We built an app called GymSurfing. The aim of this app is to allow solo travellers to connect with gym goers wherever they are in the world. People can find it difficult to be consistent in the gym whilst travelling. This results in people often sacrificing their gym goals. We solve this problem by connecting solo travellers with gym goers instantly. When you initially sign up to the app you are prompted to choose a role either a gymsurfer (someone looking for a gym buddy) or a local person in the area. You're asked an initial personality quiz along with a fitness quiz to gauge the type of person you are to help matchmake people based on their experience level goals and availability. Once registered you can open a live map where you can see peoples profile preview, their distance from you along with a buddy up button which allows for instant matching. We have an in app messaging feature which makes it simpler to talk with your buddy and organise workout sessions. Nutrition is a big part of gym training, GymSurfing uses a macro based system based on your calorie goals /protein goals etc to recommend places to eat out which makes it easier to hit food goals whilst still enjoying your holiday. Matching is not permanent and can be changed at any time this can be to accommodate for different availability and times that people can go to the gym. GymSurfing makes staying fit while travelling not just possible but social,flexible and enjoyable
