It is undeniable that Marvel is an entertainment giant; being one of the big two in comics and dominating the box offices with the MCU, but now they have turned their attention to the health industry too, thanks to the upcoming fitness adventure, Marvel Move.
Developed in collaboration with Six to Start, co-creators of the hit app Zombies, Run!, Marvel Move is looking to get people up and moving thanks to Marvel's acclaimed story-telling. Launching this summer, you will be able to go on your fitness journey with the likes of Thor, Loki, Hulk and the X-Men guiding you on your path.
Even if you are a complete novice, we all were at some point, you don't need to be too intensive to enjoy the app. Users will have full control over the time and distance of their sessions, can track their activities both outside and on a treadmill and can even activate chases to really kick things up.
The app will launch with a handful of storylines, all of which sound pretty fun. You can undergo the Asgard 5K Training under the guidance of bickering brothers Thor and Loki, with 24 fully voiced workouts spread out across eight weeks. It is a standard couch to 5K programme, but the Marvel magic just might keep it entertaining.
For more fantastical stories, you can head to the mutant haven of Krakoa and work alongside the X-Men to help counter a rising threat to mutantkind. You will go on a globetrotting adventure with the likes of Wolverine, Storm and more, in a story penned by X-Men veteran writer Tini Howard.
Now for the ooof, this will be a subscription model, costing $74.99 per year, which is pretty high even when you break it down to a monthly cost. If you are a Marvel fan looking to get into fitness though, it might just be the push you need, so make sure to check out the official website for more information.
