EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

MOOV NOW holds a unique position among the current wearable fitness solutions.
While tracking your daily activity reminds you to go out and get active, MOOV NOW
translates your exact movements into coaching.
Improvements are made through actionable insights. Real-time audio and visual

including running, cycling, swimming, body weight training, and cardio boxing.
M O O V N O W
Since debuting Moov back in 2014, we have worked closely with our users to pinpoint
what features they liked, didnt like, and wanted more of. MOOV NOW is the result of
their feedback: a more breathable, light-weight band for comfort, a 6 month-lasting
battery life, and the ability to adjust the amount of feedback Coach Moov gives.
Along with the accelerometer used in basic fitness trackers, MOOV NOWs Omni
Motion sensor employs a gyroscope to detect rotation and a magnetometer for
sensing orientation. These sensors give MOOV NOW the ability to recreate motion in
3D, allowing Coach Moov to give feedback as you exercise so you can improve your
form to prevent injury and hold you accountable to goals.

Moovs coaching philosophy is based on combining workout efficiency and results
with a passion for fitness and a desire to keep improving. We believe the best way
to get results is to enjoy the journey of achievement. Fitness is personal, and we
want working out with Moov to be a personalized experience, targeting how you
move and where you want to see improvement. Moov programs seek to find your
limit, whether it is endurance, power, strength, or cardio and push you to improve.
Our coaching method accelerates the path to these goals by creating workout
efficiency through intensity, intervals, form, variety and individualization.
Intensity: High intensity workouts provide more improvement in less time. Getting
your heart rate high keeps you burning fat even after youve finished working out.
Level up to increase difficulty and keep intensity high as you improve.
Intervals: Interval training has been proven as the most effective method for burning
fat and gaining strength fast. By pushing through high intensity intervals, users are
able to challenge themselves and unlock their potential, while earning a rest at the
end of each interval.
Form: With real-time form monitoring, Moov is able to target where you are losing
energy or risking injury so you can exercise longer and safer.
Variety: Dont get bored with your workout. As your body gets used to a consistent
workout, it burns fewer calories. Explore the Moov programs to work your body in
new and interesting ways.
Individualization: Moov is focused on you and how you move. Moov is your
companion, telling you when you can do better and how to do get there. You are
capable of more than you think and Moov will push that limit.
With a tough personality, Moov is able to push users toward their potential, while
instilling in them the desire to reach the next benchmark. We make each
achievement one you have earned, and dont let you cheat or slide by.

Once you have toggled all the switches, you will be brought to the Activity page,
where you will be prompted to set up your daily Moov. All the workout programs are
also listed on this page.
Our algorithm is designed to go beyond steps. Active minutes take into account
intensity and other activities, such as swimming and cycling, that shouldnt be
represented as steps. Our algorithm also keeps typing or moving your computer
mouse from counting as activity like it often does with classic step trackers (Moov

Activity tracking shows your Moov workouts as part of your daily activity.
Sleep Tracking
Moov automatically tracks when you fall asleep, woke up and how much you tossed

sleep (about 45% is a good benchmark). Moov learns from your sleep patterns, so
the more you use it, the more accurate it will become.

Moov 7 Minute+ workouts are based on the viral 7 minute workout published on the
American College of Sports Medicine Journal and popularized on NYTimes.com.
Research suggests that health benefits comparable to those of a long run can be
achieved in just a few minutes of high intensity exercise. Continue to see results as
you improve with Moovs level system pushing you toward tangible and gradual
goals.
Putting on Moov
Before starting a workout, put your Moov on your wrist. Place your Moov into the
small strap and put it on with a snug and comfortable fit. To secure Moov, insert the
end of the band into the loop on the other end and then insert the clasp into the
wristband and press it into the band to ensure that the clasp is flat and in line with
the band.
Once you have completed a level, the selection screen will show each set and if you
passed it, as well as how many of the reps in that set you completed and how long it
took you to complete the level.
Swipe left or right to view different levels and press the play button at the bottom of
the screen to start your workout.
For every exercise, there is a video instruction at the top of the screen, as well as
audio coaching on form. The closer you follow the coach, the more accurately Moov
will be able to count your reps. When Moov asks, Ready? it detects whether a
stable start position has been achieved, and then tells you to start once your position
is steady.
Moov counts your reps and pushes you on to the next exercise once you have
completed all of the reps required for that set. You can see how Moov is registering
your movement by the Motion Indicator on the screen. As you do a rep, the Motion
Indicator wraps around the center circle to show that you have done the rep
completely. The circle in the center may turn red occasionally. This is to indicate that
Moov has detected improper form or cheating.
Activity Report
Once you complete the workout, you will be given an Activity Report. This report tells
you the time duration of the workout, the total number of reps completed, and
calories burned. You will also be shown each set and whether you passed, as well
as a breakdown of each exercise and how many reps you completed in relation to
how many were required for that level.

