Benefits

The ELEVATE Circuit is a line of commercial gym equipment offering safe and effective functional strength training. Employing the same principles as Total Gym’s hallmark GTS piece, each piece in the circuit uses bodyweight as resistance—meaning no weight stacks or plates.

This unique line is ideal as a tool for personal training, as a dedicated self-serve circuit on the gym floor, or as the foundation for a group training program.

Benefits for the individual exerciser:

• Designed for intuitive use
• Functionally strengthens muscles
• Enhanced functional performance of daily activities and increased athleticism
• Exercises can be progressed or regressed to accommodate all fitness levels

Training applications and biomechanics:

• Restricted range of motion 
• Train using only bodyweight
• Joint friendly, non-compressive

With five machines in less than 200 square feet and over 80 different exercises, the ELEVATE Circuit offers fitness facilities a variety of implementation options.

Intuitive, easy to understand, and featuring an illustrated placard on each piece, the ELEVATE Circuit can be installed on the weight training floor or in the functional training area of any facility for members to use on their own.

Ideal for personal trainers, the ELEVATE Circuit can be used to easily introduce clients to a functional style of training and allowing for scaled intensity.

Why would my members use the ELEVATE Super Circuit over other equipment in my facility?
The ELEVATE Super Circuit bridges the gap between traditional selectorized equipment and hyper functional cages because members of any fitness level can be successful with bodyweight training. Unlike any other equipment the ELEVATE  Super Circuit unloads to a percentage of bodyweight, not 100% of bodyweight so someone who cannot normally do a regular pull-up for example, can perform one using this equipment.

How will bodyweight training benefit my members?
Bodyweight training is an extremely effective for building muscle while adopting a more natural range of motion that improves athleticism quickly and effectively. This type of functional training benefits every body as it is designed to mirror the way a body actually moves. The Circuit applies the unique concept of incline bodyweight training as the method of resistance, rather than the traditional weighted resistance most fitness equipment is built upon.

How can my members get a full body workout in 30 minutes?
