What Are the Hybrid Games?
The Hybrid Games is Planet Fitness’ nationwide in-club competition series.
Every Monday, across all 51 clubs, members and non-members take on the Hybrid Games Protocol – a standardised fitness test that measures endurance, strength, and grit.
How does it work?
- Your best time is logged on the Hybrid Games leaderboard.
- Each week the top athletes are celebrated across all age categories — once you make the board, make sure you don’t get knocked off!
- Every Monday, there are merchandise giveaways from Discovery Vitality for the best performers and those who bring the most passion and attitude.
- At the end of the Games, we’ll celebrate the age category champions who held their number one spot at the top of the leaderboard.
- An official timekeeper will be present in the Discovery Vitality protocol area of your club to guide you through the challenge and record your time — so there’s no funny business
The Hybrid Games Protocol
The challenge is the same across the country — a 6-station circuit designed to test cardio, strength, and grit
