In the fitness world, this means that the hybrid model of fitness is a likely future. One example is Athlo, a hybrid fitness platform developed by former pro athletes and now available to anyone who wants to work out. It combines elements of both at-home and in-person workouts, allowing users to participate in virtual classes and receive personal coaching from professionals.

You can join a class or opt for one-on-one coaching; you can pick the type of workout you want (cardio, strength training, yoga, etc.) and even choose your instructor. The platform also offers an array of tracking tools, such as heart rate monitors and calorie counters, that help users track their progress over time. It’s also easy to use — you don’t need any special equipment or devices — so it’s accessible for everyone.

The next fitness unicorn also plans on providing products and services that will help people stay healthy and motivated throughout the pandemic. Athlo’s mission is to provide a platform that makes it easier for people to do the activities they love while connecting them with others who share their passions.

The app connects users with fitness providers, from yoga studios and gyms to personal trainers and nutritionists, allowing users to book appointments or classes at the best prices. It also allows users to search for activities by location or interest.

The app was designed to meet the needs of today’s fitness consumer—a consumer who is increasingly looking for flexibility, convenience, and customization when it comes to their fitness journey. The pandemic has accelerated this trend. Athlo is capitalizing on it by offering an online-offline hybrid model that gives users access to virtual and in-person classes and services.

Matthew Mansell – Athlo Founder: The platform is creating a hybrid world of fitness where members can access and share assets from both traditional and digital sources. The idea is that conventional gyms can offer their members access to digital content, such as video classes and tutorials.

Users can rent their gym equipment or offer virtual classes from home. Matthew Mansell believes that this hybrid fitness model will become increasingly popular, with more people seeking to stay fit without necessarily involving traditional gyms.

Moreover, Matthew Mansell believes the sharing economy model will continue in the coming years. As more people turn to digital solutions for working out, the sharing economy will provide an additional layer of convenience and efficiency for those looking for more flexible ways to stay fit.
