Stop Press - Vibrating Platform Machine Trial
Just Fit is currently trialling a Vibraxis exercise machine. You’ve probably heard a lot about the benefits of introducing vibration training into your exercise routine, about how ten minutes vibration based exercise gives as much benefit as an hour of conventional resistance based exercise. Well, now you can come along and see for yourself if the hype lives up to reality.
The Vibraxis has a central axis with an oscillating plate. This means one limb moves upwards whilst the other is allowed to drop, allowing the body’s natural and functional shock absorbing system to operate. The forces are dissipated by the pelvic girdle, lumbar spine and the thorax. Vibrations felt in the head are minimal and all exercises remain functional.
This technique delivers all of the benefits of other vibration platforms while remaining true to human function.
The Vibraxis has now been installed on a trial for a four-week period and we want to know what you think of it. Gym staff will be able to show you how to use it and incorporate exercises using it into your programmes.

Just Fit Sunbed Now Avaiable To All
Just Fit has a sunbed which is available to non-members as well as members although gym members get a discount. The sunbed is an UltraSun Sunburst 4000 – the type you lie down on rather than the type you stand up in.
Sessions are available of five or ten minutes at a time or you can get a discount by booking a thirty minute or one hour course. Tanning sessions themselves are either five or ten minutes. We strongly advise those new to tanning, or with particularly fair skin, to start with five-minute sessions. However long a session you have, we recommend you leave at least forty-eight hours between sessions. Sun goggles are available and we also provide complementary tanning creams and lotions.
The machine is particularly popular with those about to go on holiday to acclimatise themselves to the sun prior to hitting the beach and with those returning from holiday to get the most out of their tan and make it last a little bit longer.

Just Fit Offers Sports Massages
Sports massage takes the centuries old techniques of massage and applies them with a greater understanding of how the human body works. The end result is a deep tissue massage developed specifically to help athletes and active people recover from soft tissue injuries.
A sports massage therapist is qualified to assess and treat soft tissue injuries and conditions and to provide advice to speed up recovery and minimise the risk of re-injury.
That said, a client does not have to be suffering from an injury to appreciate the benefits of sports massage. The relaxing effects of a massage have been known throughout human history.
Please ask at reception for pricing and availablility for bookings.
