Whereas private fitness equipment is only used by one or two people a few times each week, commercial fitness equipment is often in use all day, every day. High impact exercises need heavy duty fitness equipment, so when you’re buying new equipment for your gym, make sure it can take the strain.

Commercial fitness equipment for your gym

According to the Fitness Industry Association, there are now over 5,000 gyms across the country – over half of them private clubs. From people exercising before work, to retirees who want to lose weight and become more active, gym membership is still appealing to many – although it has growing competition from exercise classes such as Pilates and yoga. In order to keep people coming to your gym, you need to invest in the latest commercial fitness equipment, where your customers can enjoy a short, beneficial workout at a time that suits them. Commercial fitness equipment on the market today includes:

Trampolines – mini-trampolines are an excellent addition to your commercial fitness equipment. The craze for garden trampolines has meant that more people are recognising the benefits of this type of aerobic training and providing good quality trampolines and qualified instruction on how to use them could attract more people to your gym.

Steps – step training is a popular form of aerobic exercise and many gyms buy this type of commercial fitness equipment in order to run dedicated step classes. Good quality steps can last for years, allowing you to provide a great workout to your customers.

Strength training – weights, cardio and strength commercial fitness equipment items are all still popular and today you can choose from a huge range. From medicine balls and smaller weights for those just starting out to professional weights equipment for the serious trainer, you can provide your customers with everything they need to improve muscle strength and body tone.

Cross trainers – along with the traditional treadmills, rowing machines and exercise bikes, cross trainers represent the core of many gyms. This type of commercial fitness equipment is constantly being updated and refreshed, giving users more options and giving your gym a modern look. If your cardio-vascular equipment is looking tired, think about replacing it with some of the newer versions of commercial fitness equipment.
