What is Myzone?
Myzone aims to help people feel good about exercise by rewarding your effort, connecting you with others, helping you get the most out of your workout. Myzone is a heart rate training system that uses heart rate monitors, in-gym screens and a training app to create a connected fitness experience powered by personal effort, accurate tracking and real-time feedback.
Benefits of Myzone:
- Connect with friends, stay motivated, set goals and compete in YMCA challenges to win prizes or bragging rights.
- Achieve Myzone status ranking based on EFFORT not fitness.
- View calories, heart rate and effort in REAL TIME with easy-to-follow colors, maximizing your workouts to GET RESULTS!
What makes Myzone different?
Myzone is unique in that it tracks your effort. Effort is different for all of us, so when we work out, we should be rewarded for what we put in. Myzone Effort Points (MEPs) are tailored to how hard your heart is working, not just your fitness level or ability, and they're based on your individual heart rate zones. Myzone calculates your heart rate data and splits it into five zones. Each zone represents a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Every time you move, you’ll earn MEPs for every minute you’re in a zone.
