Your Gym. Your Outdoors. Your Data. Connected. Turn your cardio equipment into a powerful fitness tracker, or take your training outside. Thrivify Connect effortlessly links your Bluetooth FTMS gym equipment and your outdoor workouts to your Apple Watch and iPhone, offering real-time tracking, automatic logging, and seamless Apple Health syncing so every sweat session counts. Indoor treadmill, bike, rower, elliptical, or an outdoor run: monitor performance, visualize progress, and build lasting fitness habits. No more manual entry. Just seamless data. Beyond the Console: • Momentum Quest: Hit live targets for speed, power, cadence or heart rate to drain the boss's health bar. Targets are set from your own baseline, so every boss is a fair fight. Beat one and the next steps up, while your XP keeps building all session. Works on any connected machine. • Virtual Journey: Pick a real-world route and ride it on a live 3D map that moves as you move. Watch the miles tick by instead of staring at a console. • Live Diagram: Turn speed, power, cadence, heart rate and calories into rolling live charts you can read at a glance. Switch between modes anytime, mid-workout. • Machine Control: On supported FTMS machines, set target power (ERG), resistance, incline or simulated grade straight from your phone, and hold it there for the whole session. • Workout Goals: Set a duration goal before you start and watch it count down while you train — on any connected machine, whether or not its console accepts targets. Key Features: • Sync Tracked Workouts with Apple Watch: Leave your phone behind and log every session from your wrist. Start the Apple Watch workout app and your heart rate, distance, pace, and time sync straight into ours. • Real-Time Workout Tracking: Live speed, distance, time, calories and heart rate, with support for Bluetooth chest straps and armbands. • Multi-Equipment Support: Connect to treadmills, rowers, exercise bikes, stair climbers, ellipticals, and steppers. • Apple Health Integration: Automatically sync your indoor and outdoor workout data, calories burned, and active minutes directly to Apple Health. • Deep Workout Reports: Review splits, pace, cadence, heart rate zones, and your GPS route with its elevation profile, then export any report as a PDF or image. • Coach Thrivify: AI-powered workout tips, training insights, and personalized meal and workout plans. • Thrive Index: Balances your Recovery and Strain scores so you know exactly how hard to train without burning out, and tracks the Thrive Age your health trends add up to. • Workout Weather: Hourly, weather-optimized windows that tell you the best time today to head outside. • Thrivify Stream: Say goodbye to boring cardio. Stream your favorite YouTube videos inside the app while you train, with your live metrics displayed right alongside the video. Send it to the TV with AirPlay, and come back to a freshly curated playlist every day. Built for Better Fitness Results: • Track both indoor cardio and outdoor training in one complete history • Monitor calories burned and workout performance • Stay motivated with measurable progress • Make smarter, data-driven fitness decisions Compatibility: • Optimized for Bluetooth FTMS machines. Check your equipment manual for Bluetooth FTMS support to start tracking your workouts. • Machine control (ERG, resistance, incline, simulation) requires a machine that advertises those FTMS capabilities. • MyCloudFitness support is no longer available for newly registered users.
