New Machines Integrate with SchwinnConnect™
and MyFitnessPal® to Provide Tracking Capabilities
September 30, 2013: Nautilus, Inc. (NYSE: NLS), a leader in
innovative home fitness equipment, today unveiled new designs and
functionality for a new suite of Schwinn® cardio equipment. The
cardio products include upright and recumbent bikes as well as
ellipticals. Special features include a proprietary DualTrack™ LCD
display, USB media charge console and new acoustic speakers. In
addition, Nautilus has partnered with MyFitnessPal®, the leading
free personal health and fitness system, so users can seamlessly
sync their Schwinn® workouts and automatically update calories
burned on their MyFitnessPal® account.
“Building a product that is capable of connecting with fitness
communities as large as 40 million users is an exciting first for
our company,” said Bruce Cazenave, CEO of Nautilus, Inc. “We are
pleased to bring this innovative new cardio equipment to the market
that will give consumers greater accessibility and ease-of-use in
tracking their fitness goals through our brand new SchwinnConnect™
website. In addition, partnering with MyFitnessPal® will provide
the benefit of tracking accurate calorie burn and diet through the
day.”
These product enhancements are based on substantial consumer
research and feedback. Consumers want the ability to pursue their
fitness routines with the ability to multi-task.
The new line of Schwinn® products features the proprietary
DualTrack™ LCD display, which allows users to use their favorite
electronics, but still see their fitness activity. The enhanced
goal-tracking functionality records time, distance and calories.
Other features include 29 motivational workout programs, four
individualized user settings and goal tracking to measure results.
Users can upload their results via USB to the SchwinnConnect™
website for weekly, monthly and yearly progress tracking, which
then automatically uploads to their MyFitnessPal® account.
“Schwinn® is an iconic brand with a strong history of
innovation, and we are thrilled to partner with them to provide our
community of users with data from workouts on their Schwinn®
equipment,” said Mike Lee, co-founder of MyFitnessPal Inc. “Through
the SchwinnConnect™ site, MyFitnessPal® users will be able to view
their fitness progress in conjunction with their diet and be better
equipped to make active and healthy decisions.”
