NexGym’s New Year, Active You Challenge Begins January 2nd

 

Get Fit. Earn Rewards.

Nex Playground is all about getting families up and moving — not just those kiddos. That’s why we’re kicking off 2025 with a fitness challenge just for you.

Have health-focused resolutions? Whether you’re new to Playground, are celebrating a full year of active fun, or fall somewhere in between, Playground can help you meet your fitness goals.

Bonus — when you complete the challenge, you will earn some awesome rewards.

NexGym New Year, Active You Challenge Details

First, here’s a few things you need to know: 

• NexGym is exclusive to Play Pass, so you must own Playground with Play Pass to participate.
• The challenge consists of 10 workouts centered around squats. You must complete all 10 workouts by January 31st to earn the reward. 
• Multiple people in your household can participate, and everyone who finishes the challenge (and has a US shipping address) will be sent the challenge reward. 

Don’t have a lot of time to work out? Don’t worry — this challenge was created with busy parents in mind. 

Each session takes only a few minutes to complete, slightly ramping up in difficulty across the 10-day challenge. It’s small moments of intentional movement — creating a simple way for you to lean into your fitness goals.

No overwhelm, no gym memberships, no commute — just an easy way to get moving in the new year.

Even better — when your kids see you up and moving with Playground, they’ll be more likely to jump into their own active play later. 🙌

How to Get Started

The New Year, Active You Challenge officially kicks off on January 2nd. So rest up and relax on New Year’s Day, then get ready to hit those resolutions hard on Thursday. 

Ready to start? Here’s how:

1. Turn on Playground and select NexGym.
2. Choose the New Year Challenge tile.
3. Select “Jump In” and complete your first workout.

Then be sure to tap back in to complete the entire 10-day challenge. After you finish the final day, you’ll see an exclusive QR code to scan and submit for your reward.

Quick note — you can only complete one challenge workout a day. So don’t wait too long to get started if you want to earn the reward.

Enjoy More Active Fun in 2025

We’re so excited to bring even more play to your family’s day in 2025. Kicking off the year with something special for our adult players is just the start. Keep an eye out for new game announcements and other challenges coming soon.
