American Fitness Targets High Growth CrossFit and other Functional Cross Training Programs with Specialized Fitness …

American Fitness has seen rapid growth in demand for fitness equipment used in interval and functional cross training programs. Popular programs, such as CrossFit, are increasingly being followed by athletes and professionals requiring high levels of fitness training, as well as consumers looking to get fit and lose weight quickly and efficiently. American Fitness has expanded its selection of exercise equipment most commonly used in these fitness training programs.

Portland, OR (PRWEB) February 28, 2012

Cross training has many benefits, from total body conditioning to weight loss. Elite athletes, bodybuilders, and highly trained professionals follow this type of workout routine to optimize performance and push to new levels. When exercises are done repeatedly with the same set of muscles and fitness equipment, the body eventually adjusts, resulting in smaller and smaller gains in strength and fitness. Cross training helps balance muscle groups, breaking through plateaus and minimizing injuries. CrossFit is a high intensity form of interval training that has become popular among all types of people for quickly and efficiently burning fat and building muscle. Exercises are focused on bodyweight training, basic gymnastics, and weightlifting to improve strength, stamina, flexibility, and cardiovascular health.

We have seen a rapid increase in the demand for fitness equipment such as power racks, kettlebells, and chin up bars, which are being used as part of an interval or functional cross training program, said Ron Thompson, President of American Fitness. This is especially true for many of our high performance customers, such as military, police, and fire service. These customers are looking to achieve the best possible fitness results in the shortest amount of time. We are pleased to be able to support them in these efforts with customized fitness packages and quality, individual equipment selections.

Typical bodyweight exercises in a cross training routine are squats, lunges, push-ups, and pull-ups. American Fitness offers equipment to support these types of exercises, including barbells, power racks, bumper plates, plyometric boxes, chin-up bars, and functional bodyweight cross trainers. For strength training, a full range of free weights, including dumbbells, kettlebells, and medicine balls can be found at AmericanFitness.net.
