Activio Launches Virtual Trainer Remote

Swedish fitness company Activio has announced the launch of the Activio Virtual Trainer Remote, the most innovative product designed for class profiles with integrated music.

The Activio Virtual Trainer Remote, a new solution from the Swedish company Activio AB, is currently the most innovative solution available for class profiles with integrated music. The system lets users choose a user name, hit play to start the music, and control the Activio Virtual Trainer and the Class Guide with their smartphones no matter where they are.

The Activio Virtual Trainer is a new addition to the Activio Fitness System, which allows fitness trainers and instructors to create profiles of their cardio class. Profiles help users see the efforts that lie ahead and prepare for them. The Activio Fitness System is a tool designed for heart rate monitoring during group training sessions. It provides users and trainers with instant feedback and comprehensive progress reports.

The Virtual Trainer is designed to interact with the website myActivio.com, which automatically stores users' training data to a personal online training diary. The site lets users track their progress and heart rate, and makes it easier for them to plan their next training session. The Virtual Trainer has two main components: Class Designer and Class Guide. The Class Designer lets instructors create the class profile in a web browser before the class, making the profile instantly ready to use. The Class Guide allows them to select a profile to use, which is then displayed during class.

The Activio Virtual Trainer Remote also allows users to start, pause and stop their music and profile with a simple press of a button. It was developed to facilitate the interaction between instructors and the Class Guide, but it can also be used as a music player.

The Virtual Trainer Remote requires Activio Fitness System software (version 4.2.0.0 or later), Android version 4.0 or newer, and Android 4.1 for gapless playback.
