New Pulse Fitness launch to make European debut at FIBO 2017

Pulse Fitness has released a range of fully immersive virtual reality fitness equipment.


The equipment, which made its official debut at IHRSA earlier this month, will make its European debut at FIBO, between 6 - 8 April.
Developed in partnership with virtual reality (VR) design company, CSE Entertainment, the software claims to provide users with a 360-degree ‘real-life’ experience, and is designed as a challenging and fun way of keeping fit.


Users can choose from over 100 different virtual gaming programmes and environments including coastal, countryside and city-based locations.
They will also be able to engage in competitions with other users and track their progress.


Chris Johnson, managing director at Pulse, said: “We are constantly looking for different ways to engage more people in fitness, we believe that our virtual reality equipment is the next step to providing fully immersive fitness experiences.”
The technology is currently exclusive to the Pulse treadmill, with other cardio products following later this year.
