The Fitmob app recently launched to connect people with convenient [group fitness workouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remote-fitness-platform) within their designated city. The best part about the Fitmob app is that the more you work out, the less you have to pay per workout.

Fitmob’s CEO Raj Kapoor said in an interview at the startup’s San Francisco office that “Fitmob is redefining the gym for this new era of [social and mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sports-partners) by creating neighborhood fitness communities.”

With the Fitmob app, you just have to sign up and pay for workouts from your mobile device. Attending one workout a week will costs you $15, but if you work out twice in a week, it will cost you $10 per workout. If you're daring enough to workout three times in one week, it will only cost you $5 per workout. What [more motivation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitalflip) could you need? You get to save money and get in shape all by attending more group exercises. This sounds like a win-win to me.
