The benefits of strength training for women are so powerful! One of the most important benefits - and a well-kept secret to weight-loss - is Increased Metabolic Rate (burning more calories on a daily basis). Women can also increase lean muscle mass by lifting weights but do not need to worry about bulking up like men - we don't have enough testosterone!. Research shows that women can add up to 30% more muscle by adding weight training. Added muscle gives a more shapely, firm, strong and toned body - which is very important since we lose 2-5% muscle mass each year as we age.

Other benefits of Strength Training are:
  • Increasing and Restoring Bone Density - prevents and fights osteoporosis
  • Injury Prevention - strengthening supportive mucles and tendons for knees & other joints
  • Reducing Body Fat - every pound of lean muscle burns 35-50 calories per day!
  • Improved Balance - builds a strong foundation for overall balance and coordination, especially important as we age
  • Increased Heart Health - reduces blood pressure and cholesterol
  • Enhanced Performance in All Other Activity - overall quality of life with ease of movement and more energy
  • Aging Gracefully - strength training is a major factor in aging well

We offer several ways to Strength Train:

  • Hoist Weight Equipment
  • Small Group Training Classes
  • Interval Group Exercise Classes
  • Vibration Training

We are pleased to offer state-of-the-art strength training machines with the innovative ROX™ (Ride Oriented Xercise) Technology, a new commercial line by Hoist. Gaining popularity overseas and the west coast, we are one of the few facilities in the Carolinas to have this ROC-IT™ line of equipment. The machines continuously adjust the position of the user with the movement of the exercise arm to maintain proper alignment. This is weight-stacked, NOT Hydraulic, and is comfortably sized for women. Women who have neck or back problems are able to use heavier weight on the Rox machines because of the extra support and body alignment.
