Based on customer feedback and the company’s continued
investment in connected fitness, JRNY is an integrated feature on
the new Bowflex® Max Trainer® Max Total cardio machine, and
available via an app for the Bowflex® Results Series BXT216 and
BXT116 treadmills. It will be made available on more Bowflex,
Nautilus and Schwinn equipment over time.
JRNY’s adaptive coaching technology uses AI algorithms, data
from an initial assessment, and tracking from previous workouts to
create personalized daily workouts based on the user’s fitness
goals. Each custom workout is adjusted automatically based on how
the user is feeling, how much they improve, and their past
performance. Users also receive real-time feedback and expert
guidance from a virtual trainer, as well as rewards to celebrate
their achievements.
“We are focused on what will motivate and make our customers
successful long-term. They’ve told us the friendly, supportive
one-on-one coaching of a virtual personal trainer is a huge factor
in sticking with their fitness goals. Plus, the easy-to-use
interface, workout logs and broad selection of content helps keep
their workouts fresh,” said Jim Barr, CEO for Nautilus, Inc. “With
our digital platform, there are no gimmicks — just helpful
technology, backed by scientific and customer research that is
designed to get results. We’re building on decades of industry
expertise to bring our customers to the next level with our
connected fitness experience.”
The JRNY digital platform offers the company’s proprietary
Explore the World™ app, which allows users to train in locations
across the globe – from the Irish countryside to the beaches of
Australia – via high-definition video for an immersive experience.
It will launch featuring numerous locations to choose from and be
available by the end of 2019. JRNY also features an expanded
library of trainer-led workouts based on a user’s fitness level,
personalized running and walking coaching for treadmill users, and
additional rewards to celebrate and motivate users to complete
their workouts.
Users will have more entertainment options with JRNY, including
Bowflex radio and access to streaming services such as Netflix,
Amazon Prime Video and Hulu*.
“Through workout metrics and customer feedback, we are seeing
improved results for people engaging with our connected fitness
products; that’s why we’re committed to expanding this experience
on more products to increase our users chances of meeting their
fitness goals,” said Chris Quatrochi, vice president, innovation at
Nautilus, Inc. “Our new Max Total™ features an integrated
touchscreen and seamless access to the JRNY coaching tool, so we’re
confident this solution will deliver great results for our
customers.”
