Technogym u Technogym’s mywellness key received the
prestigious Health Innovation Award during the FIBO trade show held recently in Germany. The mywellnesskey is a portable device that measures an individual’s daily physical activity, and assigns a daily target based on one’s lifestyle. The unit provides immediate visual feedback through a bar that has to be filled—the more the user moves, the faster the bar fills, indicating if the target has been reached. Inside health clubs, the mywellnesskey allows clients to activate the Technogym machines on their personal training program and save the results, which helps them to achieve their daily target.
