Gympass acquires Trainiac personal training

The corporate wellbeing platform Gympass has acquired Trainiac, a one to one online personal training, now becoming Trainiac by Gympass.

The move will add a new level of personalisation to the Gympass experience; helping users to establish new habits and long-lasting fitness routines, and adding significant value to Gympass’ corporate clients looking to support an increasingly decentralised workforce.

Through Trainiac by Gympass, users will be paired with a certified coach to build a bespoke fitness programme to be delivered in the app. The trainer and user can leverage in-app tools including video, text and voice messaging, workout schedules and further health-metric tracking, to create a personalised and sustainable fitness solution, regardless of where the user is in their wellness journey.

“We’re thrilled to add Trainiac to the Gympass family and see the acquisition as a pivotal decision to continue our growth as a business, whilst providing even more value to our users at a time where health and wellness are at the top of people’s priorities,” said Cesar Carvalho, co-founder and CEO of Gympass.

“The complexity of modern life means that beyond access to venues, many users require additional support, accountability and motivation to remain committed to their fitness goals.”

The Trainiac by Gympass offering will be made available for US customers starting in early 2022, with a global rollout to progress through the remainder of the year.
