New Limitless Free Trainer gains IFI equipment accreditation
Two years ago Limitless Gym Equipment set out on a mission to create a multi-functional training system that was accessible by everyone. They had a vision of a machine that offered the benefits of functional training to anyone regardless of their experience level. This is when the concept of the Limitless Free Trainer (LFT) was born.
Activity Alliance (formerly English Federation of Disability Sport) is delighted to now welcome the Limitless Free Trainer onto its list of IFI accredited products.
Inclusive Features
The LFT’s main feature is its two loading arms - utilised for the majority of its exercises. Made from machined stainless steel, they are extremely durable and able to withstand massive amounts of pressure. The arms are mounted to the frame with a bearing system that allows a fluidity of movement which replicates that of a kettlebell or barbell depending on the exercise. By placing the arms at different heights a wide variety of exercises can be performed. Additional weight can be added via either a sliding mass mechanism or free weight plates.
Dawn Hughes, National Partnerships Advisor (Leisure Sector) for Activity Alliance said:
“The Limitless Free Trainer is a very versatile product with a range of accessible features. For example, the ability to perform multiple exercises on one product will appeal to people with limited mobility and those who find navigating the gym floor difficult. The ergonomically designed handles move to alleviate stress in the wrists during exercise and the sliding mass alternative for the weight plates will also support use by those with reduced hand or arm dexterity.
"Disabled people are twice as likely to be physically inactive as non-disabled people. It is therefore vital that the leisure sector and its suppliers are focused on reaching this market. Limitless Gym Equipment have worked hard to create a product with universal appeal and we look forward to working with them to help get more disabled people active!”
To increase its versatility further the LFT has been designed to incorporate battle ropes, resistance bands, stability balls and suspension training rigs. The result is a product able to adapt to new users through to elite athletes, whether it be for a fighter, bodybuilder or use in a functional circuit/WOD.
Making History
Glen Davis, CEO at Limitless Gym Equipment commented:
“Receiving IFI Equipment Accreditation has been the pinnacle of this machines achievements so far. The LFT is the only plate loaded machine ever to achieve this so naturally we were blown away when we found out. We are now pushing to get the LFT into the facilities where users will benefit from the accessibility of such a versatile machine.”
