SELECTORIZED EQUIPMENT

Developed  by Arthur Jones (inventor of Nautilus), MedX equipment is the most technologically advanced fitness, sports and medical/rehabilitation equipment available.

The capabilities of MedX equipment are unprecedented.  Each piece in the product line is designed to achieve efficiency in training by offering resistance curves matched to tested and proven strength profiles.  MedX strength-training machines operate at a very low level of friction and offer a choice of resistance in 2 pound increments.  This maximizes a members chances of setting a weight that is just right, not too heavy and no too light, for rapid and steady progress.

Every element of the machine drive train is designed to achieve vertical weight stack movement of only one foot on a full-range repetition, about half of what other equipment produces.  Reducing inertia enhances safety.

By eliminating friction, inducing weight stack rods, lowering inertia by shortening weight stack vertical travel to one foot, and using ball bearings throughout the machine, repetitions on MedX equipment have a smoothness that can't be matched.

COMPLIMENTARY FITNESS SERVICES

Result updates are scheduled with our Personal Trainers.  Services available during a Results Update include questions regarding: reaching a strength plateau, injury specific exercise and weight loss, body composition analysis, free weights and other technical questions.

A Custom Fit Orientation is the only way to become properly oriented to the MedX circuit.  A Custom Fit will give you: an introduction to the theory of the MedX circuit, individual seat settings and an understanding of each piece of equipment.

A schedule of Custom Fit Orientations and Results Updates are available in the monthly newsletter.

PERSONAL TRAINING

Whether you are new to exercise, have limitations due to health complications or compete at a high level athletically, we have the trainer for you. SWAC personal trainers are nationally certified (ACE minimum) and results oriented. Sessions with our trainers can be done one-on-one, in a buddy setting, in small groups or “open sessions”.

Working with a trainer is one of the most effective ways to improve your overall health and fitness. A trainer will coach you, monitor your progress, and fine tune your program helping you to break through plateaus. You will learn the safest and most effective way to use equipment with the correct form and techniques. Individualized programs that are sport-specific can help you to improve your performance level. Friendly, professional, our Personal Trainers will develop a program to suit your body, level of fitness and time constraints.
