This area consists of single station exercise equipment to work every major muscle and body part. It features a full range of isolated-singular exercises for each part of the body. As you progress down the line, each piece of equipment will work a different part of the body; isolating that muscle group. “Circuit Training” means you simply start at one end of the row; do 1-2 sets of exercises on each piece of equipment until you are finished. This gives you a complete workout for the entire body. There are Fitness Consultants in this area to help you at all times. |
