you are looking for dynamic, interactive coaching, audio-only training, or an AI personal trainer in your ear, there is something for everyone.
Challenge #3 - Nutrition
Why bother if my poor eating habits undo my hard work? You can't out train a bad diet.
Solution: Not a problem if your training and meal plans are smartly integrated into one solution! Sure 8fit helps you skip the gym with custom home workouts, but they also provide nutritionist-recommended meals backed by easy to use shopping lists. Similarly, BodyBoss fitness and nutrition bundles focused on lifestyle change to drive results over 12 weeks.
Challenge #4 - Finding Balance
Fixing my outside doesn't cure how I feel inside. People are more stressed than ever and anxiety and depression make it tough to get motivated.
Solution: Sanity & Self helps you take care of your inner self to achieve peace and empowerment amidst your chaotic life. By focusing on your mind and soul and performing daily self-care, self-love, self-healing, self-discovery and self-empowerment, you'll be healthier inside and out. Many of the top training apps including ClassPass Go and MoveWith now offer yoga and meditation alongside strength and cardio workouts so that you can get everything you need for balance in one place.
Challenge #5 - Scheduling
I love my boutique classes, but they are only offered a few times a day.
Solution: Get the best of both worlds. City Row Go artfully blends the community and cultural foundation of their successful rowing boutiques with a scalable home gym. Sexy rowing machines are the foundation of high intensity, low impact workouts that include mat, free-weights, planking and squats. Daily Burn also offers the feel of a live studio class with their daily 365 workouts led by top NYC trainers.
Challenge #6 - Music
Good workout music is so hard to find, I struggle finding playlists; no one gets my taste in music, I'd rather listen to nothing than the wrong songs.
Solution: Feed.fm's DJ expertise alongside an unlimited library and knowledge of what tune fits which workout provides all of fitness tech with a dopamine releasing, legal performance-enhancing drug that even Barry Bonds wouldn't get asked twice about.
