Fitstar
Personal Trainer allows you to get fit anytime, anywhere, whether at
home or on the go with
adaptive video workouts that evolve as you progress. The app uses your
own feedback to ensure each routine is built to match your fitness
level, and personalised to your strength and stamina. Fitstar Personal
Trainer features four comprehensive exercise programs
with hundreds of moves, as well as dozens of Freestyle sessions such as
“10-Minute Abs” and “Traveler 10,” which are a great way to mix up
fitness routines and see real results.
In fact, Fitstar data shows the effectiveness of these workouts; 85%
of people who use Fitstar Personal Trainer for at least five sessions
report an increase in strength[1].

For
the first time, Fitstar will provide a range of recommended workouts
based on your activities tracked with a Fitbit device and
deliver them right to your Fitbit and Fitstar Personal Trainer apps.
Fitbit users will see these workouts in the new “Guidance” tab coming
soon to the Fitbit app, and Fitstar users will find them in the
Recommended workouts section of their dashboard. With
this feature, if a user runs five miles wearing a Fitbit device,
Fitstar might suggest a customised Fitstar Personal Trainer session that
rests the legs and focuses on abs and arms. All users, both those who
track or don’t track activities with a Fitbit device,
will also receive workout recommendations in both apps based on the
sessions people in similar demographics are doing.

“Since
joining the Fitbit family in 2014, we’ve known the marriage of
wearables and our dynamic video workouts would lead to more
effective and relevant fitness programs,” said Mike Maser, Co-Founder
and VP of Fitstar by Fitbit. “The redesigned Fitstar Personal Trainer
app takes the next step in realising this vision. For example, by
intelligently matching your Fitbit-tracked activities
with Fitstar’s huge array of content, we’re delivering smarter guidance
that allows people to target specific muscle groups in order to reach
their goals faster.”
