Whether installed as a full outdoor gym or as individual pieces within a wider scheme, the Resistance Range offers a practical solution for modern public fitness.

WHOLE-BODY WORKOUT

The Resistance Range includes a carefully selected mix of strength and cardio equipment, allowing users to train effectively regardless of experience or ability.

Strength equipment includes:

• Resistance Chest Press – builds strength in the chest, shoulders and arms
• Resistance Shoulder Press – improves shoulder strength and stability
• Resistance Seated Row – great for improving posture and back and arm strength
• Resistance Lat Pulldown – tones and strengthens the upper body

Cardio equipment includes:

• Resistance Bike – cardio workout for legs and core
• Resistance Accessible Arm Bike – wheelchair friendly cardio fitness for arms 

Together, these products provide a holistic workout focusing on various training styles.

Each piece of equipment mirrors what users would expect to find in an indoor gym, and members of the public can use the outdoor gym for FREE, at a time that suits them, making the new Resistance Range an extremely valuable local community provision. 

ADJUSTABLE WEIGHT STACK SYSTEM

One of the key advantages of the Resistance Range is its adjustable weight stack system. 

Users can increase or decrease resistance to suit their strength level and training goals.

The weight stacks are fully enclosed for safety and vandal resistance, while clear instruction panels support independent use. This makes the range suitable for beginners, regular exercisers and more advanced users, all using the same equipment.

Research shows that experiencing progression towards our goals is essential for maintaining motivation and delivering real fitness benefits, so by allowing users to challenge themselves over time, the Resistance Range encourages repeat visits and long-term engagement.

ACCESSIBLE AND INCLUSIVE DESIGN

Accessibility is built into the design of the Resistance Range. 

Equipment is suitable for users 1.4 metres and above, with ergonomic seats, multi grip handles and low impact movement patterns that are gentle on joints.

The Resistance Arm Bike has been specifically designed for wheelchair and non-wheelchair users. Its open access layout allows users to position a wheelchair directly in front of the unit, or to use it from a standing or seated position. 

Clear instruction panels ensure the equipment is easy to understand, reducing barriers to participation.

LONG TERM VALUE

Outdoor fitness equipment must withstand heavy use, changing weather and the realities of public environments. 

The Resistance Range has been engineered with durability in mind.

Features include:

• Vandal resistant construction
• Slimline designs with minimal footprints
• Smooth and quiet operation
• Low maintenance requirements

All equipment is fully compliant with EN16630 standards and comes with warranty support; structural components are covered for 25 years, with additional guarantees on paint finishes and moving parts. 

This ensures excellent value for public investment.

TARGETED RESULTS

Each piece of equipment in the Resistance Range is designed to cover specific training styles.

• The Resistance Chest Press develops strength in the chest, shoulders and arms while remaining low impact.
• The Resistance Shoulder Press targets the shoulders, arms and upper back, supporting functional strength and posture.
• The Resistance Seated Row builds strength through the back, biceps and core while also improving balance and flexibility.
• The Resistance Lat Pulldown focuses on the back, arms and core, offering a familiar gym movement that supports progressive strength building.
• The Resistance Bike delivers cardiovascular training through user generated resistance. The faster the user pedals, the harder the workout, making it suitable for warm-ups, steady exercise or more challenging sessions.
• The Resistance Arm Bike (Accessible) provides a low impact cardio workout for upper body strength, coordination and core stability, with the same progressive resistance principles.

PARKS, SCHOOLS AND DEVELOPMENTS

The Resistance Range can be installed as a complete outdoor gym or integrated into existing fitness areas, trails or community spaces. 

Its slimline footprint makes it suitable for smaller sites without compromising on functionality.

Fresh Air Fitness also offers a full in-house service, supporting projects from consultation through installation and surfacing. This ensures every project is designed to meet the bespoke requirements of every location and there is always expert advice on hand throughout.

QUALITY FITNESS FOR OUTDOOR SPACES

The Resistance Range is about more than just the equipment alone. Every Fresh Air Fitness outdoor gym space feels purposeful, inclusive and built for real use. 

By combining adjustable resistance, accessible design and long-term durability, we are proud to have created a range that speaks to our user feedback, community need and genuinely bridges the gap between indoor gyms and outdoor environments.

For councils, schools and developers looking to invest in community wellbeing, the Resistance Range offers a proven, future ready solution that supports healthier, more active lifestyles for years to come.
