MYZONE at FIT36

We have teamed up with MYZONE and are the first (and only) facility in Denver to have this technology!

MYZONE is a physical activity monitor that is used to motivate, monitor and track your fitness progress through a personalized online logbook! Just like saving for a home deposit, college fund or retirement, big goals can take a while and fitness is no different. MYZONE helps you break that large goal down into a series of battles and enables you to have daily, weekly and monthly wins all the way through your fitness journey. Seeing progress is very important to the attainment of any goal. FIT36TM is here to help.

While you train in the club, you’ll receive instant feedback that will automatically be sent to your online logbook as you finish exercising. While exercising outdoors, your activity will be logged and stored until the next time you return to the club. When you do return to the clubs hotspot, your exercise away from the club is then sent to your logbook and will begin logging your next workout. This process is effortless, as the belt sends the data wirelessly, giving you unlimited access to your online progress reports.

What this means to you is that you’ll have the feedback and information needed to ensure you have the motivation to reach the fitness goal you are seeking. Set challenges for yourself or send a challenge to another FIT36TM member to make it even more fun! Also, listen for upcoming FIT36TM MYZONE challenges to win great prizes!

Can you see how MYZONE’s instant feedback during and after every workout will help motivate you to reach your fitness goals? Let’s get to work!

What MYZONE Tells You

FIT36TM will have displays in the studio that display a tile for each member working out. The tiles show a lot of information.

Healthy Heart Zone (Warm up) — 50 - 60% of maximum heart rate: The easiest zone and probably the best zone for people just starting a fitness program. It can also be used as a warm up for more serious walkers. This zone has been shown to help decrease body fat, blood pressure and cholesterol. It also decreases the risk of degenerative diseases and has a low risk of injury. 85% of calories burned in this zone are fats!

Fitness Zone (Fat Burning) — 60 - 70% of maximum heart rate: This zone provides the same benefits as the healthy heart zone, but is more intense and burns more total calories. The percent of fat calories is still 85%.

Aerobic Zone (Endurance Training) — 70 - 80% of maximum heart rate: The aerobic zone will improve your cardiovascular and respiratory system AND increase the size and strength of your heart. This is the preferred zone if you are training for an endurance event. More calories are burned with 50% from fat.

Anaerobic Zone (Performance Training) — 80 - 90% of maximum heart rate: Benefits of this zone include an improved VO2 maximum (the highest amount of oxygen one can consume during exercise) and thus an improved cardiorespiratory system, and a higher lactate tolerance ability which means your endurance will improve and you’ll be able to fight fatigue better. This is a high intensity zone burning more calories, 15 % from fat.

Red Line (Maximum Effort) — 90 - 100% of maximum heart rate: Although this zone burns the highest number of calories, it is very intense. Most people can only stay in this zone for short periods. You should only train in this zone if you are in very good shape and have been cleared by a physician to do so.
