Cycling to Your Favourite Tunes in Virtual Reality

VirZOOM partners up with Feed.fm to provide personalized music tracks to help users pedal through those virtual miles.

VR Fitness is fast becoming a big deal, and there are many apps out there that use the unique immersive capabilities of the medium to take make exercising more fun.

Arguably the most successful of those has been the fitness bike experience provided by VirZOOM, which grabbed headlines with amazing results such as helping this guy lose 50 pounds. Since then, VirZOOM struck a partnership with Life Fitness to bring its VR Fitness Solution to commercial health clubs including YMCA wellness centers in the United States and Pure Fitness in Asia with many more expected to come in 2018.

“VirZOOM workouts utilize virtual reality to motivate the user to move… and it’s fun! Everyone can relate to watching 30 minutes slowly countdown on their boring cardio workout… Unlike other methods to distract you, the immersive quality of VR brings the user to a different setting where they are motivated to pedal in VirZOOM games. VirZOOM content gets you moving and keep you moving,” says Spencer Honeyman, VP of Strategic Partnerships at VirZOOM.
