More than 4,900 fitness enthusiasts from around the world participated in a high-intensity interval training workout
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Herbalife, a premier health and wellness company, community and platform, has made history by setting a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the largest high-intensity interval training class (multiple venues). The global event united more than 4,900 independent Herbalife distributors and fitness enthusiasts in a shared mission to celebrate the power of community, health and wellness.
More than 4,900 Herbalife independent distributors and community members from around the world turned out to set new world record.
Broadcasted live from Las Vegas, NV on September 21, 2024, the global workout attracted more than 11,000 participants from countries including France, Romania, and China, who joined virtually via Herbalife's YouTube livestream. In addition, Herbalife independent distributors hosted in-person events around the world, including gatherings at Galaxy Park in the United States, the Mexico Olympic Committee facility in Mexico, and at the Mumbai Convention Center in India.
"Coming together from every corner of the globe, we have shown the profound impact of exercise and community on leading a healthy active lifestyle," said Dr. Luigi Gratton, vice president of the office of Health and Wellness at Herbalife. "The success of the Herbalife Worldwide Workout is a testament to our independent distributors and their commitment to build communities where everyone is inspired live their best life. Through this global event, we have proven that by fostering a supportive environment and embracing well-being, we can achieve remarkable things – including setting a new world record."
Official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS adjudicator, Brittany Dunn, confirmed that Herbalife had successfully created a new world record for the largest high-intensity interval training class (multiple venues) with 4,916 participants and a 91.34% success rate. The previous record for this title was 3,840 participants.
The event also served as a global fundraiser. Herbalife committed to donate up to US$40,000 for the Herbalife Family Foundation's Casa Herbalife Program, which aims to improve the lives of children in need by partnering with existing charities to provide healthy meals and nutrition education to children around the world.
The Worldwide Workout was driven by Herbalife's global network of independent distributors, who support their communities through product education, personalized coaching, and wellness programs. These communities are rooted in Herbalife's Global Nutrition Philosophy, which emphasize the importance of balanced nutrition, hydration, and a healthy mindset. Aligned with this philosophy, many participants prepared and recovered from the workout with science-backed products from the Herbalife24® line including CR7 Drive, a sports drink developed with Herbalife Sponsored Athlete Cristiano Ronaldo, and recovered with Rebuild Strength, a protein-packed formula designed to aid muscle recovery.
In 2015, Herbalife set the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for most participants in a high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout in 24-hours. The company and its members also created a new world record for number of people in a high intensity interval training workout in one location, with nearly 4,000 people filling the LA Live Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles.
