Student Housing
Campus communities are active non-stop, and it’s vital to create fitness and recreation areas that are available, convenient and varied, so that all students, no matter their schedule or preferences, can easily participate.
Municipal Recreation
Municipal recreation centers such as parks and fitness facilities play an extremely crucial role of providing easily-accessible health and wellness fitness equipment to local citizens of their respective communities throughout the entirety of the year. Many people depend upon municipal recreation centers to maintain or improve their overall health, well-being, and quality of life. As a result, it should be the goal of any one of these community fitness centers to be as inclusionary and encompassing as they can to appeal to anyone and everyone who values health and wellness, and maybe even educate those who currently don’t.
To be an inclusionary municipal fitness center, it is essential to offer a wide variety of cardio and strength training equipment to patrons of all fitness ability levels and ages. Treadmills, exercise bikes, ellipticals, free weights and dumbbells tend to be the most popular pieces of exercise equipment for our municipal rec center clients, as they cater to everyone no matter where they are in their fitness journey.

Corporate
One of the most effective ways to provide employees with greater corporate wellness opportunities is by constructing a fitness center in the workplace. One way to increase employee engagement and productivity at work is by promoting a greater work-life balance within company culture. By implementing corporate wellness programs and initiatives into routine, as is seen amongst many of the nation’s top workplaces, many of whom are our clients, workforces tend to experience surges of excitement and energy in their employees. Employees who exercise regularly have shown to exhibit stronger feelings of self-image, more positive attitudes, and subsequently, feel physically, emotionally, and mentally healthier and stronger, allowing them to be more engaged and productive at work. Studies have also indicated that when people work out regularly, they tend to have better time-management skills and customer service characteristics.
College Recreations
University gyms and college recreational centers play an integral role in providing students with the opportunity to initiate or maintain lifestyles of health and wellness. They allow students to mitigate the mental, emotional, and physical pressures of everyday college life, aiding them in reaching their greatest potential both inside and outside of the classroom.
In today’s day in age, a university’s recreation center can prove to be just as, if not more important of a recruiting tool than academic facilities or dormitories, and big-box fitness center type amenities have become expected from potential students and faculty alike. Students and faculty count on there being a diverse selection of fitness equipment to choose from, that there is enough equipment so they don’t need to wait for an exercise machine, and for equipment to be up-to-date, in great condition, and of course, hygienic.
College Athletics
College athletes require much more intense fitness equipment than the typical recreational fitness enthusiast, so Fitness Direct tailors our selection of gym equipment much differently than for our other clients. Subsequently, college sport athletic facilities demand a very different gym layout and design plan, which is what our experts have been doing best for 25 years. College athletes have devoted years of hard work in the gym to get them where they, and Fitness Direct knows what a college athletic fitness center needs to keep them performing at their greatest potential.
Pro Teams
Sports teams have seen extraordinary improvement in athletic performance over the last few years, and strength training has undoubtedly made one of the biggest, most positive contributions to this development. Every athletic program in the country, whether collegiate or professional, male or female, participates in some type of conditioning program.
Strength and fitness are key not only to solid athletic performance, but also to injury prevention. We have helped sports teams design and outfit their fitness centers and weight rooms with our reliable, high-quality equipment that maximizes training. From facility design and product expertise to service and delivery, Fitness Direct is committed to making sure your athletes get the very best.
