You don’t need to run the length of Africa for a good workout!

It’s been another action-packed week for Lift Brands. In the world of fitness and personal achievement, Russ Cook's formidable challenge of running the entire length of Africa has captured the attention of people across the globe. Continuing the theme of epic achievements, Tim Franklin, another inspirational runner who we’re incredibly proud to sponsor, is nearing the end of his gruelling 26,232km run around the world - there’s ‘just’ 4,032km left!

Pushing the boundaries of what we believe is physically possible, their remarkable commitment serves as an inspiration to us all. However, at Snap Fitness, we understand that not everyone is ready or willing to go to such extremes in the pursuit of fitness - and that’s perfectly ok! Fitness is a personal journey, and it's about finding what works best for you to see the results and benefits you’re after.?

That's why we're thrilled to introduce the new look Snap App 2.0 - a reimagined platform designed to make our members' fitness journeys more accessible, enjoyable, and tailored to their individual needs. Snap App 2.0 launched last week and is free to all Snap Fitness members, so there’s no need to resort to extreme lengths to achieve personal fitness goals. Here's a glimpse of what our members can look forward to:

• A fresh new look with an updated and improved navigation experience
• An enhanced on-demand class experience with casting, subtitles, and automatic workout completion
• An advanced personal training feature that allows members to access personalised training programs at the touch of a button??

It’s good news for Snap Fitness clubs too:

• The redesigned app will boost member engagement?
• The advanced personal training feature empowers personal trainers to create, deliver and track workout programmes. This not only enhances motivation but also streamlines the training process for both trainers and members

At Snap Fitness, we’re constantly striving to make fitness achievable and enjoyable for everyone and our new app is poised to significantly enhance our members' omnichannel fitness experience by seamlessly integrating digital and physical fitness.?

As people demand more from fitness providers, this unified approach ensures that members receive a cohesive and comprehensive fitness journey, accessible anytime and anywhere. Whether members are engaging with our on-demand classes from the comfort of their home, participating in a live-streamed session while on the go, or attending a personalized training session at one of our clubs, Snap App 2.0 ensures a smooth transition across all platforms.

This omnichannel strategy not only enriches the member experience by providing flexibility and variety, the redesigned app provides members with everything they need to embark on a fitness journey that's uniquely theirs. Guiding them to a happier, healthier lifestyle - no extreme challenges in sight!?
