Move for a better you – powered by you

‘Powered by you’ is the theme of this year’s National Fitness Day on 24th September and we have two ways you can power your way to a better you.

An exciting, motivational challenge and insightful check-ups are powering our involvement in this annual UK-wide celebration of health and fitness – both powered by our equipment provider, Technogym.

You’re invited to take part in either or choose both!

Move for a better you

A challenge powered by you

MOVE for a better you over seven days between 22nd and 28th September – either as a team or by yourself – and you could win a prize.

The individual moving more than their fellow movers will win a Fitbit Versa 4 while there’s a Technogym prize for the team with the most MOVEs.

 

How does it work?

The more you MOVE and the higher the intensity of your MOVE, the more MOVEs you will record. For example, a 30-minute walk might earn you 200 MOVEs, while a 30-minute walk-run could earn 400 MOVEs.

 

How to take part

To join our challenge, open the Technogym training coach app, select ‘Challenges’ from the menu at the bottom of the screen, scroll until you see the ‘Move for a better you’ challenge and select ‘Join Team and Challenge’.

 

How are MOVEs recorded?

The Technogym app tracks your MOVEs by connecting with various third-party devices such as Garmin, Apple, and Fitbit watches. MOVEs are also recorded during gym workouts. 

Good luck, movers, may the most MOVEs win – and if you don’t already have the app, get it here: https://activecentres.org/app 

Giving you the power to turn back time (sort of!)

Our new Technogym check-up station could help you turn back time, of sorts, by working out your wellness age (more on that in a moment) and your path to a healthier future you.

On National Fitness Day itself (24th September), we’re moving our brilliant new check-up stations into each Active Lifestyle centre’s reception, where you’re invited to have a free check-up overseen by one of our friendly staff.

It can track your body composition, mobility, balance, mind, strength, and cardiovascular fitness health metrics and convert them into a Technogym Wellness Age™ – this is a measure of your biological age (how old your cells are) in comparison to your chronological age (how long since you were born).

Using this information, the AI-powered Technogym app can personalise safe and effective workouts, offer motivational insights to improve your fitness goals, health, and wellbeing, all with the aim of reducing your biological age, or turn back time, as it were!

Just come along on National Fitness Day and put the power of the future in your own hands.

Power your way to a better you this National Fitness Day:

  • Take our 7-day ‘MOVE for a better you’ challenge with prizes to be won.
  • Have a free Technogym Wellness Age™ check-up.

Put the power of the future in your own hands!
