Continuing to Invest in the Gym

We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of some new pieces of kit in the gym this month.  These are:

• Three new Technogym synchro cross-trainers, which feature an increased range of motion on the stride for better activation of the leg muscles.
• A new model leg extension machine, which features a larger weight stack, providing more resistance for those looking to lift heavier.
• A replacement upright leg curl machine. This new kit will be a dual-function leg curl and leg extension machine, which means we will have a second leg extension station on the gym floor – this kit is always well-used!
• The existing cable row machine will be replaced with a newer model that supports a range of different attachments, offering greater exercise variety and more ways to target those important back muscles.

Finally, following feedback, we are also adding two new 10kg kettlebells, to fill the gap between 8kg and 12kg and enable smoother and easier progression.

If you would like any help using the new functionality on the machines or haven’t used any of them before, do ask one of the gym team for assistance. Or you can book a refresher gym induction at Reception.

The latest kit follows the addition of the plate loaded bicep curl, additional bench and the upgrade of our eight treadmills at the beginning of last year, and continues our ongoing investment programme in the gym.

We are already looking at what the next changes will be and always welcome feedback from members on this topic. So if you feel we are missing any key equipment in the gym, or need to look at replacing certain items, please do let us know. You can either speak to gym manager Jan, email us with any ideas at [email protected], or provide your feedback via the app by going to “Club”  and then “Give us your Feedback”.
