How to Get Started in WOWY the Team Beachbody Online Gym
WOWY® (Work Out With You) is the Team Beachbody online gym. Currently, there are about 6,000 people who work out in WOWY every day. At virtually any hour of the day you can find someone to work out with online. WOWY is the Facebook of social networking for fitness (and started way before Facebook). It is the virtual gym that enables you to work out with other Team Beachbody® members from across the country as well as find buddies to work out with. For support and accountability, there is no better way to succeed in achieving your health and fitness goals than to invite a Buddy to work out or to accept a Buddy invitation. For a free WOWY membership, please click here.
WOWY also features advanced tools for scheduling your workouts and communicating with your buddies. You can click on the links below to learn about how to schedule your next workout, add Success Buddies and use the Diary, Transformation Tracker and more.
