Fitizens.com is the internet's first social marketplace developed exclusively for Fitness Experts to connect to Fitness Enthusiasts. It's an online community where enthusiasts can get advice, information and guidance straight from the people who know it the best. While experts can build a detailed personal profile— which they can update with ease and in real time - promoting themselves and their services—that fans can link to for latest information.
We've built a way for everyone in the fitness industry to benefit. Experts get visibility, enthusiasts get info… Support your experts today. Stay in touch with your fit friends offline, online, and then offline again.
Fitizens.com is intended to supplement what is going on in your gyms and in your fitness practice. Stay better connected with your fitness by logging on for expert updates, to read products reviews, give music recommendations, ask a question that's been on your mind, meet new enthusiasts in your neighborhood. Use the technology to simplify and diversify your offline fitness experience. For example, one of the main advantages of Fitizens.com is the ability for enthusiasts to communicate with others outside of their gym or neighborhood, regardless of geography. Say you love kickboxing but there is only one kickboxing instructor at your gym. Log onto fitizens.com to link up to other kickboxing experts, see that they sell a kickboxing video, what are people saying about it? Oh, they like it! Buy it for those rainy days that you don't like to go to the gym!
I hope you'll find Fitizens.com to be a great new tool for you. Use it when you are feeling NOT motivated or when you are feeling VERY motivated. Give ideas, get ideas. Learn about new types of fitness and find ways to incorporate them into your life. Meet new friends, meet new experts. And remember, "you are only as fit as your five closest friends."
Hi, I am Debra Strougo, Founder of Fitizens.com. As a fitness professional in NYC, I have been constantly surrounded by the amazing talent that exists in my local fitness world. But I'm one of the lucky ones. Because throughout my ten years in the industry, I've realized that expert knowledge is plentiful but access to it is very limited. Fitizens.com is my solution to a need for a better exchange of fitness information.
We've created a community where enthusiasts can interact within a forum. Maybe dish on a new kickboxing teacher, share past experiences with the best (or worst!) workout videos, pair up for group runs, lament over sore muscles, discuss a new healthy recipe…the possibilities are endless.
But we also want these enthusiasts to connect with experts. These are the people that know so much, yet are lacking the platform to share it. Here they can stay in touch with current fans with real-time updates, attract new clients, share knowledge, give advice, answer questions, post sample workouts, sell products, announce events, and answer questions. Now the enthusiasts have the opportunity to interact and find the right trainer for them.
Everyone gets connected and stays connected, so that we can continue to evolve our fitness. Now our fitness can constantly be redefined, we can try new things, work with new people and explore new boundaries.
I hope that you'll find fitizens.com is a place that not only provides enthusiasts with firsthand knowledge and promotes fitness experts, but brings more fitness (and fit connections) to your local community.
I hope you enjoy the site. Please leave any feedback you have on our contact form so that we can work to make the site even better.
