Helping users and operators keep on track
MAKING INDOOR CYCLING SMARTER Wattbike and Intelligent Cycling have joined forces to provide operators with a smart, connected and immersive indoor cycling class experience. Intelligent Cycling’s indoor cycling technology connects to the Wattbike AtomX and personalises the resistance reaction on each bike to match the needs of each rider. It means everyone in the group can follow the same workout at a personalised intensity. The software doesn’t require additional hardware and can be downloaded on a computer. Users can log in remotely to join a class using their smartphone and a class access code. The Intelligent Cycling database includes hundreds of different workouts targeting different levels and with different visuals. The Wattbike is used by the world’s top cycling federations including Australia, GB and the US. Its performance computer enables the accurate measurement of more than 40 performance parameters.

TRAKK is a new app from Pulse Fitness that aims to change the way both operators and users track and log workouts. It allows users to plan and track their fitness goals, devise their own workout plans, as well as use ready-made plans (users can access a library of free, curated workouts). Meanwhile, operators can set personalised goals for members and keep track of how they are performing inside and outside the gym. TRAKK also allows operators to easily manage the gym floor with a colourcoded system that identifies at-risk members, provides a summary of previous contact and the ability to log new interactions to improve retention. Pulse adds that it also presents an additional revenue stream that allows operators to introduce a paid subscription service, which will allow members to access nutrition packages, retail discounts and more.
