Our take

Fiit provides a fresh take on the fitness experience by prioritising user convenience, offering professional trainers, real-time feedback, and the unique feature of competing against friends, regardless of location.

Recognising that over 60% of individuals identify cost and travel obstacles as barriers to regular exercise, Fitt aims to eliminate these challenges. The concept revolves around user engaging in live workouts within the comfort of their homes, fostering a sense of community and making fitness more accessible.

The in-home personal fitness sector has seen significant growth in recent years. Fiit endeavors to tap into this expanding market, presenting substantial potential for growth. By allowing users to seamlessly integrate fitness into their daily lives and fostering a virtual camaraderie with friends, Fiit strives to overcome the common barriers to exercise, positioning itself as a contender in the dynamic landscape of home-based fitness solutions.
