One Circuit is outside of the track and has more of a private setting. This circuit includes 2 Total Access Machines, a Chest Press and a Lat Pulldown. Total Access machines are designed specifically to address the exercise needs of people with disabilities, as well as the active aging population. Another circuit is in the middle of the track. Cybex really researches the biomechanics of the human body and has done testing on athletes to understand how muscles are targeted and minimum stress is placed on joints. You will love the Cybex equipment.
The floor includes some Precor Treadmills, AMTs, and Precor bikes for some great cardio equipment. Precor was the first to design the Elliptical so they know they have got a great product. The Floor also includes a Precor stretch trainer. The trainer enables users to prepare their bodies for a stronger and more satisfying workout and helps to prevent injury during and after exercise. The floor includes Lifefitness Treadmills, Ellipticals, and Step Mills. Cybex offers the ARC Trainer, Treadmills and bikes on the floor as well.
