Fitness in Your Pocket

Today, there are many things you can download to your portable device, such as music, videos, and even full-length movies, but how many of these things can actually benefit your health? Well now, Rox Fitness, the revolutionary new portable fitness program you can take with you anywhere, can turn your iPod or other portable device into a powerful tool that can help you lose weight or increase your fitness level. Rox Fitness has a vast library of video workouts created by professionals that can be tailored to your individual fitness goals.

Giselle Schmitz, the Founder of Rox Fitness, and a busy Ad Executive, came up with the concept after discovering her busy work schedule made it difficult for her to maintain a fitness program. Gym memberships, she discovered, were a waste of money as she didn’t have the time to go to the gym, and more often than not, there was not a gym in the areas that she would travel to. Seeing a niche, Giselle thought there must be other people out there much like herself, with no time to integrate an effective fitness plan into their daily lives. Realizing the importance of health and fitness, and the ability of physical workouts to reduce stress and fatigue, Giselle set about designing a program that could work for her, while at the same time being able to accommodate her busy work and travel schedule.

The answer, she found, was in the portability of the system. A system that you could truly take with you anywhere that required no equipment would enable her to workout in a hotel room after a long day of meetings. The unanticipated side-effect was the money she saved by not having a gym membership. The system is designed around a few key factors, such as accountability. Research has shown that a key component of any fitness system must be accountability. Human nature is such that without an accountability system, there is a tendency to skip harder parts of a routine, as well as lose focus on the overall goal. Incorporating goals with accountability it turns out, is a powerful tool to any effective fitness program.

Another key feature that was integrated into the system was user-based scheduling. The user could set the schedule and change it as necessary, to ensure that the workout times were convenient. Encouragement from friends is also a key component, and the feature for encouragement from friends was added, via text message, or email. The total program evolved into a comprehensive fitness program with built-in accountablility and measurable results.

Today’s hectic schedule usually means that some things are sacrificed in order to meet responsibilities. Unfortunately, one of the first things to go is a fitness program, as we have a tendency to think of it as something we can always do when we have more time-but when will we have more time? Now Rox Fitness, the portable fitness program, has come up with a solution. The Rox Fitness program delivers customized exercise videos right to your inbox-no need to join a gym or buy exercise DVDs. The Rox fitness program also will fit your schedule-YOU decide when you do your exercises. Realizing that this alone is not enough of a program to produce results, we have incorporated an accountability system that also includes measurable results. You can even include friends in your program, and they can send you messages of encouragement via email or text messages. The program is very comprehensive, with many different exercise goals addressed. From building muscle to losing weight, whatever your goal is, we have a customized program for you.

We are launching this blog in order to tell people about our program, as well as receive feedback through commenting. We welcome comments, and for those of you who are presently using the system, we welcome your feedback.
