Can Artificial Grass Handle Gym Workouts?
Most gyms have a really hard, industrial floor surface as they do take quite a hammering. Artificial turf is extremely strong and hard wearing, and can easily handle a gym workout.
There is a vast array of equipment in a gym set up including – squat rack, barbells, bench press, incline bench press, hammer strength machine, cables and pulleys, dumbbells, pullup bar, lat pulldown machine, leg extension machine, leg curl machine, hyper extension bench, dipping bars, smith machine, preacher bench, abdominal bench, leg press machine, hack squat machine, calf machine, leg adduction/abduction machine, peck deck machine, indoor cycle bike, kettle bells, wall ball, foam roller, stability ball, cardiovascular machines, treadmills, rowing machines, elliptical machines, upright bikes, stair mills, recumbent exercise bikes, etc.
Many gyms also offer different classes including – aerobics, step aerobics, dance, fitball, self defence, balance, yoga, pilates, circuit training, cross fit, pole fitness, tai chi, etc
Point of Difference – Artificial grass installed on your gym floor
For the classes such as yoga, tai chi, pilates – imagine how the participants would appreciate the feeling of being on grass? How much more relaxing that would be?
For the circuit training, cross fit, self defence and aerobics classes – how much more fun would the class be outside (but inside – on artificial grass, with fans simulating the wind, and murals of trees, etc painted on the walls)?
For the weight circuit – rather than cold hard concrete, you will see peaceful, tranquil grass while pushing the body limits.
