iFIT ENHANCES YOUR EXERCISE EQUIPMENT
AutoAdjust and SmartAdjust
In addition to the vast library of well-designed trainer-led classes, iFIT Pro technology will recognize the type of equipment you have and allow trainers to make real-time adjustments to match the session activity as it’s happening. As an option you never have to touch your machine's controls so you can focus on your workout – iFIT AutoAdjust can change real-time your machine’s resistance, speed, incline, or decline to match the studio workout or destination terrain you are running through, rowing, or cycling on. Your instructor can dynamically adjust settings to synchronize your equipment with your personalized workout (SmartAdjust). Most NordicTrack and Proform iFIT users report loving these features, especially with the destination trainer-led workouts. and we concur.
iFIT AutoAdjust - No Gimmick
This is much more than a gimmick, it’s the high level of integration with your exercise equipment and workout content that makes iFIT unique. For example, on a Nordictrack Commercial treadmill series or S22i Studio Bike you are actually climbing up a real slope or descending down a trail incline. This elevation feature is not a fancy gimmick, it totally gets your heart pumping, builds strength, stamina, and yes, your quads will burn at first, but then you are rewarded with the downhill, which is super cool, as the bike or tread speed increases and the resistance gets easier.
If you're not into this or a certain session segment is too easy or too hard simply make your own adjustment decisions, then later choose to re-join the session as trainers provide a “heads-up” as to what's coming up. You can also decide not to use iFit and opt out of taking classes and yet use your equipment making your preferred changes to speed, incline, or resistance as you go.

The best part with an iFIT membership is you are working out with a personal trainer on your schedule, no gym hassles – let’s face it, gyms can be off-putting, maybe a little gross to some, filled with germs – a less attractive option than home.

iFIT ─ Final thoughts
iFIT Pro delivers well produced, quality designed workout content. And why it is one of the best implementations of connected-fitness workouts with exercise equipment. The iFIT app is designed to work across a range of rowing, treadmill, exercise bike, strength, and elliptical exercise gear that supports a fantastic array of trainer-led workout sessions in-the-studio, and at locations across all seven continents.
iFIT Trainers are elite athletes and personal trainers who are talented at what they do. They educate, challenge, push, entertain, motivate to keep you on track. iFIT offers such a wide variety of equipment-specific & cross-training class options streamed to your exercise equipment. You never have to do the same workout twice — although we often do. There’s nothing like rowing in French Polynesia or hiking the Swiss Alps to get you out of breath yet take it away at the same time —the views are amazing.
Overall, we found iFIT addictive and followed our favorite trainers, taking some sessions multiple times without being bored. We particularly enjoyed doing the Destination series workouts like rowing in the South Pacific, French Polynesian Islands with Kevin Scott, or walking on the Wild Side of the Serengeti African Savanah with Dr. Evan Antin. If want some cardio but hate running, then the hiking the Swiss Alps with John Peel or with Tommy Rivers in Patagonia will do the trick.
Interesting, intense, and a lot of fun virtually exploring the world with iFIT or training in a live event session — and so is the ability to let your iFIT trainer dynamically adjust in real-time your type of equipment's incline, decline, resistance, or speed with AutoAdjust and SmartAdjust.
These options are designed to automatically change your equipment to match the workout intensity or the terrain you are running through, cycling on, or rowing as you train. You can focus on the session without worrying about messing around with adjustments to speed, incline, or resistance settings, on your treadmill, incline treadmill, Studio S22i or s27i bike, or indoor rowers.
iFIT Pro instructors mix it up for you to get in a full-body workout. With cross-fit segments added to many sessions, you get cardio + strength training. Trainers provide an experience you will look forward to more and more every day, as you see improvement and as they help you reach your health and wellness goals. So go ahead and crush it with iFIT.
