Stay motivated with the Kinomap app.
Kinomap is a multi-disciplined interactive fitness app. Subscribers can run, ride, or row through some of the world's most breathtaking landscapes without leaving their homes.
Using Google Maps, the Kinomap app guides you through a wide range of over 40,000 interactive courses, adjusting speed and resistance during your workout.
JTX Fitness machines contain Kinomap integration; your workout data bypasses the computer and transmits directly to the app via Bluetooth, providing an accurate and consistent record. Strava users can upload their activity once they have finished training.
Kinomap works by allowing app users to upload their own videos from workouts they have completed.
Other users can then follow along to these videos virtually on their machines and see detailed metrics on their performance such as speed and incline.
In 2019, Kinomap introduced the ‘Coaching’ feature to their popular platform.
Instructors upload videos and guide you through a workout. Users can filter these videos by equipment type and language to ensure they pick the right class to suit their fitness goals.
If you’re all about numbers, the app has a ‘Free Ride’ section. Once you start your workout on your piece of equipment, you can monitor and keep track of detailed metrics such as watts and speed. This allows you to focus purely on statistics and ensure you are reaching your goals.
All JTX Treadmills support the Kinomap app except the JTX MoveLight: Walking Treadmill, the JTX Slim-Line: Fold Away Treadmill and the JTX Sprint-3: Home Treadmill. Once connected, the app will receive speed and incline information directly from your treadmill. Your JTX Treadmill will also automatically change its incline to match your selected running route.
You can still connect your JTX Sprint-3, JTX Slim-Line and JTX MoveLight to Kinomap by using an NPE Runn™ Smart Treadmill Sensor. This device effortlessly attaches to the side of your treadmill and transmits accurate speed and incline data from your machine to the Kinomap app.
The JTX Strider-X8, JTX Pace-F6, JTX Tri-Fit, JTX Cyclo-Go X, JTX Racer-M JTX Studio V5 and the JTX Ignite Air are compatible with Kinomap. Cycle real routes around the world on the JTX Cyclo-5 and the resistance will automatically match the route on the Kinomap app. On the JTX Studio V5 and the JTX Racer-M, you will be prompted to adjust your resistance in response to the terrain displayed on your screen. The cross trainer will automatically adjust the resistance based on whichever route you have decided to follow on the app.
Kinomap has introduced a remote display feature for users to watch videos on their big screen. This can be any device that has an internet browser such as a laptop or internet TV.
Connecting Kinomap to your JTX Fitness equipment is easy and you should only need to do it once. Just follow the steps below.
Overall, Kinomap is great for seamless integration. The automatic incline adjustments to match the terrain of your route allow you to focus on your workout without having to play around with the buttons on the machine
The coaching functionality of the app is great if you're looking to replicate an instructor-led gym class from the comfort of your own home.
Although the amount of videos to follow can sometimes be overwhelming, you will struggle to get bored. You can travel all over the world without ever leaving your house.
Finally, the ability to share your achievements and challenge your friends will be sure to keep you motivated and add an element of fun to your training. Download Kinomap on the App Store or the Google Play Store today.
