One of the most relatable struggles in our human existence is getting off the couch and getting your body moving. Working out is definitely not everyone’s cup of tea, as it requires discipline and a certain type of mindset.
Going to the gym alone is a hassle, especially because of the commute. We wanted to simplify the process for you by introducing some cool Arab apps that help you get your workout on from the comfort of your home:
DubaiPT
Do you know how dating apps help match you with a suitable date? Dubai decided to create an app all about pairing you with the ultimate personal trainer.
It’s simple: Open the DubaiPT platform, select your location in Dubai, and select your type of workout, such as boxing, fitness, yoga, Zumba, or another type. Then, a collection of suitable trainers will pop up, and you’ll browse through the options until you find your ideal match.
The best part is that it can be online or in-person, including the training process, which means you never have to leave the comfort of your home.
GymClass – Bahrain
Bahrain made working out extremely easy through GymClass, the Bahraini platform that, under one single membership, gives you access to hundreds of fitness classes and gyms in Bahrain and Kuwait. It is known as a multi-pass fitness application.
Abdulla Buhendi and Omar AlZayani are the brains behind GymClass. Both are seasoned entrepreneurs with extensive experience sealing deals and working in digital marketing.
