BENCHFIT
Overview
Get a safe and complete whole-body workout using nothing more than a park bench.
The simplicity of a park bench belies the amazing variety of exercises it offers. The seat of the bench allows for specific movements that can be executed by the hands and feet, and leg power can be built by using it as a platform for a vertical leap. The backrest can be used for balance and flexibility movements and its height makes it perfect for a variety of strength-building push-ups.
Often spread out on walking trails, a bench can be used as an extra exercise station in a well-thought out training circuit. In addition, walking, jumping or sprinting between each bench is a great way to stimulate the cardiovascular system. Benchfit is ideal for trails, seniors’ residences, small spaces and limited budgets.
SOLUTIONS FOR SCHOOLS
BENCHFIT circuits
We’ve developed four training programs that meet the needs of users of all ages and skill levels.
Enduro
FULL BODY WORKOUT
Enduro is the most demanding of all Benchfit fitness programs. Designed for people in good physical condition, it stimulates the major muscle groups at least twice.
Vitalia
FULL-BODY WORKOUT SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR SENIORS
Created for seniors and people who want a gentle exercise routine, each Vitalia station has two simple exercises that require very little strength or experience. Most movements in this circuit promote leg strength and trunk muscles so as to prevent falls.
Flexor
STRETCHING AND TRUNK STABILIZATION
The Flexor is intended for people wanting to get into shape gradually by improving their flexibility and strengthening their core muscles, which are both crucial for injury prevention. This program includes stretches for 12 different muscle groups.
