The Ultimate At-Home Workout Upgrade: Introducing Equipment Settings

Life-as-we-know-it has changed dramatically over the past month. With gyms across the nation shutting their doors and many mandatory social-distancing orders in place, access to gym equipment simply isn’t in the cards for most people. As we’ve all been adjusting our lives to this new normal, it’s as important as ever (for physical and mental health) that we stay active. 

With that in mind, our team at virtual Volt HQ has been working tirelessly to help you maintain your workout routine, whether your gym is a garage, backyard, or living room. As part of that effort, we’ve been building a brand new feature that enables you to customize your workout program based on your available equipment. I’m excited to announce that with our latest update, that feature is now live and available within the Volt app! 

 

Introducing NEW Equipment Settings!

Don’t have a cable machine? No problem! With our new Equipment Settings, you can now personalize your workouts and watch Volt adapt your training in seconds. This feature is particularly helpful for those who have some workout equipment at home and want to maintain continuity in your training during this pandemic.  Plus, when gyms do open back up, you can simply re-select the equipment you use and see your plan adjust, instantly keeping you on track. 

 

“I Don't Have Any Equipment. What should I do?”

If you are stuck at home and don’t have any available equipment, or want to switch to a Volt program specifically designed for that training environment, we recommend checking out one of our At-Home programs. These programs provide a great alternative to a gym-based plan and provide a high-intensity workout experience that will help you stay moving and active. 

 

Try Equipment Settings For Yourself

To customize your workout program, just open up your Volt app and go to Settings > Equipment Settings, select the equipment you have available, and your training will adapt in seconds. Have more questions on how to use the feature? Check out our help article
