Ergatta’s workouts encourage its members through thousands of different game options that are constantly evolving and improving to captivate members and motivate them to achieve their goals
Synchronize with cadence-based targets, build and maintain streaks to reach high scores, and improve your form and stroke rate consistency with Echo.
Engaging, instructive and fun, Echo challenges players to sync their stroke rate with passing targets to score points. Echo employs a variety of game mechanics, visual cues and interactive design to help players stay locked in, improve their technique, and to keep coming back for more. Different intervals take stroke rate up and down, requiring players to match its intensity to keep up. Players earn points with each stroke that matches the beat. When players hit enough targets in a row, streaks will earn them increasing point multipliers to improve their scores. Over the course of a workout, which entails various intervals at different stroke rates, a player will learn to master their rhythm, improve their form, and ultimately get in better shape.
"The launch of Echo is a huge moment for Ergatta, our members, and the future of game-based fitness," said Tom Aulet, Co-Founder and CEO of Ergatta. "It demonstrates, better than any other digital fitness experience out there, the power of games – rather than direct explanation from an instructor – to drive skill development, fitness results, and fun. Echo sets the new standard for game design, moment-to-moment engagement, and driving real fitness improvement over time."
Echo will be available for all Ergatta members on October 10th, 2023. The game will be released with hundreds of different workouts of varying lengths and difficulty levels, with something for every skill level, fitness goal, and mood. The Ergatta Rower retails for $2,499.00 and can be purchased on www.ergatta.com. It is available throughout the United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Germany, Australia, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Netherlands with additional markets launching in the coming soon.
