Do More with Pacer Pedometer: New At-Home Workouts and GPS Fitness Tracking Help You Go Further
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Popular activity tracking app Pacer Pedometer got another major update with feature improvements that let users go beyond just step counting. The latest version includes new full body workouts designed for strength building and fat burning as well as improved outdoor exercise tracking, transforming the app from a simple activity tracker to a holistic mobile fitness solution.
New At-Home Workouts and Program Recommendation System
Users of Pacer now have access to guided workouts designed for all fitness levels. All of the new workouts can be done at home and with no equipment required. "Our mission is to help our users reach their fitness goals, no matter what kind of physical activity they want to use to get there," said Pacer's co-founder Michael Caldwell. "That's why we're expanding our offering to include customized workout programs."
To help users find their best workout program, the new version of Pacer also comes with a recommendation system. The system matches users to one of 17 possible programs based on their goals, current fitness levels and other behavioral data collected by the app. "This recommendation system is just the first step," explains Caldwell. "The usage data we collect from this system will allow us to start training our algorithms to build even more effective, individualized programs for every user."
