The space-saving Vitality Series strength range from Precor offers operators a conditioning circuit with a natural feel and ease of use.
The range has eighteen machines, including ten single-use stations, seven dual-use units and one multi-use machine.
Steve Carter, MD at Precor UK, says: “While many operators are removing cardio units to make space for functional fitness, our smaller footprint and dual-use strength kit offer another way to create space.
"Smaller footprint kit with single- or dual-function enables gyms to offer a high level of strength training, while providing the flexibility to create bigger functional areas.

The need for strength
“Whether a small boutique or a large community facility, the need to provide strength equipment remains; so it’s how you maximise your floor space and provide exercisers with choice, functionality and an overall great exercise experience that matters.
"However minimal the offering, it’s important to make the most of your strength area with key pieces. For example, the dual-use Vitality Series Pulldown/Seated Row or Leg Press/Calf Extension both give exercisers the ability to work on different muscles using one machine, with all the functionality of larger pieces.
Grips with multiple positions, easy-to-adjust seats, and a simple push of a leaver to engage add-on weight are just some of the benefits that make these machines easy to use.
"Making the environment as welcoming as possible is also key to encouraging usage, so our machines incorporate lower height stacks, which make them more inviting, as members can see across the gym floor, while instructional placards help with ease of use," says Carter.
