Sportsplex Athletic Club has a unique and exciting line of equipment made by
Technogym. With the use of computerized machines and personalized disks called
"keys" you can have your workouts conveniently organized, saved and updated with
the touch of finger! Hopefully you will gain an understanding of what it is and
how it can help
your
workouts using some of
the various features.
The first thing you need to do to truly utilize this system is to get a "key".
The key looks like an oversized version of your car key but it actually works
like a computer disk. This key can hold multiple programs for workouts, guides
your through your workout and stores that information. When you first join the
Athletic Club, you are entitled to three complimentary "NEWFIT" sessions with a
personal trainer; the trainer will personalize a workout program that fits your
needs on a key. Within your NEWFIT sessions the basics are covered on how to use
the Technogym system so you are confident about using your key in the machines
and able to record and save your workout data.
So why is all of this helpful? First of all it saves you TIME! No more fussing
with equipment settings- it's already programmed for you! Guesswork is also
eliminated. The Technogym system tells you which machine or exercise to do and
it will even remind you which exercise comes next once you've finished an
exercise. Your trainer can also program cardiovascular exercises to keep your
heart healthy and strong. Automatic upgrades can be set so that every few
sessions the exercises are more challenging. Even free weight exercises can be
programmed on your key workouts! No more carrying around workout cards, pencils
and clipboards! You can even record if you take group exercise classes!
Basically, any exercise you do can be tracked and recorded in your personal
file.
By recording your effort, you'll be able to track your improvement and check
your own consistency. You can even print out reports that summarize all of this
data. There is even a feature that provides you with an exercise and stretching
library. There are literally hundreds of exercises and stretches! All are
organized according to the specific part of the body that you want to work and
you can even view a short video that shows you how to execute the movement!
The Technogym system is extremely user friendly- even if you don't like
computers! By the time you finish those three visits with the trainer, you will
have all the knowledge you need to keep your workouts time efficient,
challenging, and fun! There are many reasons and excuses that all of us can make
to avoid working out but with the Technogym key you can eliminate the guesswork.
All of these things keep you focused towards your goals so that ultimately you
see results. The only thing you need to do now is get yourself to the gym!
