School Sales

Summertime is when most schools replace and repair their athletic equipment so this is the time to focus on your sales to schools.  Many larger purchases may be undertaken through formal RFPs but add-ons and single piece replacements are frequently needed and are done when the need arrives.

Body Solid carries a number of excellent products that are perfect for school use.  Schools buy iron of all types and we offer a wide array of products from cast iron and rubber coated, grip and regular, standard and olympic, dumbbells, kettlebells, and weighted fitness bars.  Our rubber Olympic bumper plates are perfect for the school environment combining improved protection for floors with reduced risk of injury for the user – always a special concern in educational environments.  Power racks also do well in the school environment and our GPR378 along with its optional lat attachment the GLA378 are perfect fits.  On the Cardio side, the Endurance E5000 – our commercial level center drive elliptical is sturdy and stable with a relatively small footprint when compared to other commercial level ellipticals.

Whatever the need may be, contact your local school and let us help you help them.

Functional Strength Training For Enhanced Performance

 While most exercise programs are centered around the quick and easy road toward the “perfect” body, a recent trend termed “Functional Training” focuses on enhanced performance in our daily activities and athletics. 

Whether it’s moving the refrigerator or the quick “start and stop” movements in athletics,  functional programs are designed to mimic everyday activities that integrate hundreds of muscles together.    These movements improve strength, endurance, flexibility, coordination, balance, agility and speed.   Sports that require quick directional changes such as football, tennis, soccer and basketball all benefit from increased functional training.

Body Solid provides functional training options in the GDCC200 and the GDCC210  as well as with our Fusion Series gyms.  Other functional training aids include Body Solid dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls and stability balls.
