27 Mar 2026 Myzone says it's adding strength training to the mix with HFA announcement BY Kath Hudson |
Myzone has unveiled three product innovations that are in development as part of its expanding Motivation Technology (MoTech) ecosystem. The new features – Strength Tracking, Garmin integration and Switch 2.0 – represent Myzone’s evolution beyond heart rate monitoring into a broader fitness ecosystem focused on motivation, engagement and consistency. This also reflects the broader strategy to evolve from a single-device, hardware-first solution into a connected, software-first fitness ecosystem, providing support across a wide range of training types and wearable technology. The Strength Tracking feature will recognise and reward strength-based training, allowing members to earn effort points during resistance workouts. The mechanics of the actual delivery of this feature are still under wraps and will be revealed later this year, says Myzone. The Garmin integration will allow smartwatch users to connect their workouts directly to the Myzone ecosystem via Myzone Go, which expands accessibility without requiring a dedicated heart rate belt. Switch 2.0 allows users to wear their device on the chest, arm or wrist while maintaining the accuracy and engagement features. Jay Worthy, CEO of Myzone, says: “These innovations represent the next step in expanding the Myzone ecosystem. We’re recognising more types of effort, connecting with more wearable technology and making our platform accessible to more people than ever before. Our mission remains simple: help more people stay motivated to move.” Close Window |
