Kai Boyer Fitness has moved to a brand-spankin’ new gym and we are SO excited!
Our new gym has tons of great equipment that will assist in getting you to your goals and beyond. Our cardio machines include Erg row machines, Ellipticals, Treadmills, Assault bikes, and more!
The new gym also has Dual-stack cables, Smith racks, 2 Power Racks, Pull up /monkey bars, and Heavy bags. So what are these machines and what do they do? Let’s dive deeper!
Assault Bikes- What are these you ask? Well, these are heavy-duty exercise bikes designed directly from the feedback of athletes and coaches. The Assault AirBike reinvents and retools nearly every component of the traditional fan bike. The key to these bikes is you set your own pace. The resistance adapts to your own output, and the bike’s multiple, custom seat adjustments make for a more comfortable, customized ride.
Ah, the classic and beloved treadmill. What would a gym be without one? Treadmills are the ultimate cardio machine. They work by moving belt that is powered by a motor. The person exercising sets the speed of the belt and proceeds to run on the surface of it as fast or as slow as the belt is moving. Incline, decline...the treadmill gots you girl!
The elliptical. One of our all-time favorite cardio calorie-burning machines! An elliptical trainer or cross-trainer is a stationary exercise machine used to stair climb, walk, or run without causing excessive pressure to the joints. It is a great cardio option because it gives both your upper and lower body a workout. BAM! Time saver!
Get your row on with our new rowing machines. Rowing machines can help improve your posture as you build strength and offer a whole-body workout that engages your arms, legs, core, and back. Yes, please! The rowing machine is a great full-body workout that can improve both strength endurance and cardiovascular endurance.
The purpose of a double pulley is to increase the mechanical advantage of the system, thereby reducing the effort required to move a given load. As more pulleys are added to a compound pulley system, the weight of the load is divided and the load becomes easier to move.
Smith machines, or Smith cages, were named after Rudy Smith, the gym owner who invented them. With a Smith machine, you have twin rods that guide your barbell, so it can move only in a vertical motion. There are also safety stops on the guide rails so you can set how far the bar will descend.
A power rack is the ultimate gym equipment. You can use it for back squats, front squats, shoulder press, deadlifts, bench press, and heavy rows. These power racks enable you to lift heavy free weights without needing a spotting partner, then you must add a power rack to it. The power racks are versatile, they can be used to perform more than a dozen exercises.
Monkey bars aren't just great playground equipment, they are a fun and great way to improve your posture and strength too. Monkey bars can also be used as to provide a great exercise that can help maintain postural strength.
Heavy bag workouts can help to improve technique, provide strength training for power, build better balance and coordination, and even reduce stress. One of the most apparent benefits of hitting the heavy bag is that it improves your boxing technique.
There are so many different combinations that Kai can tailor directly to your workout plan. Message us today to get started and hear all about our GRAND OPENING SPECIALS!
