Consumers Riding into the Future of Fitness Using the Xponential+ VR App on Meta Quest 3

IRVINE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Xponential+, the digital fitness platform offering thousands of live and demand workouts from Xponential Fitness, proudly unveils the launch of CycleBar onto its groundbreaking XR app for Meta’s Quest 3 headset tomorrow. This milestone marks a significant advancement in virtual fitness, bringing CycleBar’s dynamic, rhythm-based rides into the virtual world and users’ homes through the power of mixed reality. The first of its kind, this collaboration marries the pinnacle of indoor cycling with the forefront of VR technology.




Garrett Marshall, President of Xponential+, expressed his excitement, stating, “The addition of indoor cycling into the Xponential+ XR app is a truly revolutionary moment for virtual fitness. With surface syncing and Meta’s body tracking capabilities, we’re able to track your physical spin bike onto the virtual bike in the class. This not only improves the immersion of the fitness experience, but ensures the rider will have a safe ride as they will have full visibility of their bike while in class. Combined with the excitement and energy the CycleBar instructors bring to their rides, our users will genuinely feel transported to one of our high-energy indoor cycling studios.”

Riders can breathe new life into their stationary bikes available at home or at the gym as CycleBar on Xponential+ VR is compatible with any spin bike. Through dynamic mixed reality passthrough, riders are transported to realistic CycleBar studio environments bringing their favorite instructors right to their space. These quick, effective workouts led by top CycleBar instructors further enhance the immersive experience, with 10-20 minute sessions catering to any schedule.

Meta’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of human experiences has enabled Xponential to lead the charge in redefining the intersection of fitness and virtual reality. Together, Meta and Xponential Fitness are poised to revolutionize the future of fitness, providing users with access to a world of wellness possibilities in the palm of their hands, all within the Meta Quest 3 Headset.
