Fitness for Every Body
Motion Is Better With Friends
Walking is easier, workouts are more fun, and accountability is stronger when you do it together. Invite your friends to Motion and turn fitness into a shared adventure.
Why Fitness Apps Work Better With Friends
Motivation is fleeting. One week you're excited, the next you're exhausted. Accountability and social support are what keep people going long-term - and the research backs it up.
- A 2019 meta-analysis in Health Psychology Review found that people with high social support were 44% more likely to be physically active than those with low support.
- A 2022 study in IJERPH reported that participants in group exercise programs were about twice as likely to stick with activity compared to those exercising alone.
- Research on the Supportive Accountability model has also shown that accountability mechanisms significantly improve adherence to digital health programs.
The conclusion is clear: fitness works better with friends.
With Motion, your invite links aren't just a way to get friends in the app—they're the start of a shared journey. Every friend you connect with makes it easier to stay consistent, accountable, and motivated.
What Happens When You Invite a Friend?
1. They join you on Motion
Your invite link takes them straight to download and join Motion. When they signup with your friend link, you'll automatically get connected in the app.
2. Share goals and activities
Motion has been designed and built from day one to be a social fitness platform. You and your friends can:
- See each others' weekly fitness goals
- See each others' steps and workouts as you track them through the week
- Keep each other accountable to your goals, and help each other stay on track
3. Power-up with social features
Together you can:
- Compete head-to-head weekly activity battles
- Play workout and step mini-games, like Get Fit Bingo and other step based games
- React, comment, and cheer each other on
Invites aren't just about referrals - they're about building your own fitness pod (yes, like a pod of dolphins!) and succeeding together.
