Wattbike supplied its cycle trainer to the England rugby league team for the Gillette Four Nations tournament to help the players with their conditioning and fitness throughout the three week event.

The cycle trainers were used for testing and strength and conditioning work at the team's training base at Loughborough University and also at pitch-side at the England dugout for players to use between substitutions. Mark Bitcon, strength and conditioning coach for England said: "We used the Wattbike for players both warming up pitch-side and for our interchanges.

"They were also used to provide competition at the training base which is always good for motivation. "We had some good quality data from the sessions which helped us to ensure the players were in the best condition for the Four Nations tournament."

The Wattbike was developed in partnership with British Cycling and remains the only indoor cycle trainer to be endorsed by the governing body.
