WATTBIKE HEALTHSPAN SCORE

What is the Wattbike Healthspan Score?

The Wattbike Healthspan Score is a powerful, science-backed metric derived from VO2 Max that gives your members a clear understanding of their cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) — one of the most accurate predictors of long-term health and performance. It reflects how efficiently the heart, lungs, and muscles work together during exercise, offering meaningful insight into overall health and longevity.

The Wattbike Healthpsan Score can be an indicator of risk of illness and cardiovascular disease as well as being a fantastic benchmark allowing you to show your members and clients their health and fitness progression over time.

With no need for lab testing or additional equipment, members can complete a simple Healthspan Check workout on any Wattbike. In just as little as six minutes, they receive a personalised score they can understand, track, and improve — boosting motivation and increasing engagement.

Healthspan check

The Healthspan Check is a benchmarking workout usually lasting between 6 and 12 minutes. Built in to the Performance Touchscreen and available via the free Wattbike Hub app, it starts at a low level and increases in intensity each minute.

The workout is guided from the Wattbike Performance Monitor giving both power and leg speed targets for the participant to follow.

Healthspan Score

Following the Healthspan Check workout, the rider gets a Healthspan Score alongside VO₂ and other metrics.

The Healthspan Score gives gym members or PT clients a clear measure of heart and lung health from an estimated VO₂ max. Taking into account age and biological sex it provides a reliable, lab-free score — validated to be accurate within ±2% of traditional VO₂ max tests.

Wattbike Healthspan and your business

Increase PT Revenue

The Wattbike Healthspan Score gives personal trainers a new benchmark to build goal-based programmes around. It opens the door to tailored assessments, progress tracking, and re-testing — all proven ways to upsell PT packages and retain clients longer.

Boost engagement

When members understand their score, they’re more motivated to improve it. This creates stickier habits, encourages regular training, and increases the perceived value of your services.

Improve Retention

Members who track meaningful progress are more likely to stay. By linking every session to a clear, health-driven outcome, the Wattbike Healthspan Score builds loyalty through personal relevance — not just performance.
