On Site Fitness has launched a new range of strength equipment for children. GymBoy is a specially designed version for young people of the company’s Switching system of strength equipment.

Comprising 10 machines, the GymBoy range provides a full body workout with each exercise performed in the standing position, enabling a more natural position and movement. This, it is claimed, helps to strengthen the stabilising core muscles – particularly important for young people to help ensure a correct posture.

The system aims to improve muscle strength and cardiovascular capacity, keeping the muscles and joints flexible. Each machine is designed to be easy to use and needs no adjustments, allowing for a safe, fast and effective workout.

The company says the equipment provides fast, visible results, helping to motivate children to train regularly. Each machine can be used individually, or they can be combined as a circuit. Managing director of On Site Fitness, Graham Taylor, says: “Clubs can benefit from GymBoy by being able to attract the whole family – parents and children can train in the same gym. This early introduction to exercise engages children with the benefits it can bring, helping them to develop an interest that continues into adulthood.

“As an industry, we have to share the responsibility for helping to engage children. It’s not about finger-wagging. It’s about developing fun, entertaining ways to exercise. We need to let children experience and understand the benefits that exercise can bring and show them the difference it can make.

“We don’t want our children to be body-obsessed and deprived of things that they enjoy, such as computer games, but neither do we want them to suffer the diseases that are linked to being overweight.”
