Moove - Team-Based Fitness

I’ve been using the Moove app for corporate fitness challenges both internally and externally and everyone who participates LOVES it! It’s such a great way to motivate yourself and others towards a healthier lifestyle, while having fun. We have created our own rewards system, where the winning team receives gift cards etc at the end of the season. Would highly recommend it for a team building or sales initiative!

The company I work at is doing a fitness challenge using this app, and the app has gotten in the way more than it has helped. Numerous bugs around “rest days” and activities that had been entered disappearing have added an extra random element to the challenge which is rather frustrating and demotivating. There were multiple times when a normal day was deemed a rest day by the app and so entering data for that day was blocked. There was also an instance where the app seemed to think the week was over on Wednesday. Without any sort of fitness tracker integration, workouts get normalized to the point of ridiculousness. (Comparing workouts based on METS only works if you can measure the amount effort/energy/power put into each workout.) Really disappointed. I won’t use the app again and am reluctant to do another fitness challenge through my work.

My friends from college and I started a team during the height of the pandemic and have been competing ever since. We are pretty spread out so keeping in touch is hard but moove helps us keep in touch.

Was in a funk with working out. Made a team with my friends and we had a blast. Fun and accountable, can’t wait for the next season!