Icons
Jab, cross, hook, and uppercut are signaled within the program using the following
icons:
Jab: A jab is thrown with the leading arm. The punch is thrown straight ahead, fully
extending the arm.
Cross: A cross is typically thrown using the dominant arm, which is the back arm.
This punch crosses over your bodys centerline and targets the same point as a jab.
Hook: A hook can be thrown using either arm. Lift the elbow so your forearm is
parallel to the ground and your arm is bent about 90 degrees. Punch to the side of
the target by turning at the waist and pivoting your toes.
Uppercut: An uppercut can be thrown using either arm. The arm is brought low and
then strikes out and up with about a 90-degree bend at the elbow toward the
opponents chin.
Further instruction on these punches can be found in the Basic Training videos.
The blue icons that come up occasionally in fast sections indicate a hit on a half
beat. When you see these icons, prepare to hit fast!
Point System
Each punch is rated on a scale from 0-8000 points. The points awarded are based
on a combination of power, speed and timing. An 8000 point punch would be fast,
powerful and have perfect timing. The points from each punch add up to give you
your total score at the end of each round.
MOOV:%REVIEWERS%GUIDE% 21%
Hitting many targets in a row earns you a score multiplier. The score multiplier
increases from 1-6x as you hit more targets in a row. But beware, once you miss a
target youre back to 1x.

PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT MOOV
Moov Now is a $100 fitness wearable that does what Apple Watch and Fitbit
cannot - Jon Phillips, PC World
More than any other startup Ive written about and thats hundreds Moov has
changed my life. - Charlie Custer, Tech in Asia
While Moov is all about the AI during your workout, you can still access all the data
behind that machine learning when you're back in the app. You can track your sleep,
review past workouts, and monitor your daily activity - Sean OKane, The Verge
The little tracker that was the brain child of a former Apple engineer and two
Microsoft veterans was designed to help novice users with little to no gym know-how
to get in shape. - Dan Graziano, CNET
By analyzing a 3D model of your form, Moov can push you, like an attentive coach,
to get the most out of your workout. It isnt a fitness wearable for people who just
want to count how many calories they are losing. Its for people who want to improve
their form, and track that improvement. It's an incredibly addictive cross between
Guitar Hero and Dance Dance Revolution. - Nathan McAlone, Business Insider
Moov made me want to box again, and the desire to keep exercising is just as
important as getting better at it. - Valentina Palladino, Toms Guide
User Feedback
"Ive been using Moov for the last 4 months and now I am able to run farther than I
have for the last 10 years. Using your coaching techniques, I know that I can
continue to be a better athlete by building more muscle and burning fat." - Abe
"Chaz" Hirschel
Given the amount of money I have shelled out for a personal trainer in the past, this
is definitely not only a great economical choice, but it became the greatest game
changer to my health and fitness level so far. Amazon Review
This tracker has changed my life. Went from a lazy idle unhealthy dude to an active
all-around athlete. Im even going to run a marathon real soon. Before purchasing
this tracker, I didnt even run on the treadmill because it seemed pointless and never
brought any results. Now I compete and actually look forward to going on daily runs
and all other sort of fitness activities. Amazon Review
