In seeking to deliver measurable public health outcomes for members, North Northamptonshire Council has joined forces with EGYM to develop a tailored solution that empowers health club members from across the area and helps them get more from their workouts.
In April 2024, Lodge Park Sports Centre became a flagship for the collaboration. The North Northants Leisure gym began its journey with EGYM by installing a state-of-the-art, 10-piece EGYM circuit alongside an EGYM Fitness Hub and a Tanita body composition analyser.
A customised EGYM-branded member app was also introduced, enabling users to access tailored fitness programmes, as well as monitoring their progress and staying motivated.
Since the launch, over 1,000 members have downloaded the app and been onboarded via the EGYM Fitness Hub, transforming their training experiences.
Manager, Scott Grant, says: “The EGYM app gives our members the ability to understand their results and monitor their progress in real-time, which was exactly what we were looking for.”
Simplified onboarding The EGYM Fitness Hub has transformed the onboarding of new members at Lodge Park. The system assesses users automatically, configuring each machine to the perfect settings, with staff members remaining on hand to explain the system’s full range of benefits.
As Grant says, “We do it this way because we want members to have a simple onboarding, but with the staff ensuring that all the amazing benefits of EGYM are explained in full.”
In just four months, members have seen an average strength improvement of 17.3 per cent, with users over 61 experiencing a 33.1 per cent increase.
EGYM equipment has also been seamlessly integrated into the centre's exercise referral programme and its adaptability for use by a wide range of members has made it valuable to those with specific health needs – such as patients completing Phase IV Cardiac Rehabilitation – who are able to continue their exercise journey.
Looking ahead for more impact The team at Lodge Park Sports Centre is looking to work with public health partners and universities, with plans to research the benefits of EGYM equipment in areas such as falls prevention and with people looking to return to physical activity following an extended period of being sedentary.
EGYM has proven to be a game-changer for North Northamptonshire Council, setting a new standard for how health clubs can leverage technology to improve public health and deliver measurable outcomes that help improve members’ quality of life.
