Workout programs and training plans are a key element to help new members get started on their fitness journey. A well-planned program helps boost members chances of transforming into a loyal long term member.
That’s why it’s important to ensure you deliver workout plans to members in a user friendly and engaging way.
Using paper-based workout programs is no longer industry best practice nor does it lead to the best experience for your members.
Using our FitDesk software gyms can create personalised workout programs for members and deliver them to them in a more modern and engaging way.
We explain the available options to deliver digital workout programs to your members using FitDesk.
Smartphone – Most members carry a smartphone with them when within the gym. They may use it to listen to music or to browse the web between sets. This allows the smartphone to be the perfect medium to deliver the members personal workout. Using FitDesk your gym members can access their personalised workout program complete with pictures and instructions for sets, reps and weights. Members can even record their performance for each exercise as well as view past results.
Kiosk
Not all members have access to a smartphone or want to bring their phone into the gym. This is why it can be useful to provide members with a way to access their workout within your club. This can be achieved by providing a kiosk or touch screen terminal where members can log into their FitDesk account on the gym floor and view or update their schedule.
There are several innovative kiosk options available that not only look great but make it easy for your members to access their workouts.
Options include;
Ipad wall or desk mounts – These allow you to secure an Ipad to a wall or a desk. The iPad can then be locked on to the FitDesk login screen ready for members.
Strategically placing 2-4 mounted tablets around the gym floor can be a great solution that looks impressive to members.
Another option is an Ipad Kiosk which acts as a stand-alone unit on the gym floor.
Finally, in line with Covid19, there are also now clean kiosk options that include a hand sanitising mechanism that allows members to sanitise their hands before engaging with their workout on the touch screen.
Web Portal
The final option in terms of delivering workouts to members is via the online web portal. This allows members to log into their FitDesk account, view their workouts, track their progress and monitor their results on any computers via a web browser. This can be useful as it allows members to access their workout even when away on holidays or on a work trip. It is also useful for those members who are detail orientated and like to carefully monitor their results and progress in their own time at home.
These modern options for delivering workouts to members with FitDesk can help transform your members experience when it comes to their workout programs which can have a direct postive impact on satisaction and retention rates.
