Gyms for the great outdoors
Supplier: The Great Outdoor Gym Company
More The Great Outdoor Gym Company details
|
The Great Outdoor Gym Company is in the process of installing a range of gym equipment at four sites in the South East of England.
The sites are situated in Rickmansworth and Abbots Langley in Hertfordshire as well as in South Harrow and Edgware.
The company has been working with their installation partner Park Leisure to provide local authorities and private sector organisations to provide free outdoor gyms for community use.
Comprising two outdoor ranges – ‘Street Gym’, designed with youths and teenagers in mind and ‘The Green Legacy Gym’, for use by people of all ages – all of the equipment has been rigorously designed and tested so that is uniquely compliant with the children’s playground safety standard EN1176 and the indoor training standard EN957. This means the equipment is completely safe for all the family to use.
Exercises available include chest press, combi chest lat press, combi stepper and oblique, crosstrainer. dips, lat pull down, leg press, pull ups, sit ups, ski, stretch point, thai chi, treadmill and bike.
It is the first company to receive independent certification for its equipment in these two standards by an RPII registered play inspector.
Additionally, the company is also working towards the Inclusive Fitness Initiative and have already incorporated key elements of this into their existing ranges with modifications such as easy-to-read signage.
