Xbox Fitness is a service exclusively for the Xbox One console, which features fitness and exercise videos from top-tier and popular trainers Jillian Michaels, Tracy Anderson, Tony Horton of P90X and Shaun T of Insanity.[1] Xbox Fitness is one of the 22 game titles that launched with Xbox One and in the first 24 hours after the launch, 43.4 million points were earned by players in Xbox Fitness. The game uses the Kinect sensor to track the player's heart rate and estimated calories burned, and gives some feedback about how well the player is performing the exercise activities.[2]
The service uses the Kinect 2.0 sensor to track the player's heart rate, estimate calories burned, and to provide feedback in form, balance, and power.[3] Using Kinect technology, Xbox Fitness can read the player's heart rate without a monitor and see which muscles are most engaged by measuring the power, force, and transfer of weight in the body. It can also track balance, tempo, and form of the player's body. Xbox Fitness includes workout routines that range from 10 minutes to 60 minutes and the service is free through December 2014 for Xbox Live Gold subscribers.[4]
To motivate the player, in-workout challenges are presented and achievements can be earned.[5] When the player is completing a workout, the silhouette of the body will appear on the right side of the screen with colors and movement to showcase which muscles are engaged and how hard each is working.[6][7] Players will see how their Fit Points and scores compare to their past efforts, their friends, and the Xbox Live community. Xbox Fitness can also synchronise data with the Microsoft Health platform.[8][9]
The game was developed by Microsoft Studios, in partnership with Sumo Digital.[10][11]
