NavaFit is out with a mobile app for iOS and Android, designed to help individuals find others to train with, participate in local fitness and sporting events, and stay motivated.

The application connects individuals who share similar fitness and wellness goals. As users connect and build their Squad, they can then use the app’s real-time messaging and activity discovery features to meet, train, and participate in events together. They can also share their accomplishments by posting photos and videos on the Brag wall.

“As high medical costs drive us to get more serious about fitness and wellness, individuals are constantly looking for new and fun ways to stay motivated and meet their goals”, said Sussy Coronel, the company’s co-founder & VP Marketing.

NavaFit also gives individuals access to coaching provided by certified personal trainers, dieticians and other experts. This service is delivered using video chat and text messaging, and was already put on test with a Detroit ad agency. Those participating lost weight, gained energy and felt a “high level of accountability” to their Squad and coach.
