Myzone® Launches MZ-Open: A New Era for Smartwatch Fitness Integration
Krissy Vann | Host, All Things Fitness and Wellness
Myzone® has unveiled MZ-Open, allowing Android and Apple Watch users to integrate directly with the Myzone® system on their smartwatches. This innovative move, described by Founder Dave Wright on LinkedIn as a "game-changer," eliminates the need for an additional Myzone device, enabling users to partake in the global Myzone ecosystem more seamlessly than ever before.
Dave Wright shared his enthusiasm for the initiative, emphasizing its potential to transform how individuals engage with fitness technology: "This ‘game-changer' is ideal for those smartwatch wearers who walk, run, ride or swim - as you can now join the Myzone® Global ecosystem, appear on the club's Myzone screens, earn MEPs, participate in challenges and achieve those statuses."
With the "big ‘switch on’" scheduled for March 13, 2024, Myzone® aims to extend the reach of its connected fitness communities across the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. This expansion promises to significantly enhance the ability of Myzone-powered training zones to attract a wider audience, fostering greater engagement within the Myzone ecosystem.
MZ-Open also addresses the occasional inconvenience faced by users who forget their Myzone belts or find them uncharged, by allowing dual activation on a smartwatch. While activities that involve lifting, punching, swinging, or functional training will still require the traditional Myzone devices such as the MZ-3, MZ-1, or MZ-Switch, the introduction of MZ-Open broadens the accessibility and convenience of staying connected with the Myzone community.
The announcement underscores years of dedication to customer feedback and data analysis, aiming to enrich the Myzone experience. "Yes, this has been years in development... listening to customers and analyzing our data... so we hope you love it as much as we do," Wright noted, highlighting the company's commitment to evolving in step with the needs of its users.
