TRX Suspension Training Systems also utilize and adapt to every square inch of your exercise facility or personal training studio. TRX Corner Units, for instance, include mounted TV and self-guided straps and add-ons for functional training, upper body, lower body,and always your core muscles.

If you can create an attractive, efficient and inspiring office fitness space in or around your office, then you help make the idea of consistent and convenient exercise a part of the normal workday schedule.

Couples Who Exercise Together

Get strong and confident and engage with a partner, friend or family member by celebrating a special Valentine’s Day this year.

At the gym, you might try hot yoga and Body Pump classes together, or make a pact with your significant other to experiment with a new sport or exercise workshop once a month – and always together. Studies show, after all, that romantic couples that exercise together are generally happier in the relationship and more attracted to their partner.

At home, fit couples might set up cardio circuit training stations with weights and a treadmill or a stationary bike. Interestingly, research also shows that if you improve your own workout consistency, your sweetheart is 50 percent more likely to do the same. (That is a surefire recipe for a happier love life.)

Smart Workouts for Valentine’s Day

When you exercise, the release of endorphins, those feel-good hormones or feelings of pleasure that you release (in your brain) may create the perfect chemical mix for a vibrant and enriching love life.

Firm Up and Maintain Exercise Motivation

– Hire a personal trainer for two for one month of workouts

How to Make Exercising Together a Higher Priority

Set up a new home gym together for Valentine’s Day or take a wild fitness class at the new gym in town. Opti-Fit Fitness Systems can help brainstorm and create the ultimate fitness space for your school or college, or a residential fitness center.

Ask about our free fitness facility assessment and 3-dimensional gym renderings for your customized fitness space. We’ll make it your happiest Valentine’s Day ever.

Conceiving of – and executing on – a world-class fitness center in your high school or college recreational gym space not only ensures the healthy activity of its student body, but the school needs a first-rate fitness facility to help recruit new students while also utilizing it for academic classes and athletic purposes.

Today’s school fitness centers are typically enormous layouts with state-of-the-art equipment for young athletes, including indoor tracks, Pilates studios, sand volleyball courts and golf simulators. Ah, to be a kid again!

The Process of Conception and Design Layout

By far, the most upgraded community-wide amenity since 2014 has been the multi-family fitness center. Recent research finds that 46 percent of tenants are willing to pay a premium for complexes that have group fitness classes – in addition to on-site gyms.  Top-notch, customized exercise equipment can vastly improve tenant interactions and a sense of community in your multi-family apartment or condo complex. Having a friendly, uncluttered neighborhood fitness center is also priceless for municipal relations. 
As you’ve probably recognized, the modern family fitness center has changed dramatically over the last 25 years – and an ancient, drab ill-equipped multi-family exercise space is a serious obstacle to any apartment complex’s appeal. Tenants can head next door.

Signs of a Healthy Residential Fitness Center

You choose the best equipment

For branding and safety, the need for high-quality commercial exercise equipment is mandatory. By using easily recognized, top-of-the-line equipment, multi-family groups differentiate themselves from competing apartment units.

You know your budget but aim high.

It’s the busiest travel season of the year, and many folks are visiting over long holiday weekends. Whether you are hosting the celebrations this year or flying around the country to join in, you may not have access to your normal gym routine, and may also have to work late and entertain.

Don’t ditch your calorie and stress-relieving cardio workouts just yet. You need them more than ever.

And help is on the way: If you or a member of your family lives in a multi-family space with a fitness center, your holiday luck has officially arrived. Research the fitness centers class schedule where you’ll be and sign up for yoga classes or pay a day rate at a local rec center or YMCA.

When you can steal 15, 20 or even 25 minutes during the holiday exuberance, it may help keep excess calories (and holiday stress) at bay.

Slate Regular Exercise to Stop Holiday Stress

To avoid getting trapped into using eating or meal times as an emotional crutch, devise other soothing strategies for self-preservation. This may include:

• Building in time alone during the chaos
• Getting enough sleep and not over-scheduling
• Working out every day, even for 15 minutes
• Asking family for help baking, cleaning or shopping
• Giving exercise DVDS as gifts
• Hiring extra help to clean up after the festivities

So remember,  holiday celebrations have officially started! That’s a lot of opportunity to skip exercise and double down on Thanksgiving dessert. Don’t do it! It’s basically freezing all over the country so buy a day pass to a local YMCA or use that local multi-family fitness center to blast calories and stress. Try drinking more water during all your fat-burning cardio workouts – and save that spiked eggnog for later.

Do @CardioMachine  #LoseThanksgivingPounds.

Seems like having a fitness center at your fingertips is very good for the real estate business. In a recent home report in The New York Times, housing trends show that multi-family residents across multiple generations are willing to trade-in unit square footage for added space in common areas, on-site workout facilities, and for pools.

Customized multi-family fitness centers must reflect the style and philosophy of the day in order to  attract today’s modern family members, and this may include spaces for socializing, lots of natural light or solar panels, and instant Wi-Fi connectivity.

Every fitness and wellness space is slightly different, of course, and so we always take into consideration different configurations – and work closely with our clients to deliver the optimal fitness experience. We design your space while partnering with your architects, interior designer and contractors to fully optimize your fitness amenities and breath-taking design elements.

Multi-Family Fitness Centers Require Light and Space

At Opti-Fit, our specialized software process may provide realistic renderings of your facility while bringing a strong sense of detail and accuracy to a multi-family wellness space.

As your potential tenants tour places to live, knowing their family will take advantage of the fitness center, here are several things to be on the lookout for when designing a new multi-family fitness center:

• First consider the demographics and users to this new facility. It’s important to consider the ages and other characteristics of the residents.
• Select visually appealing carpeting or flooring; install mirrors to open up the room.
• Make it a smart mix of cardio equipment, strength machines, free weights, medicine balls and everything else you need to exercise, whether you are a Baby Boomer or a super-fit millennial.
• Build value in your community by reminding residents online of all the healthy living amenities your residence offers. Building a residential fitness center everyone can enjoy is an excellent opportunity to add market appeal and boost engagement.

Whether renting or buying, today’s savvy multi-family residents are looking for amenities that go beyond the front lobby, shared common area and outside spaces. They want a fantastic fitness center and excellent equipment maintenance, too.
