FunXtion enhance interactive workouts with the launch of Virtual Player

The fitness industry is rocketing through a digital revolution and it’s key to continually innovate in order to differentiate
– Ernst De Neef, CEO, FunXtion

Digital meets personal with the new Virtual Player from FunXtion, experts in interactive fitness, which allows clubs to stream and schedule world class virtual classes anytime, providing an interactive workout experience on the gym floor, functional area or directly to members at home via an app.

FunXtion helps gyms stay relevant with energising fitness content and smart digital delivery. With this in mind, the Virtual Player has been created already holding more than 300 virtual classes, from yoga to HIIT and from Dance workouts to Boxing, with more uploaded every month so that members can access a huge library of workouts performed by world class instructors 24/7.

The Virtual Player is also fully customisable to the brand of the gym or studio, as well as the facilities concept, ensuring that your brand is kept at the heart of the member experience.

Instructor-led classes will be taken to the next level with this digital support as they have more time to coach, motivate and make personal connections with members. By utilising FunXtion’s intelligent schedule tool and workout creator functionalities which includes access to over 2500 inbuilt exercises, instructors can build workouts, plan them months in advance and even set them to their own music.

Ernst De Neef, CEO, FunXtion adds: “The fitness industry is rocketing through a digital revolution and in order to catch up, it’s key to continually innovate in order to differentiate. We created the new FunXtion Virtual Player as a flexible, white label all-in-one solution to take any gym or studio to the next level. Perfect for instructor-led classes or looped workouts for individual member training, the Virtual Player is the next step in digitalising the member fitness journey.”
