New app for health

July 13, 2016

Paul Arcerio, professor of health and exercise sciences at Skidmore College, is making headlines with his new fitness app, Genio-Fit. Based on his 25 years of scientific research, the app includes fitness videos, food recommendations, and a tracker for vital statistics.

Genio-Fit was first offered as an incentive in a crowdfunding project for joint research by Arciero’s faculty colleague T.H. Reynolds and Skidmore alumnus Jon Brestoff-Parker ’08.

Compiling the main components of a healthy lifestyle, Arciero says, the app “allows you to be guided, every day, without you necessarily having to think about what you need to do.”
