OUR COMPANY
OUR STORY
In 2015 GYMLETE began a quest to find a solution for personal trainers that would allow them to give their clients workouts, without having to give them a sheet of paper with an exercise/rep list and hope the client remembers how to do each of the exercises.
Unfortunately today, so many apps and software products require you to be connected to the internet to perform workouts, or you are subjected to long download times to watch an entire video that can easily take up a lot of space on your device. The other issue with DVDs or standard video feeds is the workouts are canned. Once you go through all the workouts, you have to wait for someone to build new content. With GYMLETE you can use pre-existing workouts, build your own, or have the software dynamically generate workouts for you at your level of fitness. You have full control over creating workouts for yourself or for your clients.
We wanted a way that workouts could be shared in a simple and fast way. This meant finding a way to eliminate the large download times that are required for streaming or downloading. Sometimes, depending on your network, it can take 30 minutes to download a 30 minute workout. No one wants to wait for a workout to download.
We have all been there at one point or another when the internet isn't working, perhaps in your studio or while traveling. When you want to run a workout but have unreliable internet, it means you are completely down and may not be able to work out as planned. Even worse, if you have a group fitness class that was expected to run, now you are affecting your members. Not with GYMLETE: if there is no internet, there is no problem; you'll still be able to run your workout.
We have solved the download problem. We include 1000's of exercises built into the app, and workouts are generated from a very small packet of data. Workouts can be downloaded long in advance. If the internet goes down or you are unable to receive data, no problem. GYMLETE will still work perfectly fine in your Studio, Weight Room, Group Fitness, even on a submarine below the ocean. No matter the solution you are trying to run, you will find that GYMLETE always works.
We can get a solution in place for you today. Using our technology we can create any kind of customization; not just putting your logo somewhere, but making the app your own. Backgrounds for the exercises, layouts, color - everything can be customized. We also develop custom apps for many of our clients. Contact Us today and find out how we can build the right solution for you at a fraction of the cost.
