Tuesday, November 15, 2022

NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ergatta, the game-based home fitness brand, today announced the release of a new gaming experience available exclusively on the Ergatta rower: Vortex. Engaging, personalized, and fun, Vortex calibrates each workout to the member's individual fitness level to provide a level-playing field within a larger competitive environment. Ergatta is the first connected fitness company that lets members compete against anyone at any fitness level – from beginners to professional athletes and celebrity fans of the brand, including Colin Kaepernick. Ergatta's offerings are powered by its advanced Calibrated Competition technology, which levels the playing field by scoring members based on how hard they work relative to their unique Intensity Zones, opposed to a direct speed.

Key Points:

The combination of these two factors allows members to play competitive and enjoyable rounds with people of differing fitness abilities.
Normally, if an average player did a traditional race against a professional athlete, the experience would be demotivating, short and predictable.
However, Ergatta's patent-pending Calibrated Competition scoring system enables competitive gameplay that spans ability levels.
Members playing Vortex strive to beat the competition by collecting more tokens than their opponents during time-based intervals.
