Bannatyne Fitness invests £850k in North East clubs

Bannatyne’s Fitness has invested £850k in four of its North East health clubs, replacing cardiovascular workout equipment.

New Technogym machines will be installed at Coulby Newham, Darlington, Durham and Stockton.

The equipment includes iPods, iPhones and USB sticks, allowing members to plug directly into the equipment and to listen to their favourite music or watch motivating videos as they complete their exercise routine.

The company has invested £250k at Coulby Newham in ten treadmills, two upright bikes, three reclining bikes, eight cross-trainers and two vario machines, which allow users to workout using a running action without the impact.

At Darlington, £300k has been spent on 13 treadmills, four upright bikes, two steppers, a hand bike, four reclining bikes, ten cross-trainers and three vario machines, while Durham has seen a £120k purchase of seven treadmills, eight cross-trainers and two vario machines.

Ingelby Barwick has benefitted from a £180k investment in 10 treadmills, four upright bikes, two steppers, eight cross-trainers and two vario machines.

Colin MacGillvray, North East regional manager at Bannatyne Fitness, said: “Bannatyne Fitness is a growing company which continually strives for excellence in its Health Clubs. Continually investing in new workout equipment is hugely important because it ensures that members are always able to access the very best and most up-to-date equipment to help them achieve their personal fitness goals.

“As well as docks to enable members to watch movies and listen to music, the new equipment has state-of-the-art enhanced technology which ensures a smoother operation for a more effective workout.”
