Battles
-
Battles allow you to challenge friends, family, or colleagues to a workout.
-
This can be for fun or monetised for a charity of the individual’s choice.
-
Create a battle in the arena, select the workout you want to battle with, then invite your friends.
-
They have 48 hours to complete the battle.
-
Check the battle leaderboard to see where you have come, check your friends’ results, and see how much you have raised for charity.
Clubs
-
Creating clubs helps to build camaraderie between friends, family, and colleagues.
-
Keep an eye on the member’s stats and encourage them on their fitness journey.
-
Clubs can battle with other clubs for some healthy competition and create league tables.
Challenges
-
A challenge is similar to a battle, but it is created by a corporate partner (rather than an individual) and must be aligned to their chosen charity.
-
The challenge can be sent to the entire HiiT Nation or may be location-specific.
