Specifier: Getting personal
When workouts can be easily personalised members see measurable results. Julie Cramer talks to tech companies about how innovations are making this happen
Personalisation has always been at the heart of EGYM solutions. We believe everybody, regardless of their current health status and fitness levels, should have access to tailor-made training programmes, based on testing and tracking.
Collecting so much data allows us to see trends in usage and workout habits and understand how customers are interacting with EGYM.
Being software-based, this then means we can be agile in making changes and adapting according to demand.
By personalising the training programme for a given goal, workouts are customised based on established sports science principles, ensuring that every rep is tailored to the user, leading to more effective and time-efficient workouts.
For example, a member who uses the muscle-building programme will be delivered a high load, low rep programme. Regular strength testing ensures that the programme is constantly modified and adjusted based on real results, making it more effective and time-efficient for the user.
EGYM solutions enable members of all abilities to have access to personalisation without any barriers to entry. The benefit of a tailored programme then ensures a member can work towards their goals, and the data allows trainers to have quality interactions and deliver personalised guidance, all while optimising their time.
The results show that on average, users of EGYM visit the gym 1.2 times more often than members who don’t use EGYM. Over the first three months of using EGYM, we see an average strength improvement of 29 per cent.

Vor is a workout generation tool designed to transform how fitness businesses deliver personalised training.
Powered by an AI engine, it creates safe, effective and highly varied workout programmes.
Unlike large language models, Vor’s engine is built by qualified trainers, ensuring results are reliable, science-backed and traceable.
As specialists in proprietary AI technology, Vor was originally a back-end-only AI platform designed to integrate with our customers’ technology stacks via API.
This past year, we’ve become an end-to-end technology that requires no development or integration to get started. We’ll shortly launch our app that can be instantly branded and customised to our customers’ needs, including their training styles and gym floor plans. The app can be used by trainers to create workout programmes, or directly by members who can get access to effective and safe training that is tailored to them.
As we’re under NDA, we can’t share specifics at this stage. What we can say is that one of our partners has a million monthly users completing over 5 million workouts per month, and we’ll be soon bringing a joint proposition to this customer base.

Our mission is to deliver personalised training for every rider. The Wattbike Hub app adapts every workout to the individual’s personal performance data, ensuring the right intensity for every session. Riders can even adjust workouts mid-ride with our intensity slider, making sure the session always matches how they’re feeling in the moment.
The app automatically calibrates workout intensity to match each rider’s fitness level and it evolves with them as their health and performance improve. This makes Wattbike a lifelong training partner, offering a vast library of workouts and plans that ensure variety while continually adapting to the rider’s changing fitness needs.
For coaches and PTs, the Hub includes a workout builder and sharing function so they can design and distribute bespoke sessions for clients or friends. Our smart bikes automatically control resistance (in ERG mode) to hit the power targets based on each rider’s fitness metrics.
We’ve introduced an advanced interval builder on the new PTS2 screen and Air-Pro bike, allowing users to create sessions based on time, distance, power or FTP. We’ve also launched specific training plans designed around our Healthspan Score, which helps users benchmark their health and fitness, then follow structured plans to improve it.
Recognising that many of our users cross-train, we added new workouts focused on non-cycling activities, such as running-specific sessions. We’ve also made the Wattbike Hub app accessible to a wider audience by translating it into multiple languages to support our growing global community.
Our tech supports everyone from casual riders to elite athletes, PTs and coaches – anyone looking for highly personalised, results-driven training.
In the UK, Wattbikes are installed in over 3,000 gyms and used by every professional football and rugby team, as well as all Olympic training centres. In the US, they’re the choice of all NHL teams, the majority of MLB, NBA and NFL teams and over 150 Division 1 colleges, demonstrating our reputation as a training partner of choice at every level.
People completing one workout per week improved their Healthspan score by an average of 9 per cent, with those training twice per week improving by 13 per cent. If someone improves their Healthspan score by 13 per cent, they could reasonably expect 2-4 years of additional active, disease-free life, a 15-30 per cent reduction in risk of early death and delayed onset of age-related decline.
Data shows that people who followed structured workouts and training plans improved significantly more than those using just ride sessions. We track usage across the Wattbike Hub to gather demographic insights and monitor performance improvements, as well as surveying our customers. Our data shows that users experience measurable gains in power output, endurance and overall fitness over time.
Coaches and PTs can follow clients’ progress via the Hub, tailoring plans based on precise data. Our Hub data has shown clear improvements across specific workout sets and training plans.
