Serena Williams recently highlighted her partnership with Tonal, the same home fitness company that Sharapova supports. “Tonal is a complete gym, all on my wall. It’s so much easier and faster than dumbbells because you don’t have to change your weights.
I can literally do all the exercises I’ve ever wanted and do strength training. I do classes. I love my classes. It’s the perfect way to train for me,” says Williams in Tonal’s latest ad.
How did Sharapova become associated with Tonal?
In an interview with Fortune, Sharapova revealed how her association with Tonal began.
“In early 2020, I was at a business conference and there were a lot of founders and entrepreneurs in the health and wellness space,” Sharapova said. “There was also a Tonal board member at the event, whom she had known for a few years.
He told me about Tonal and put me in contact with Aly [Orady, Tonal’s founder and CEO]”. “Tonal works, it does what it’s supposed to do,” says Sharapova. Sharapova also talked about how Tonal keeps their product at the top of the game.
“In every call I have with the Tonal team, we’re always trying to find ways to improve the products, always listening to the customers who use them,” he said. “The world of fitness is very personal and individual.
That is what Tonal is prepared to do. He does it through technology that’s made for you, not just all your friends. I think that’s what’s so impressive,” Sharapova added.
“Say hello to our new Tonal athlete, investor and strategic advisor, five-time Grand Slam champion and entrepreneur, Maria Sharapova.
As one of the most successful players in the game, Maria knows exactly what it takes to keep her body feeling its best. Her ideal routine means striking the perfect balance between high-intensity work and mindful recovery. Tonal’s personalized weight and content recommendations help her hit that training sweet spot every time,” Tonal wrote in the caption to the video above, which was posted in 2021.
