because it will typically cost hundreds of dollars per year to use similar equipment at for-profit gyms.
Hundreds of residents visit busy parks like Don Knabe or Adventure Parks each week, and many of them visit solely to work out on the fitness zones. These zones are just one aspect of the free exercise options park visitors now have with the increase in new fitness zones throughout the department. Visitors can now walk the perimeter of the park, utilize workout equipment from the fitness zones and clock in nearly 1.5 miles in cardio, all while outdoors.
One of the most exciting facts about the fitness zone equipment is that it is free to the community for ages 14 and up, provides healthy tips and exercise information in multiple languages including Spanish and English and offers moderate to high impact resistance exercise for all fitness levels to enjoy, especially those with physical challenges.
The ability to get healthy in your local park is win for the entire community.
