Fitness Coach in Your Pocket? Pear Health Labs Launches AI-Powered Personal Trainer
The new “SmartCoach” feature provides personalized plans for users that adapt over time
Pear Health Labs, a digital fitness company specializing in wellness coaching solutions, has rolled out an updated release of Aaptiv, an improved digital audio and video fitness app that features “SmartCoach,” an AI-driven personal trainer.
“SmartCoach” crafts personalized and adaptable workout plans for users, tracking progress and capturing insights in the app.
Bob Allison, founder and CEO of Pear Health Labs, says that by harnessing the power of AI, his company is making personal training accessible to more consumers than ever before.
“Our new SmartCoach feature tailors and continuously adapts workout plans to each user’s unique goals, preferences and fitness level, ensuring that anyone can get the ultra-personalized support they need to achieve their health and wellness goals,” Allison said.
Aaptiv is also suited for corporate wellness, available as an employer, health plan or Medicare benefit.
After downloading the app, Aaptiv’s personal trainer asks questions to develop a hyper-personalized workout plan and then adapts it over time based on post-workout feedback and user information, such as fitness level, progress and injury. The app also pairs with leading wearables for biometric data.
In addition to SmartCoach, the Aaptiv app also includes the following:
- My Stats: available to users with or without wearable devices and offers a comprehensive analysis based on a user’s exercise routine and physical biometric data.
- Heart rate-based workouts: Aaptiv’s heart rate-based workouts measure heart rate during the exercise and provide on-screen feedback to help users target the appropriate heart rate zone.
The updated Aaptiv app is available in both the Apple and Google app stores.
