Get Moving, Get Active with Myworkout
Centric is organizing a activity contest with Myworkout. We firmly believe that a healthy workforce is the foundation of a successful organization. Let’s empower our lives through fitness, one step at a time
To become a robust employee, you need to train properly. And by properly, we mean you need to breath heavy. During this period, we'll teach you to prioritize intensity over quantity - and you'll feel the effects of it.
Myworkout has developed unique technology that can measure your VO2max and biological age with scientific precision - just by using a smartphone.
VO2max is the most precise health parameter we know of; more important than blood pressure, cholesterol and BMI combined.
The app tracks HIT minutes per session. If you are out of breath for more than 2 minutes, the app starts giving you HIT points. HIT improve your health and general performance. Research says that the best cardiac training is hard work that causes breathlessness, for 3-5
minutes, but not to exhaustion. The intensity of the workout is crucial for the effect of
the training.
Using our technology, the app measures your biological age accurately, and by following our recommendations - reducing it by around 7 years in 8-10 weeks, statistically improving productivity and reducing illness-related absences. This is science, backed by Messi, Ronaldo - and 30 years of clinical research on different patient groups!
Centric is organizing a team-based activity campaign together with Myworkout. Tap the button, download the Myworkout app, find your team and join the team. The campaign starts 16 September.
How to onboard the campaign
How to score points
All activity earns points as long as it is logged in the app. This can be done directly in Myworkout Go (start/stop) or by connecting a heart rate monitor. We give extra points for HIT minutes, as these are the most important minutes for your physical health Questions about how to connect a heart rate monitor, what HIT minutes are, how they are collected and much more can be found in our knowledge base.
HIT vs. activity points
You get 4 points per HIT minute and 1 point per activity minute. Activity minutes are not in addition to HIT points. You do not get HIT points for strength training.
Do not use the app for this
As a rule of thumb, the app is intended to measure your physical activity and fitness level. You should therefore not use the app on your way to the coffee machine, when shoveling snow or walking the dog. More specifically for this campaign, we recommend that you focus on the training program we have made available to you here.
Logging your training
You get 0 points for passive registration. There may be a misunderstanding of how the system works. It's not passive tracking, you have to actually exercise. If you wait a day to register your activity, you risk getting 0 points earned in the activity competition
Point limitation
There's no limitations for this contest.
Want to learn about the fountain of youth? How to burn a calorie? Or how to train like Lionel Messi and Ronaldo? Then this is the seminar for you.
If you haven't started exercising before, walking is the easiest way to get started. It keeps both legs active, which is important for the blood to flow through the veins via the heart in the most efficient way.When you walk at a faster pace or on uphill slopes, you may start to get out of breath. We would like you to enter this zone twice a week for approx. 16 minutes each time. If you do this for just a few weeks, your physical capacity will improve, which means you'll be able to walk faster and maybe start running.
*If you already enjoy working out and know how it feels to be out of breath, do your thing and log it in the app 🥳.
