Gym members always up for the challenge at Four Seasons Club

Written by Myzone | Friday, 27 September 2024

Fitness challenges come in all shapes and sizes, but few have the heart rate training and community benefits compared to a Myzone challenge.

More motivation for gym members, more visits, and more camaraderie throughout a club are all benefits of Myzone challenges. Below, we speak to Jennifer Ince, program manager at Four Seasons Health Club, on how competitive spirit and teamwork engaged gym members and rewarded their every effort.

Bringing the Olympic spirit to a themed Myzone challenge

“To align our Myzone challenge with the Olympics, we created a team-based competition that mirrored the camaraderie and rivalry of the Games,” explains Jennifer.

“Members were randomly assigned to teams of four, each representing a different country involved in the Olympics, such as Team Australia, Team Japan, and Team Canada.

“The challenge was simple: the team with the highest Myzone Effort Points (MEPs) would win. To make it even more exciting, we offered prizes for the top three teams, with members receiving Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals along with gift cards redeemable within our club.”

 

 

Gym member participation and enthusiasm

“Our members are always up for a challenge, and this competition was no exception. The atmosphere was filled with friendly competition, but it was clear that certain individuals ramped up their Myzone usage during the challenge.

“It was great to see how the Olympic theme brought out the best in our members, pushing them to work harder and engage more deeply with their fitness goals.”

Unique rewards and the recognition of effort

“We wanted to make sure that the rewards for this challenge were as special as the event itself. The first-place team received Gold medals and a free 30-minute massage from our in-house massage therapist – a prize that was highly coveted.

“Second-place earned Silver medals and $10 in club credit, while the third-place team received Bronze medals and $10 in club credit as well.

“To further recognize their achievements, we celebrated all the winners on our Facebook page and Instagram, giving them a well-deserved moment in the spotlight.”

Success stories from the Olympic Myzone challenge

“The Olympic Challenge was a tremendous success, with over 50 members participating. The high level of engagement and the enthusiasm members showed throughout the challenge was truly inspiring, and the overall participation rate with the excitement generated by the competition were definite highlights.”

Would you run a Myzone Olympic challenge again?

“Looking ahead, we’re already thinking about how to make the next Olympic-themed Myzone challenge even better. One idea we’re considering is expanding the challenge into a full Olympic event at our club.

“This could involve a series of physical events, with Myzone tracking progress and MEPs, while teams compete in various activities throughout the challenge.

“It would be a great way to bring even more energy and excitement to the club, encouraging members to not only improve their fitness but also to have fun and build stronger connections with each other.

“We’re excited to explore these ideas and continue enhancing our Myzone Challenges, ensuring that each one is better than the last!”
