Technogym is highlighting its recent global and local initiatives with a major presence at the 2016 FILEX Convention and Fitness & Health Expo – being held in Melbourne from today (29th April) to Sunday 1st May.

The leading fitness equipment supplier has today staged a presentation to winners of its Let’s Move for a Better World while also launching its Connected Wellness, SKILLMILL, GROUP CYCLE CONNECT and MYRUN products – in the presence of new Technogym Wellness Ambassadors Sally Fitzgibbons and Jenna Douros.

Let’s Move for a Better World
By leveraging the Technogym Ecosystem Technogym has launched Let’s Move for a Better World, the first worldwide social campaign to fight obesity allowing end users to take part to an engaging challenge and operators to engage with their members on a good cause. 

The 2016 global challenge achieved a milestone of over 400 million MOVEs worldwide (or 170 million calories burnt). 

With a total of 513 facilities and 122,000 participants across 21 countries involved, winning Australian facilities WaterMarc (pictured above), PARC and Ivanhoe Aquatic gathered for an award ceremony on the Technogym stand along with Fitzgibbons and Douros, to nominate their non-profit beneficiary of Technogym equipment.

Connected Wellness
The Technogym Ecosystem is the easiest and most comprehensive open platform connecting fitness equipment, mywellness cloud computing platform, apps and wearable devices, allowing end users to seamlessly manage their lifestyle anywhere and anytime introducing a transformative new approach to health management.

The Technogym app collects user data that is invaluable not only for the user to keep motivated and exceed personal goals, but also for the operator or personal trainer who can adjust personalised programs, monitor key vitals, and create unique experiences within the facility – attracting and keeping members.

Technogym founder and President Nerio Alessandri explains “with a combination of product and digital innovation, Technogym has reinvented the way people access wellness, fitness and health.

“This unique connected wellness ecosystem offers users a fully personalized wellness experience enabling them to seamlessly manage their fitness lifestyle whenever and wherever they are, and providing operators important insights to evolve business models.”

Asset Management
The Technogym Connected Wellness Ecosystem not only introduces a completely new and interactive end user experience. It also features a complete set of operator’s apps to allow them to have a strong impact on their business model. In particular, Asset App allows operators to remotely monitor equipment via a dedicated dashboard. With the Asset App, your cardio equipment can communicate with smart devices, which are capable of monitoring its operating status, sending messages to Technogym or your maintenance team whenever interventions may be required and automatically collecting and analysing data to display which types of equipment are the most used by your customers, in which days of the week or in which hours of the day.

SKILLMILL
SKILLMILL (pictured on the cover of the latest issue of Australasian Leisure Management) is the first non-motorized product that combines Power, Speed Stamina and Agility training, ideal for sports professionals, every day athletes and weekend warriors. This unique piece of equipment boasts a wide variety of workout routines to train the entire body through various levels of reactive resistance via High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). This versatile machine allows users to switch workouts quickly from resistance-free running to an all-out sled push with a simple gearshift.

As official supplier to five Olympic Games and partner to the world’s best performing teams and athletes, Technogym has first-hand experience in the training methods and systems of thousands of worldwide sports champions in over 100 different disciplines. This know-how is at the heart of Athletic Performance Training, a new methodology that helps create high intensity workouts aimed to improve sports performance and completes the SKILLMILL solution.

GROUP CYCLE CONNECT – a turnkey solution that creates a connected, interactive and immersive indoor cycling experience, featuring:
Group Cycle bike – powered by the rider’s motion, accurate tracking of heart rate, cadence and calories
Group Cycle App – allowing users to seamlessly track performance through the mywellness cloud
Touch Screen Kiosk – for trainers to monitor overall class performance and make real-time adjustments to workout
MYRUN – more than just a treadmill. It is the first solution for running at home that seamlessly integrates a treadmill and a native app that syncs to your tablet, and is designed to offer you the ultimate running experience, with personalised training programmes and instant running feedback.
