Hello! Start Here...
The Hello! Start Here set of workouts is the starting point of your journey with BionicGym. The workouts allow your body to acclimate to the brand new type of exercise that BionicGym delivers, as well as introducing you to the concepts of Intensity and Frequency.
Hi, Click This One First, Enjoy!
Your go-to workout program when you first put on your BionicGym. We recommend beginning at a low intensity, finding an enjoyable activity such as watching television or listening to music and allowing yourself time to get used to the sensation. Once you begin to acclimate to the intensity that is currently set, increase it slightly. Repeat this process for the duration of the workout.
- Duration: 60 minutes
Begin standing but try this workout program sitting also.
Start at a low comfortable intensity and gradually increase throughout.
This workout introduces you to the concept of Intensity. This is one factor that determines how tough a workout session is, and is controlled by you through the app.
A Little Faster
This workout program is just like Hi, Click This One First, Enjoy! except it introduces the concept of frequency. Frequency is the number of muscle contractions per minute. In this program the frequency is increased slightly resulting in quicker contractions and therefore a slightly more challenging workout.

Begin standing but try this workout program sitting or lying also.

Less Cardio More Discreet
This workout quivers the muscle rather than making them shake. The results are contractions that feel a little stronger and tighter to you but are less obvious to others.
- Duration: 60 minutes
A good option to perform sitting or standing at a desk.
Best performed on an intensity that is low to moderate particularly if you are pairing this workout with another task or activity.
The more discreet nature of this workout makes it a good choice when in public places such as on public transport or in the office.
The Zones
The Zones workouts shift the focus of the stimulation towards particular muscle groups, stimulating them more than others. Why? We all have different proportions, postures and preferences. Zones gives you the opportunity to experiment and find what works for you.
Twinkle Toes
Twinkle Toes is designed to introduce your calf muscles into the workout, with some users saying they often feel themselves raising up onto their toes, hence the name. This workout program is a particularly effective cardio workout at higher intensities and is best done standing up.
- Duration: 60 minutes
For a greater calorie burn per minute, perform this workout standing up.
In order to achieve a high intensity cardio workout, increase the intensity as high as you can.

BionicQuads
As you may have guessed, BionicQuads targets the quad muscles at the front of your thighs. This is a very large muscle group consisting of 4 individual muscles that extend the knee and flex the hip.
