THE ELDERLY Through its GP referral scheme, North Country Leisure in Penrith is targeting elderly people with psychological and physical illnesses. Life Fitness’ functional training rig,


the SYNRGY360s, is central to the programme, as it combines total body dynamic exercises that can be modifi ed to the user’s ability.

TRX and resistance bands, meanwhile, allow for simple bodyweight exercises, with the individual able to adjust the resistance to a suitable level. The GP referral programmes


at North Country Leisure use SYNRGY360s in conjunction with other gym kit. “The SYNRGY360s allows us to offer a range of alternative exercises which are functional, and which help us keep the individual’s programme interesting and challenging,” says club manager Tim Bestford. The programme has seen good

Plans are now underway to devise programmes for children and young people, which will also use the SYNRGY360s. All of the team working on the


programme are qualifi ed to at least Level 3 and were specifi cally trained for the SYNRGY360s by Life Fitness Academy master trainers. The team is also trained in GP referral and cardiac rehabilitation. ●
