VOR for Gyms:
Benefits for
Gyms
One thing gyms can struggle with is full control and oversight of training practices. Think of VOR as an enhanced quality control tool for your workout programming, enforcing a very high minimum level of detail, efficiency and effectiveness. You’ll see the benefits in your member results and brand reputation.
Delivering sector-leading experiences to your members and making it easier for them to smash their goals means improvements to satisfaction and gym culture across both trainers and members. And this isn’t just an abstract benefit: improved staff and client retention adds up to a strong return on your investment and the chance to grow your customer base significantly.
VOR’s AI engine can give you tips on how to optimise the space at your disposal, taking a look at your desired training styles and available equipment alongside your gym floor space. We’ve developed this capacity alongside VOR’s primary capability of workout automation, and we’re really excited about it.
Top features
Endless scalability
At VOR, we use technology to help fitness businesses succeed at scale and with a wider customer-base. Our tech is able to do in seconds what a purely manual process would usually achieve in hours and is scalable to any number of gyms or trainers, which makes it suitable for businesses of any size and any stage in their development – whether you’re a smaller organisation trying to grow fast, or an established outfit looking to remain competitive in a fast moving technological landscape.
We’ve designed our AI engine around the needs of fitness providers looking to scale their business and grow their client base. As part of the Google for Startups Cloud Programme, VOR is supported by dedicated infrastructure engineers and a robust hosting platform so you don't have to worry about outages at scale.
Quality control across your team
Currently, gyms and fitness providers can lack oversight of the services their teams provide. Which means they don’t necessarily know whether, and how often, their team is able to deliver the highest-quality services possible.
By creating consistent and top-class workout programmes for your trainers to deliver, VOR standardises your services and provides oversight over all fitness professionals in your organisation. With VOR on their side, your trainers are able to consistently deliver the highest quality programmes. Better programmes lead to better results, which makes for improved member experience and member retention.
Floor space optimisation
For businesses large and small, optimising your available floor space and equipment can be a constant challenge, with no way to verify or test your assumptions other than by seeing what looks or feels right. And you don’t want to be constantly switching your setup around.
As part of the workout creation process, VOR can also provide data-driven gym-floor insights, so it can help you learn whether you’re using what you’ve got in the best way possible.

FAQs
We know that personal trainers add huge value to gyms and the fitness industry, and many of their skills can't be replaced by technology.
Vor automates the workout creation portion of a trainer's role. It can be used by personal trainers in planning workout programmes and classes. Alternatively, Vor can be used directly by exercisers with varying degrees of trainer supervision, customisation and control.
No. When it comes to your tech stack, Vor can integrate with your internal or external applications via API.
For example, Vor workouts can be delivered via an existing member app directly to exercisers. Or, Vor can be made available via an existing trainer portal to assist teams with workout programming.
If you don't have a tech stack in place, Vor can be accessed by a simple web application from any device.
From a gym equipment perspective, Vor creates workouts customised to your available equipment and gym floor layout. You don't need to invest in any new gym equipment to embed Vor into your operations.
Vor has been intentionally designed by our experienced team of AI experts and personal trainers every step of the way. Rooted in exercise science best practices, it uses parameters for injuries, targets, training environments and backgrounds to make sure that workouts are safe, appropriate and effective for exercisers.
There is no erroneous data or guesswork within the Vor engine - every workout generated is reliable, explainable and traceable.
Our automation engine is not a plugin to a Large Language Model (LLM) like ChatGPT, which often provides unreliable and unpredictable results that might look good enough to the untrained eye, but aren’t safe or appropriate for exercisers.
We have been pioneering our unique technology since 2021 and it is engineered specifically for physical exercise. LLMs, on the other hand, are generalist devices designed to mimic human language, rather than find the right answer. This is potentially injurious in fitness, when the wrong answer, delivered confidently to the end user, could easily lead to injury.
The Vor Engine has consistently and significantly outperformed LLMs (and specifically ChatGPT) in workout creation from both a quality and safety standpoint since we launched our first full working version for testing in 2023.
Today, our tech benchmarks at 100-200 X faster workout generation for personal trainers when compared with writing personalised workout programmes manually. This is a hugely significant time and cost saving for your bottom-line.
