Unlock the power of your members' existing smartwatches. Integrate Apple Watch and Android Wear directly into your gym’s digital ecosystem without selling additional hardware.

Myzone Go is the smarter, simpler, and more scalable way to drive member motivation on and off your gym floor.

Read on to learn more about Myzone Go and discover your new competitive edge. Or, discover how to drive adoption for smartwatches in your gym.

 

Apple Watch and Android Wear gym integration

Myzone Go takes the power of Motivation Technology (MoTech) and places it directly onto every member’s wrist through their existing smartwatch. No barriers. No waiting for hardware. Just instant access to effort-based training, real-time feedback, and the behavioural nudges that keep people coming back.

For operators, this is a bridge between in-club experience and everyday habit formation.

Members are active in more ways, in more locations, and in more moments than ever before, but there’s a fundamental challenge for every operator:

How do you stay part of someone’s training routine when they’re not on your gym floor?

Until now, many gyms could only influence motivation when members were physically inside the club, or wearing dedicated hardware.

Myzone Go changes the model, offering Apple Watch and Android Wear fitness tracking for gyms.

By opening your Myzone ecosystem to smartwatches, you can remove friction points that stop people from getting started. No additional sell and no need for members to remember a device. Just a smartwatch compatible group exercise system with the same accuracy-driven, community-fuelled motivation, from wherever they train.

For you, that means better engagement. For your members, that means better habits.

 

What Is Myzone Go?

Myzone Go is the evolution of Myzone’s motivation ecosystem, allowing members to use their smartwatch as their Myzone device.

Ask any member to simply download the Myzone app, connect their Apple or Android smartwatch, and instantly unlock:

  • Real-time heart rate zones
  • Myzone Effort Points (MEPs)
  • Challenges and community features
  • Status levels and Weekly Streaks
  • Workout summaries and shareable stats
  • A community that moves with them, anywhere

It’s everything Myzone is known for, but now accessible to anyone, anywhere, at the tap of a screen.

 

Why Myzone Go matters for fitness operators

If member retention with smartwatches and greater depth in your compatible gym software wasn’t enough, the benefits that Myzone Go brings for both your business and your membership include:

1. A bigger reach, instantly
Your current community is only part of the potential. Myzone Go allows you to motivate:

  • Members who haven’t bought a device yet
  • New joiners who want to see immediate value
  • Remote or hybrid members
  • PT clients training outdoors
  • Corporate wellness groups
  • Friends and family of existing members

Every Apple or Android smartwatch becomes a gateway into your ecosystem.

2. Zero-barrier onboarding
One of the biggest killers of new habits is delay. Myzone Go lets new members feel the Myzone effect on day one, with the wearable they’re already used to.

This supports faster engagement and strong behavioural momentum, as a result of Motivation Technology’s impact on member lifestyles.

3. Motivate more people beyond your walls
As much as you help people on their fitness and wellbeing journey, most behaviour change happens in the hours when your members aren’t with you.

With Myzone Go, you can:

  • Keep your gym community on track
  • Build routines with members
  • Reinforce habits
  • Reward consistency
  • Influence behaviour daily

Retention in action and out-of-club support not only raises your staff’s soft skills, but it keeps members coming back for longer.

4. A more connected, more competitive community
Myzone Go strengthens the social glue of your facility. Integrating Apple Watch and Android Wear directly into your gym’s Myzone ecosystem unlocks all the power of heart rate training through Motivation Technology, driving every community benefit.

Members join challenges, compete on leaderboards, and cheer each other on, whether they’re taking part in a class, running on a treadmill, lifting in your functional space, or walking around their local park.

It’s time to start building a community culture that your competitors can’t match.

 

How Myzone Go works: Simple, fast, seamless

Any individual can sign up to Myzone Go, with no work needed from gym staff to get them started. For every member that signs up to a six or 12 month subscription, the gym also receives an acquisition rebate.

To get started, a gym member simply needs to:

As with any Myzone device, members earn MEPs based on effort, not fitness level. Fitness professionals get deeper insights, more engaged members, and more consistent visits.

It’s frictionless for them. It’s transformative for you, as Go opens the door to more people experiencing your Myzone ecosystem to feel the benefits of Motivation Technology in action.

 

What gym operators gain from introducing Myzone Go

1. Higher engagement
More people using Myzone → more community benefit → more MEPs → more visits.

2. Higher retention
Motivated members stick around longer. Behaviour change fuels loyalty.

3. Stronger social elements
More members in your Myzone world means more connections, more encouragement, more belonging.

4. Clear operational value
Whether you want to grow memberships, boost PT, or power group classes, Myzone Go builds momentum in every direction.

5. Predictable income from anyone with Apple Watch or Android Wear
Your acquisition rebate from signing members up for a six or 12 month Myzone Go subscription is all taken care of so long as they’re signed up with your facility code.

 

The behavioural science behind Myzone Go (why it works)

As Dr Heather McKeee, Myzone’s motivation science advisor, explains: There are three scientific principles at play when understanding how to keep members engaged.

Self-determination theory, which is about ensuring members’ psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, are all met.

Habit formation and the habit loop of: cue, routine, and reward, transitioning short-term willpower to long-term skillpower.

Identity-based motivation, when behaviours become part of who someone is and not just what they do.

By making effort visible, rewarded, and socially recognised, Myzone transforms movement from an activity people do into a reflection of who they are. Myzone Go gets more people on this motivation journey.

 

What Myzone Go means for your business

By offering gym software for Apple Watch and Android Wear, you create a facility that inspires people all week instead of only when they’re in your building. Myzone Go is the bridge between your community, your programming, and the lifestyle your brand represents.

It makes your gym:

  • More accessible
  • More inclusive
  • More connected
  • More competitive
  • More “sticky”

This is the future of fitness – Motivation Technology, unlocked for smartwatch owners.

If you want to increase member engagement, strengthen retention, make motivation part of everyday life for people, and grow a community that chooses you for the long run, it all starts with opening the ecosystem.
