There was a time when exercise equipment meant free weights, resistance machines, stationary bicycles and treadmills.Not anymore, and certainly not at Cybex International lnc. The Medway company manufactures premium exercise equipment, primarily for commercial use. Its product line includes a full range of strength and cardiovascular training machines. All are designed using exercise science to reflect the natural movement of the body. It even has its own research institute.

Cybex fitness equipment is engineered to produce optimal results for users from the first-time exerciser to the professional athlete, the company states. Cybex designs and builds its products in the U.S.A. for a wide range of facilities, from commercial health clubs to home gyms, in more than 85 countries worldwide.

Cybex is owned by John Aglialoro, who serves as the companys chairman and CEO, and Arthur W. Hicks Jr., its president and chief operating officer.

Hicks recently discussed Cybex with Daily News staff writer Bob Tremblay.

QUESTION: When was the business started?

ANSWER: The original Cybex was founded as a division of Lumex Inc. a therapeutic health and hospital products company that acquired the patent for the first Cybex product, an isokinetic testing device in 1970.

Lumex developed into a major designer and manufacturer of performance measurement and rehabilitation systems, with the Cybex brand becoming known nationally and internationally. Sports teams, such as the Dallas Cowboys, and individual athletes, including boxer Muhammad Ali and pitcher Tom Seaver, used Cybex equipment in their athletic training programs.
