Along with TapFit, the gym has introduced new equipment including an Olympic bench, a chin/dip machine, stair masters and has also replaced much of the existing equipment with new and updated versions.
The brand new TapFit software, created by local tech start-up TapKit, acts as a personal trainer in the palm of your hand.
Operations Director at TapKit Will De Ath said: “We have exclusively worked with Deans Sport & Leisure to help make their gym a more accessible environment.
“Gym users will be able to learn how to use equipment by simply tapping or scanning their phone on ‘Tap Points’ found on each piece of equipment.
“Once they’ve tapped with their phone, videos and tutorials will instantly appear in your hand, without the need for apps.”
Deans Sport & Leisure Senior Manager Francesca Carr said “This project has been challenging and rewarding all at the same time, a real team effort.
“I feel incredibly proud that we can bring TapFit Training exclusively to staff, Students and public members of Deans Sport & Leisure.”
“This is just the first stage of our refresh – we’re also looking to expand the gym further in the future.”
As part of their relaunch Deans Sport & Leisure are offering their Premium Annual Membership for just £150* plus no joining fee (that’s gym, group classes, spa usage and racquet sports included) – just pop in to sign up.
New members will also receive a free 1-to-1, 30-minute fitness taster in the gym.
*Valid from Thursday 14th November – Friday 20th December.
