While still under construction, SportHouse has already been
targeted for training use by an array of amateur and
professional sporting organizations, including the British
Handball Association, the Football Association, British
Weight Lifting, the England Senior Futsal Team, and
others.
"The gym at SportHouse will be used by a diverse range of
people, from adolescents to athletes, to Paralympic
competitors; and Cybex has experience working with all of
these users," noted Mark Harrop, Director of Project
Consultant HBA. "Cybex is one of the largest Inclusive
Fitness Initiative (IFI) accredited suppliers and their focus
on engineering equipment that is biomechanically correct
factored greatly in our decision to provide the best
solutions for the club."

The initial concept for the facility came from SportHouse
Managing Director/CEO Mike Stimson. He and his team visited
IHRSA (International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub
Association) in 2011 to test out equipment from all of the
major fitness equipment manufacturers. "I wanted an equipment
supplier that shared my passion for sports and my vision for
SportHouse," stated Stimson. "The Big Iron racks and lifting
platforms, treadmills, Arc Trainers, and IFI-accredited Total
Access products for the physically impaired clearly
demonstrate that Cybex understands the needs of aspiring and
performance athletes, but their complete range also allows us
to provide something for everyone, no matter what their
level."
Under the terms of the agreement, Cybex will also use
SportHouse as a designated partner for its Cybex
Research Institute, where it will run an annual series of
accredited training seminars.
