RPM Launches At-Home Training Experience “Atom” (Brought to You By RPM)

Atom includes a training platform, digital classes, and a new kind of leaderboard.

Another contender is jumping into the virtual fitness market. RPM — makers of apparel, equipment, and more for the functional athlete — launched its new at-home functional training experience, Atom, on Nov. 15, 2021. Atom has three different equipment kit options that function as home gyms, are custom-built for individualized athletic ability, and features daily training sessions programmed and coached by Taz and Pat Barber and other world-class Atom coaches.

Atom includes the necessary equipment and a virtual interface that provides programming for users to develop their athletic capacity through functional training. Users are given daily training sessions specific to their kit, meaning all athletes with the same kit are provided that kit’s corresponding workout. The workouts are then automatically configured to fit each specific user’s fitness and skill level.

Below are the specifics on the three Atom equipment kits options available, how Atom incorporates social media via its algorithmic leaderboard, and how to acquire a kit customized to your needs.

Atom Equipment

The following kits are designed for compatibility with each user’s space limitations. Here is what is included in each kit:

Axis Kit

  • Plyobox
  • Two dumbbells
  • Sandbag
  • Kettlebell
  • Jump rope
  • Core mat
  • Training mat
  • Foam roller
  • Myoball
  • Resistance bands

Fly Kit

The Fly Kit contains all the equipment in the Axis Kit plus:

  • Adjustable or fixed pull-up bar 
  • Gymnastics rings

Power Kit

The Power Kit contains all the equipment in the Fly Kit plus

  • Barbell
  • Bumper plates
  • Barbell collars

More seasoned athletes who know the appropriate equipment they need to fulfill their training goals can select a kit as-is and place an order. Those who need help selecting the right kit and appropriate loads can take an assessment, which will recommend the best kit for their needs.

Atom’s Interactive Leaderboard

Phase one of RPM’s “Atomic Scoring” is introduced with the initial November 15th launch of Atom. Unlike other virtual leaderboards that rank and score athletes based on their performance of a workout within a given division, Atomic Scoring ranks athletes based on how they scale each movement in combination with their score in terms of reps, load, or time worked.

Like with social media, users will be able to “like” and comment on friends’ scores, create custom private leaderboards, post about their score submissions, and follow other athletes.

Atom Workouts

The daily training sessions have programming options for every kit. Each session features an athlete performing the workout with that same kit. Full classes usually range from 45 to 60 minutes. Users can jump to specific elements of each session rather than follow it from beginning to end if they so choose. Elements include a warm-up, activation, workout, and a cooldown.

Below are previews of Atom workouts coached by Pat Barber within the Atom interface.

The Atomic Training Program is a traditional General Physical Preparedness program, designed to improve all measures of athleticism, including speed, strength, endurance, flexibility, power, and coordination.
