Centre Developments At Chelsea

 

We are planning on improving the Gym for our customers and would like to share our ideas with you.

Gym Developments

The proposed improvements are focused on responding to customer demand by installing new equipment and increasing the size of the current functional and free weight areas.  As part of the improvements we will be installing/upgrading the following:

  • New bespoke astroturf functional area with an additional functional frame with multiple stations including dip and TRX stations. This area will also include a sled track with weighted sled.
  • New Technogym cardio machines including Skillrun, Skillrow, and Stairclimber models, however we will be losing the following older equipment: 5 treadmills, 2 crossover machines, 1 crosstrainer, 1 bike and 1 vario machine.
  • In a revised free weight area at the far end of the gym area we will be installing the following:
    • New dumbbells to replace older ones.
    • New lifting platform.
    • New Olympic flat bench.
    • New Olympic half rack.
  • In addition to the equipment installations we will be making upgrades to the floors, .lighting and décor of the gym areas.

Further details and drawings of the proposed plans are displayed in the centre reception.

We are keen to hear your thoughts so please let us know your feedback by completing one of our customer comment forms, speaking to a member of staff or emailing us.
