The update introduces a new Apple Watch companion app that presents users with biometric feedback across Apple devices when they exercise and utilizes the latest features available in iOS 10 and WatchOS 3. Beachbody On Demand and Beachbody’s P90X® program were highlighted by Apple during its September 2016 keynote as an example of the enhanced, integrated experience made possible by pairing the latest Apple products with Beachbody’s proven content and the innovative iOS app.
Users can access real-time biometric data, including continuous heart-rate monitoring with haptic feedback for zone-targeting, overlaid onto Beachbody’s premium fitness content to create an exciting, immersive, and unique user experience.

By combining ongoing technological innovations with easy access to a vast library of proven programming plus constant peer support, we are seeing more and more people get excited about living a healthier lifestyle. It’s still about the human experience, but enhanced with technology.”
In addition to the overlay of biometric data during a workout program, Beachbody On Demand provides a detailed summary of a user’s performance including how long they stayed in each heart rate zone to help maximize results over time. With the combined technologies of the Apple Watch and the latest version of the Beachbody On Demand mobile app, Beachbody is integrating data into proven premium content, putting fitness and health squarely in the hands of its users to help them reach their goals.
BOD users also have access to a variety of program tools including workout calendars, fitness guides, and in-depth nutrition plans, along with simple navigation that makes pausing and playing intuitive, even mid-workout.
