Honestly, don’t they look like normal dumbbells? The BowFlex Selecttech 552 has a whole bench of functions behind it – just without bulky kits and space-consuming weight plate stands. This nifty piece of fitness equipment replaces 15 separate sets of weights and combines them into one space-saving weight. The desired weight per dumbbell can be set between 2 and 24 kg using the adjustment wheel. These extremely versatile weights make training easier than ever, allowing you to switch between heavy weight training and light, full-body exercises “in the blink of an eye.”
And now there is the AI factor:
You don’t have a large studio mirror at home, but these dumbbells track your exercises! How? Through the connection to the adaptive fitness platform JRNY, which, when used with your cell phone or tablet, takes a look at your workout in your living room and gives you feedback on the correct execution of movements!
“MOTION TRACKING” is the name of the groundbreaking new function that adds robotic elements to the JRNY app. When training with BowFlex® SelectTech® dumbbells and the JRNY® app with motion tracking, users get real-time voice feedback that tells them how to adjust their movement in the moment.
JRNY® with motion tracking also counts the repetitions and takes this information into account when making recommendations for the next training session. At present, JRNY does not yet record the weight selected via the camera. This means that the user should confirm the weight used either by voice command or by selecting it in the JRNY app and then start training. This will certainly work automatically soon, after one of the next updates.
This allows users of all fitness levels and abilities to improve at their own pace.
The ideal gift for all family dads and moms who can’t make it to the gym, stressed home office managers who want to get their body going every now and then and everyone who wants to remain a couch potato but wants to bring their body back into balance.
