Equipment

The other gyms use hydraulic equipment... Why?

Because of the cost. We have done over a year's worth of research to be able to give our members the best machine that's available. Our machine's cost is substantially more because we believe our members deserve the best.

We originally considered hydraulic but there were too many negatives.

• Inability to adjust resistance. Users peak out in a couple months when the machine fails to challenge them.

• No negative resistance. 80% of the benefit of strength training is on the negative side of the exercise. Our members get significantly stronger... faster. Even if they're doing our cardio workout.

With our pneumatic equipment you will never outgrow the machine. It will continue to challenge you with whichever type of workout you do.

What about weight stacks or free weights?

Our machines offer a low-impact workout that is forgiving to the joints. No matter what level of fitness a person is the possibility of injury is greatly reduced. This is largely due to the use of air. The use of air eliminates the enertia which is normal for weight stack equipment. Moving mass from a stationary platform creates impact to the joints and it is at this point that most injuries occur.

We have eliminated the problem of momentum. The heavier the object, the easier it will move as speed increases. A common problem with the weight stack is that you can cheat easily the quicker you move. With air you can train at any speed there is no mass so speed is not a factor.

Come in and see the difference between top of the line equipment and what's being used by the "others". We use state of the art pneumatic equipment because it is/has:

• non-intimidating to the user

• low impact on the joints

• zero starting resistance

• one pound increments

• simple to use

• easy to enter and exit

• range of motion controls

• adjustable during movement

• fits all body types

• unlimited training speed

• finger tip controls

Our pneumatic fitness equipment is used by over 500 Senior’s Fitness Centres as well as over 40 professional sports franchises such as the:

Oakland Raiders

Boston Red Sox

New York Rangers

Houston Rockets
