Urbanix outdoor gym equipment installed in Leatherhead

The challenge

Mole Valley District Council wanted to provide its community with free and effective outdoor gym equipment to improve activity levels locally. The project was the first of its kind in the borough and was installed in a socially deprived area to give the community an opportunity to exercise without having to pay gym fees. The site was adjacent to a sports field and close to a school, complementing current facilities and is ideally situated to entice local pupils.

The solution

Proludic presented the innovative Urbanix outdoor gym range, which is the only one of its kind on the market in the UK. The difference between Urbanix and other outdoor gym equipment is that Urbanix uses hydraulic pistons to offer 8 levels of resistance, whereas other equipment only uses body weight. Urbanix therefore allows for a progressive workout.

Within days of installation, multiple boot camps and fitness instructors were using the equipment, all praising its usability and quality. Mole Valley District Council are very pleased with the project and are now looking to install more sites across the borough.
