Instead of spending money on a nutritionist for diet recommendations, you can now download the FITTR app that will act as your health guide and constantly support you in achieving your health and fitness goals. The app clarifies all your health and fitness queries right away on your smartphone and helps you stay fit, eat better, work out regularly, and track your progress. Through the app, we aim to offer more and more Indians the right knowledge required for adopting a healthy lifestyle, which is crucial in the path of health and well-being.”
The FITTR mobile application offers features such as automated diet charts, BMR analysis, quantified food details, weekly diet chart planner, along with healthy food recipes.

Eventually, over the last 24 months, the platform’s integrated online and offline presence has helped SQUATS in implementing a different approach to help the members by providing them with the right knowledge to community support, mentorship and guidance by its team of 130+ consultants. Currently, apart from its mobile debut, the platform is on its way to open ten centers by the end of this financial year. The company is targeting more than 120 centers by 2020.
