Nautilus Inc. Debuts JRNY® With Motion Tracking To Enhance Personalized Fitness

Home fitness pioneer continues to invest in consumer-driven innovation

VANCOUVER, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–At a point when many people are on the verge of giving up their New Year’s resolutions, Nautilus, Inc. (NYSE:NLS) is enhancing the JRNY® app with Motion Tracking to jump-start those health and wellness goals. This new experience in the JRNY® adaptive fitness membership requires only an Android or iOS tablet to offer intelligent coaching and guide the user’s form for a great workout.

“Where other products in the market require single-purpose screens or devices, the JRNY app with Motion Tracking offers personalized coaching and feedback, rep counting and individualized workout recommendations using the tablet you already own, for a combination of features and convenience that’s raising the bar for connected fitness,” said Jim Barr, CEO, Nautilus, Inc. “The JRNY app leverages proprietary technology and machine learning expertise from our acquisition of VAY and positions Bowflex as an innovator in the strength training category. These enhancements to the JRNY platform mark an important milestone for Nautilus in our long-term strategy to provide a superior, consumer-driven connected fitness experience.”

When users work out with Bowflex® SelectTech® Dumbbells and the JRNY app with Motion Tracking, real-time, voice-assisted feedback tells them how to adjust their movement in the moment. JRNY® with Motion Tracking also counts reps, records actual weight used, and factors this information into recommendations for the next workout, to help users of all fitness levels and abilities to get stronger at a rate that’s appropriate for the individual.

“The JRNY app with Motion Tracking provides not only verbal coaching but also a view of your movement so that you can make accurate adjustments as you work out, and that goes a long way toward building a balanced body and long-term fitness,” said Wes Citti, Senior Digital Product Manager, Nautilus. Inc. “We are meeting you where you are and elevating your workout experience, to help you grow stronger and reach your definition of what success means to you.”

The Motion Tracking technology follows multiple dimensions of movement as the user completes on-demand, trainer-led workouts. At release, the JRNY app with Motion Tracking offers workouts that are designed for use with Bowflex SelectTech 552 and Bowflex SelectTech 1090 Dumbbells, and with Android or iOS tablets. For a limited time, new JRNY members will receive a 1-year complementary JRNY membership. Following the free trial, a JRNY membership will cost $19.99 per month, or $149 per year.

How JRNY With Motion Tracking Works

After downloading the JRNY app, users create a profile including which dumbbells they have. They also indicate several preferences for their workouts to establish a baseline and help personalize future workout recommendations. Workouts with Motion Tracking appear in the Dumbbells program category and are tagged as “adaptive.”

• To take advantage of intelligent coaching, users will navigate to the Dumbbells program category and look for the “Adaptive Program” tag on workouts.
• At the start of the workout, users initialize the Motion Tracking technology with two movements for optimal tracking. Throughout the workout, the app tracks more than 15 strategic points to determine location, direction, and speed of movement for the purpose of assessing form and counting reps.
• Time left in a movement interval, the number of reps completed and remaining, and the weight required for the next interval are conveniently displayed on screen.
• An AI voice assistant delivers intelligent coaching and responds to commands such as updates to actual weight used.

“When it’s possible to track just about everything, it can be overwhelming to figure out what’s important,” said Citti. “Motion tracking is the key to providing meaningful, judgment-free feedback that can make every workout count in the moment as well as over time, as users make progress on their goals.”
