Escape Fitness's FunXtion Interactive Platform makes US debut
By Lauren Heath-Jones
The interactive platform allows users to train in and outside of the gym at anytime
Escape Fitness has recently launched the FunXtion Interactive Platform, a cloud-based, multi-device solution designed for use in functional training areas.
The platform consists of a touch screen interactive station, mobile app, website and wristband, and features gamification elements designed to improve performance. Members using the FunXtion Interactive Platform are able to learn new exercises and movements, record performance and personalise their workouts through the use of a virtual trainer.
It also offers an overview of their exercise activities, video demonstrations, stopwatch and countdown facilities, interval and tabata timers, statistics tracking and specially designed, goal-based workouts. The platform allows members to train at any time, both in and outside of the gym.
Matthew Januszek, Escape Fitness co-founder, says: “Escape is focused on enjoyable, innovative wellness solutions that help people push beyond their perceived boundaries to perform better in their daily lives.” Escape Fitness has recently completed an installation of the FunXtion Interactive Platform at The Cliffs at Mountain Park Wellness Centre in the US.
