Keeping our bodies and minds healthy is more essential than ever, but staying motivated can be hard. Myzone offers a fun way to structure your sessions through the app with Zone Match. Zone Match acts as a personal trainer in your pocket, motivating and challenging you to achieve goals set for specific workout objectives.
- Put your Myzone device on and activate it--we always recommend going to My Tile to be sure your heart rate displays before starting a Zone Match workout.
- Tap the Menu in the upper right corner and select Activities>Zone Match
- Select the duration of your workout at the bottom of the screen and choose from more than 20 different challenges.
- The goal is to match the zones as they change throughout the workout. The closer you are to sticking to the workout structure, the higher your Zone Match score will be.
- The workout will display on your Home feed, where your connections can follow your progress
You can use Zone Match to make your regular cardio sessions more fun or try this full-body circuit from our Master Trainer Emily Sopo. However, you choose to move, make it fun!
