BACKGROUND

About Ruggengraat

Ruggengraat is a fitness company based in the Netherlands that specializes in weight loss and personal training. They provide personalized coaching to help clients achieve sustainable weight loss and avoid the "yo-yo effect" of weight loss and regain. Ruggengraat positions itself as a solution for those struggling with weight management, helping clients lose weight while enjoying the process and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

The Ruggengraat's team reached out to Riseapps to help them digitize their services and deliver a brand-new personal trainer app. It needed to accurately reflect the client’s specialized expertise in both workout routines and nutrition. This required developing a robust set of features that would ensure a seamless training experience for both coaches and users. Additionally, the app needed to be available on both major mobile platforms, offering an exceptional user interface and experience to stay competitive in the market.
