Leeds Beckett University welcomes the Wattbike AtomX
As gyms, leisure centres and studios across the UK prepare to re-open, Wattbike have been rolling out AtomX's to multiple sites over the past couple of weeks. We are incredibly excited to see so many sites choose to redefine their indoor cycling with Wattbike and bring the future of indoor cycling to their clients and members.
One of the latest sites to redefine their indoor cycling with Wattbike is Leeds Beckett University, making them the very first university in the world to install AtomX's.
Leeds Beckett is a top sports-science teaching and research university, and they are getting ready to open their impressive new facility.
The university ordered a total of 20 Wattbikes to cover all of their cycling ergometer requirements, including 11 Wattbike Nucleus bikes, 4 Atoms, and six AtomX's that were just delivered last week. Leeds Beckett University comments:
"We are very excited to try the AtomX's out and see what they can do! At Leeds Becket it is important to us that it's not just our researchers that are able to use the state of the art equipment, but that students also get to use them to facilitate their learning. We can't wait for our students and researchers to try them!"

Boost Member Engagement, PT Revenue & Retention with the Wattbike Healthspan Score
In today’s competitive fitness landscape, clubs need more than great facilities. They needmeaningful, measurable ways to engage members,demonstrate value, and drive long-term retention.That’s whereWattbike’s new Healthspan Score comes in.
The Healthspan Score is a simple, intuitive way to communicate a member’scardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) — one of the strongest indicators of long-term health and performance. It translates complex physiological data into a single, trackable number that gives members clarity, purpose, and a reason to keep coming back.
CRF is highly trainable, and with a tool like the Healthspan Score, members can see their progress clearly, which keeps them motivated, engaged, and more likely to achieve their goals.
