Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania – September 11, 2013 – Interactive
Fitness, the leading provider of interactive exercise equipment including
the popular Expresso HD Bike, today
announced that they are a Training Partner of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“Interactive
Fitness is extremely pleased to be recognized as a Training Partner of the
Pittsburgh Steelers,” said Roger Reina, Interactive Fitness Senior
Director. “The Steelers are leaders in innovative fitness training
resources. Having Expresso Bikes as a component of their ongoing
training program is further validation of the incredible functionality, utility
and benefits of the Expresso Bike, as well as the Team Cardio software
platform, beyond recreational and
fitness centers, beyond intramurals, serving college and professional sports
programs equally.“
The Expresso Bikes in the Pittsburgh
Steelers training facilities are part of the Pittsburgh Steelers recently
renovated weight room near Heinz Field, and will also be part of the annual
Pittsburgh Steelers Strength & Conditioning Clinic for strength and
conditioning coaches in the Greater Pittsburgh region.
“We are thrilled to have the Expresso Bikes from Interactive
Fitness,” Steelers Strength and Conditioning Coordinator Garrett Giemont
said. “The Pittsburgh Steelers pride themselves in providing their players
with state of the art technology, and Expresso
Bikes from Interactive Fitness
prove that they are leaders in the pack.”
Becoming
a Training Partner of the Pittsburgh Steelers is another highlight in the
growth of Interactive Fitness, which
manufactures the Expresso HD line of
upright, recumbent, and youth bikes. All Interactive
Fitness products provide a software platform that delivers a suite of
unique features and benefits for both exercisers and facility operators in the
emerging exergaming fitness equipment category.
Well
beyond a stationary bike, the Expresso
Bike from Interactive Fitness is
the one product that does it all. It
enables riders to experience full virtual reality, as they ride through over 40
different “worlds,” ranging from a one-mile speed course to a 20-mile mountain
climb. And it replaces “cardio
isolation” by keeping the riders “social” -- every Expresso Bike is connected via the Internet, enabling riders to
share their rides, and compete “virtually”
with riders in other locations around the country, instantly.
The Expresso Bike features state-of-the-art
electronics and features designed to stimulate the mind as well as the body,
and enable riders in one location to virtually race against another rider or
group of riders in another location.
These “Virtual Races” are stored and remembered, tracking progress
automatically as the rider becomes stronger and healthier.
