Link Centre launches Swindon’s
‘most advanced’ gym
January’s snow probably set back many people’s new year resolution to get fi t and healthy, but Link Centre
has come up with the perfect opportunity to get back on track with a £400,000 upgrade to its gym, as well
as a fi tness studio for children, teenagers and families.
Brand new Technogym machines
have been installed in the existing
studio, each with a personal TV
screen and docking stations for iPod
and USB sticks. Two Power Plates
which send high frequency vibra-
tions through the body to accelerate
muscle activity are also available.
RPM bikes (Raw Power in Mo-
tion) bikes have been installed in
the former snooker room, which
will also become a youth and fam-
ily fi tness space. A wireless dance
