We’re at a point where the world is reopening, and as life gets busier, it can be harder to find time for physical activity and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Regardless of your age or situation, staying motivated to stick to an exercise routine can be challenging.
Maybe you set yourself a New Year’s resolution to be more active, but it hasn’t quite worked out. Whether you’re aiming to run a 5k or take on a bigger challenge, remember it’s never too late. Exercising can be incredibly beneficial for your body.
The NHS highlights that regular exercise boosts self-esteem, mood, sleep, and energy levels while lowering the risk of serious health issues like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer.
In recent years, the tech and gaming industries have introduced products making exercise more enjoyable and engaging, and helping people connect socially.
Exercise should be fun to keep you coming back. That’s why The Conqueror has created a service for people of all fitness levels to experience famous real-world and fictional landmarks with every step they take.
The pandemic changed how we approach exercise. With gyms closed during lockdowns, people turned to new ways to stay fit, leading to a 46% increase in health and fitness app downloads worldwide. Many discovered they preferred these new methods over traditional ones.
The growth in this sector continues strong. In 2021, the global fitness app market was valued at $1.1 billion and is expected to grow at an annual rate of 17.6% from 2022 to 2030.
Fitness apps help users track and measure their fitness goals, encouraging them to stay on track. Having all their data in one place helps users make informed decisions about their exercise routines.
A Deloitte study found that 77% of people using health-tracking devices changed their behavior at least moderately.
The Conqueror lets you virtually climb Mount Fuji or swim the distance of the English Channel from your home or local area. These virtual fitness challenges allow you to achieve significant feats through walking, running, or cycling on your own schedule.
You can connect The Conqueror’s award-winning app or website to your favorite fitness apps, or manually log your progress. Completion rates are four to five times higher than average fitness programs, partly due to the reward system that offers both short-term and long-term incentives to keep users motivated.
As you advance through your chosen map, you unlock virtual postcards that track your progress. These postcards, sent via email, include historical information about each milestone.
Join a growing community of over 400,000 people worldwide through virtual challenges.
