iFIT responds to members with Netflix and Prime Video streaming
iFIT Adds Prime/NetFlix Entertainment
Currently, in beta, iFIT 2.0 is adding Netflix and Prime Video access to its members as part of an expanded feature set and redesign of its (UI) user interface. Now users will have screen buttons at the bottom of the APP, to watch movies and shows while working out. As the latest beta is being rolled out more members are invited to try out the new features. A full release of the new version is scheduled to be rolled out in early 2025. You can shop for an iFIT membership here.
Netflix and Amazon Prime Video streaming
One of the most demanded features, now it’s to become a native iFIT option. iFIT has added the capability to watch Netflix and Amazon Prime Video or listen to Spotify as members work out. There is an overlay that displays stats for the session over the streamed video, so users can keep track of how their workout is going at the same time.
iFIT joins Peloton and SoulCycle At Home Bike to offer entertainment as part of their workout apps. Netflix and Prime Video will be available across Nordictrack, Proform, and FreeMotion treadmills, bikes, rowers, and ellipticals. Learn more about all the new IFIT features.
Some of the new iFit 2.0 features, like streaming and Workout Creator, may not be available for older-generation exercise equipment prior to 2022. We did test iFIT 2.0 beta on an S27i Studio Cycle, purchased in March 2022, and all features worked seamlessly.
iFIT Overview
To recap, iFIT is an annual or monthly subscription-based fitness technology platform tightly connected with your Nordictrack or Proform Treadmill, Exercise Bike, indoor Rower, or Elliptical to an extensive library of equipment-specific trainer-led sessions, that take your workout experience to extraordinary destinations across the globe.
Closely integrated with your exercise equipment features, iFIT enables trainers to interact in real-time with your treadmill, bike or rower to adjust the speed, resistance, or incline, and some treadmill and bike models, even adjust the decline, all to match instructor cues plus changes in the terrain encountered as you are biking, running, walking, or hiking.
