Weight Watchers built a $2 Billion company using a simple points system to motivate good behavior.

The main product of HIIT based gyms, however, is really “exercise” itself. HIIT gyms have found success using equipment, classes, and professional guidance-so it is fair to conclude that their core offering is not threatened by an app. The primary challenge that HIIT based gyms face is maintaining each member at a high level of intensity over the long haul. Exercise often becomes a chore for the average person, HIIT becomes hard to keep up with, and attrition rates well above the industry average of 40% is the biggest challenge HIIT clubs face. So how can tracking help? wearable tech

Feedback, achievement, and giving the member a sense of consistent progress throughout their fitness journey is a powerful solution to the disengagement issue. But not just any activity tracking, one that measures exercise intensity, because that’s what HIIT based gyms are selling- exercise at a higher intensity than the member would ordinarily do by themselves, in a safe environment, over the long haul.
