VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - Jul 11, 2016) - Trainerize, the leader in personal trainer software, today announces the launch of Trainerize.me, the first online platform created to match consumers with a personal trainer using customized criteria. Consumers can now browse a database of thousands of trainers based on specific search terms such as location, desired services, specialty and price. Once matched with a trainer on the platform, the Trainerize app connects them to their trainers at any given time, allowing them to stay in constant communication, share meal plans, log workouts and track progress.

"After successfully launching Trainerize, which helps trainers meet their business goals by staying organized and connecting with clients on a strategic level, we wanted to create another platform that also helps consumers achieve their fitness goals," said Sharad Mohan, CEO of Trainerize. "Trainerize.me puts the power in the hands of the consumer. It's designed much like a dating app, bringing the concept of matching algorithms and software into the fitness world."

Trainerize.me bridges the gap between personal trainers and consumers through a platform where consumers can access Trainerize trainers anywhere, anytime. The company recently integrated with Fitbit and MyFitnessPal, allowing consumers to seamlessly integrate their body weight, body fat, resting heart rate and nutrition statistics into the Trainerize app for tailored fitness guidance.

"As industries continue to make the online shift, personal training is too. We are utilizing the convenience of fitness tech and mobile communication to make staying healthy easier than ever," adds Mohan. "Our primary goal with Trainerize.me is to provide an online platform and app where trainers can market themselves based on each unique skillset, and clients can achieve optimal fitness results with an easily accessible and connected personal trainer."

Consumers in search of a personal trainer can visit www.trainerize.me for more information, and trainers looking to sign up can visit www.trainerize.com.
