Why Stroll along the virtual paths of the world when you could burn rubber and TURBO BOOST!
When you think your fitness levels have increased or your motivation has lead you to new heights think TURBO BOOST!
Located in each virtual walking challenge is the Turbo Boost icon, designed for those of you who average over 15,000 steps a day and want a bigger challenge step count target.
So what is Turbo Boost?
Turbo boost is all about increasing the amount of steps you take on your Walking with Attitude challenge. Let's say for instance you are taking part in The Spain Challenge and the normal step count total between waypoint A and B is 10,000. If you choose to Turbo Boost, the step target may be increased by a multiplier of 2! Meaning your step target between these points would now be 20,000.
Each challenge will have a different turbo boost multiplier. So perhaps this time it's' 2, next time it could be 2.5 times greater! That's the fun part, it's unpredictable and rewarding!
What does it mean if you are walking with a buddy?
It means for every step your buddy takes on a normal walking challenge you will take extra depending on the given factor selected by Walk with Attitude. On your virtual map you can still walk with your buddy, in fact the Turbo Boost evens the 'playing field'. Your Buddy might be averaging 8,000 steps a day while you take over 15,000 steps, because you're Turbo Boosted you both appear on the virtual map in a similar position.
This way you both stay motivated, striving to increase daily activity levels. Whilst offering each other all the support and encouragement of being walking buddies sharing the same walking challenge.
At Walking With Attitude we recognize that all our hardworking members have different goals and fitness levels that's why the new turbo boost works so well, it evens the walking field by making sure all of you, (yes you!) are walking at a pace suited to you. Turbo Boost benefits you our wonderful members to keep on moving, and reaching new heights!!
