This App Provides Workout Motivation With Cross-Device Fitness Competition

Keeping fit with a friend or an entire group helps keep individuals motivated and on track to meet their goals.  Sometimes, a little friendly competition helps, too.

Today, Matchup released a mobile web-based app that inspires both community and competitive fitness via a smartphone.  Matchup users will not have to text, instant message or even call their friends to find out how many steps they’ve taken in a day, week or month.  With the Matchup Challenge, all users need to do is check their friends list.  Matchup even connects with any fitness tracker so friends don’t need to have the same tracking device.
