PEAR Sports, the personalized and interactive audio coaching app, has launched a new app for Apple Watch. The PEAR app for Apple Watch allows users to experience PEAR’s fitness coaching, ‘developed by Olympians and world-renowned athletes’, with the controls right on the wrist as the athlete tracks distance, calories and heart rate.
The built-in heart rate sensors on Apple Watch enable PEAR’s advanced heart-rate technology to give real-time personalized coaching without the use of a heart rate chest strap. Users can also download their favourite PEAR workouts to Apple Watch and experience in-ear coaching hands-free – all that is needed is an Apple Watch and a pair of Bluetooth headphones.
PEAR allows users to choose from hundreds of workouts including HIIT, running, spin, TRX, boot camp and yoga. The company adds, ‘Whether you want to shed pounds faster, gain strength, improve your running time, or just enhance your overall fitness, PEAR has a workout to help you meet your goals.’
“Our users are big Apple supporters and we’re finally able to give them what they’ve been asking for with the new PEAR app for Apple Watch,” said Simon Sollberger, VP of Design and Branding for PEAR Sports.
“This integration exemplifies PEAR’s vision of having a smart, interactive coach with you at all times. The Apple Watch makes working out that much easier by utilizing wrist-based heart rate monitoring, eliminating the need for a heart rate chest strap, and the new app even gives you the freedom to enjoy workouts without bringing your iPhone along.”
The PEAR app for Apple Watch can be downloaded from the App Store for Apple Watch. New users that create a PEAR account will receive a free 30-day PEAR+ Membership, allowing them full access to the entire workout library.
PEAR Sports aims to deliver an innovative and intuitive technology that guides users through every step of their fitness journey. With over 500 unique workout programs including running, cycling and strength, users can experience real-time, interactive audio workouts and personalized training from some of the world’s most talented athletes and fitness experts.
Utilizing biofeedback and data, PEAR’s interactive software empowers its users to train smarter, keeps them motivated throughout the process and share in their successes. PEAR adds that it is ‘helping the everyday fitness enthusiast achieve better results, faster’.
