FitXR, a company specializing in virtual reality and augmented reality fitness solutions, has added new highly accessible fitness classes to its 'Box,' 'HIIT,' and 'Dance,' studios. The new courses can all be played while seated and aim to allow users with varying levels of mobility to participate in fun and challenging workouts.
Those with disabilities, mobility issues, or injuries often hesitate to join a gym, participate in a workout class, or take up an exercise routine, which is why FitXR has set out to provide these users with a series of highly adaptive fitness offerings. In total, the company will introduce six new classes in early November. These will include 'Brain Boost,' 'Out of Breath,' 'Upper Body Sweat,' 'Short & Sweaty,' 'Rock It Out,' and 'Burn It Up.'
“We realize that fitness is not one-size-fits-all, so we’re thrilled to continuously create content that is accessible to a broad range of people, regardless of their experience, goals, or mobility," said the Co-Founder and CEO of FitXR, Sam Cole.
