American Fitness Unveils Fitness Equipment Packages for Start-Up Commercial Fitness Centers

Portland, OR (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

American Fitness is introducing a series of fitness equipment packages designed to help new fitness centers, health clubs, and gyms outfit their facilities with quality commercial fitness equipment. A survey of new fitness center owners by AmericanFitness.net found that selecting the right exercise equipment for their facilities is a top concern. New gyms are interested in getting a good value for their start-up budgets, while also ensuring customer satisfaction. The exercise equipment needs to be known brands of top quality and durability that delivers results. Matching or coordinating equipment from a few select brands is helpful in conveying a professional and organized image, especially for new facilities looking to recruit customers.


American Fitness has developed a series of fitness equipment packages focused on the most popular types of exercise equipment typically found in a multi-user health club, gym, or fitness center. The packages are available in a variety of configurations of strength training equipment, cardio equipment, or a mix of both. They are comprised of high quality commercial fitness equipment, which is specially designed to withstand the rigors of a multi-user environment. By combining the equipment into packages, AmericanFitness.net is able to offer additional discounts over the cost of purchasing the equipment individually.


?New fitness center owners are faced with lots of decisions, from how to attract customers to outfitting their facilities,? said Ron Thompson, President of American Fitness. ?It can be challenging to determine which equipment to purchase, especially when working with a start-up budget. We are pleased to be able to offer them high quality and affordable fitness equipment packages to help support the success of their businesses.?


The packages available at AmericanFitness.net include a selection of weight packages, such as free weights, kettlebells, weight racks, weight benches, and other weight sets. Cardio packages include different combinations of elliptical cross trainers, treadmills, and exercise bikes. There is also a complete start-up fitness center package with the essential exercise equipment required to get a new gym or health club up and running. This package was developed based on American Fitness? extensive experience working with health club and other gym owners to compile a list of core exercise equipment desired by their customers. It takes the guesswork out of having to choose individual equipment and better ensures all basic fitness needs will be met. Pieces in this package were selected for quality, popularity, and the ability to fit even in compact fitness facilities.


The fitness equipment packages are designed for start-up fitness facilities, but also offer value to existing facilities looking to replace outdated or worn out equipment. These include fitness centers in schools, hotels, and workplace environments, such as corporate offices, fire departments, or military bases. Many of the packages are ideal, as well, for expanding fitness facilities looking to complement their existing assortment of commercial fitness equipment.

World's First Core-Cardio-Strength Cycle Enters Commercial Market

Canton, Ohio (PRWEB) December 09, 2011

Fit One is introducing the BallBike Revolution, the world?s first full commercial Core-Cardio-Strength Cycle. The BallBike Revolution is a sleek machine that looks like the child of a motorcycle and an indoor bike with a stability ball seat. It is a single synergistic workout that works the whole body at the same time, to save time. Although it looks a little unusual at first, once you get the idea of sitting on the ball there is no going back to the awkward bike seats of the past.


The patented ?controlled instability? cradle, which holds the stability ball, allows the user to work their core muscles while getting a full cardio workout. The heavy gauged steel frame has a step though design and incorporates 16 levels of magnetic resistance. Similar to an indoor or recumbent cycle, the BallBike Revolution allows users to work at a high level of impact free intensity. However, unlike a typical commercial bike, the BallBike adds a strength element by adding rubber resistance tubes which can be used for upper body conditioning. There is also the main benefit of working core muscles and getting a cardio workout with the comfort of the stability ball.


The workouts on this piece of equipment range from Group Exercise to Rehab and infinitely in between. The BallBike offers core, cardio and strength, in a full commercial product, into an industry that hasn?t seen anything ?truly? new since the elliptical in the mid-nineties.


The BallBike Revolution is slated for US distribution in Mid-January 2012 and can be seen in more detail on http://www.BallBike.com.

Portland, Oregon (PRWEB) December 28, 2011

American Fitness, a premier supplier of fitness equipment serving consumers and commercial organizations, is focused on helping people achieve their health and wellness goals following a busy holiday season. Whether due to the cold winter months, overindulgence at holiday celebrations, or the stress of everything surrounding the holidays, many Americans get off track with healthy eating and exercise during the month of December. To help get fitness goals back in line, American Fitness has partnered with FMI Fitness Master to offer special savings on a range of exercise equipment, including home and commercial fitness equipment.

For individuals looking to jump start a fitness routine or recover from a season of sugary and high fat foods, American Fitness recommends Fitness Master?s Fitnex brand of exercise equipment. This light commercial fitness equipment line is ideal for both individuals and small group use, such as in hotels, apartment and condominium complexes, and workplace health centers. For those who live and work in cold winter areas, where regular travel to the gym can be hampered by snow, bringing exercise equipment in-house is a superb way to start and maintain a workout routine. The Fitnex E55SG elliptical offers a space saving design with quality construction for an excellent cardiovascular workout. Other popular choices include the Fitnex T60 treadmill, B70 exercise bike, R70 recumbent bike, or X Series Velocity bike.

For groups requiring a higher level of quality and durability, such as the military, fire departments, and athletic departments, American Fitness recommends Fitness Master?s Steelflex brand of commercial fitness equipment.

The line includes plateloaded strength training machines, Aristo cardio equipment, and hydraulic strength equipment designed for both the rehabilitation and strength training markets.


?The holiday season can be a time of overindulgence and too little exercise,? said Ron Thompson, President of AmericanFitness.net. ?Add to this financial considerations due to economic conditions and it?s not surprising that exercise has fallen down the priority list. With post-holiday savings on home and commercial fitness equipment, American Fitness aims to help our customers get back on track with healthy living.?
