TRANSCRIPT

New MembersIndoorwalking is a reason-able investment which provides a new successful service; it is not about renew-ing material but increasing the passion and emotion of users for a new type of group workout.

Campaigns to attract new members using Indoorwalk-ing as a new service are very successful.

The most used cardiovascular machines in a fitness centre are cross-trainers and treadmills, because of their natural upright position.

The treadmill is mainly used to walk, in general for preventing the impact sensation.

Unfortunately, there are several cardio workouts which cannot be completed in the time and impact necessary for obtaining real results.

The effectiveness of a dynamic low-impact program with a trainer and music is high, because it motivates users, especially those who are not in a good physical condition.

Customer loyaltyMost of the members, who stop training, leave the fit-ness centres without having obtained the desired results. Both controlling weight and feeling more energetic, are the most common goals. Indoorwalking has a direct effect in these objectives; club users who “get hooked” to the program are people who do not really like cardio-training machines or individual strength machines.

Indoorwalking improves re-tention ratios of the centre in the medium and long term.

TrafficWhen it is necessary to manage the traffic of users in the centre, Indoorwalking is an excellent tool.

During the busiest times of the day.

To increase the interest in the morning schedules.

For schedules in the middle of the day with 30-minute short sessions.

ImageUsually it is important to distinguish the center from others with innovative programs, which maintain a good image of the activities supply. Centers incorporating indoorwalking observe that a new “phenomenon” occurs thanks to the fanatic users of the program.

Indoorwalking is the first group cardio workout program with music support and run on Indoorwalkers ever presented to the fitness industry. The Indoorwalker is a purpose built cross-trainer which incorporates a smooth and nice motion due to a new and revolutionary inertia system. The Indoorwalker simulates the walking movement at different paces and a variety of profiles and routes which in combination with music and a certified instructor will lead the us-ers through a successful cardiovascular fitness session.

A new way of cardiovascular workoutIndoorwalking original Origin

The creation and development of Indoorwalking occurred some years ago as a result of critically observing cardiovascular workouts in fitness centres.

Education is an essential requirement for incorporating the indoorwalking program. This is the reason all the necessary facilities are available. Indoorwalking has created an innovative program; the nature of movements, different positions and grasps, etc. makes the training a new challenge for professionals.

In order to be a certified as an Indoorwalking Trainer, the professional must complete a series of sessions and studies, including:

Walking technique

Music for indoorwalking

Stress physiology, special adaptations

Biomechanics of grips and positions

Comprehensive safety

Design of sessions and goals

Marketing

Etc.

Become an InstructorGet your certification.

Indoorwalking and music

Review different kinds of music and the possibilities of a workout between 40 and 100 steps per minute. This credit shall enable the trainer to successfully edit sessions and manage the music.

Indoorwalking develops programs or credits to keep the trainers updated, to increase their knowledge on Indoorwalking and to instruct them on all types of users demanding cardiovascular health in a club. In this way, the trainer motivates itself and the club can offer new programs, through which attracting and retaining members is possible.

Credits:

Biomechanics and in-doorwalking technique

Correcting users’ technical ex-ecution requires trainers with sound knowledge in biome-chanics. With this credit the trainer will have all the tools to prevent mistakes and to document explanations for all the program movements and positions.

Areas of cardiovascular training

Indoorwalking is not a new fitness formula. It is a method of cardiovascular training. The areas of train-ing are defined step by step. With this credit the trainer will increase its knowledge of the possibilities within each training session.

Sessions Programming and Planning

The magic of planning a session includes walking at various paces and distances, on different intensities, positions and emotions. This credit is very motivating to increase the knowledge of the program.

Continuous training Indoorwalking is a program developed in three levels:

CertificateTo obtain the Certification Level, it is necessary to complete the official certification course. It is obtained in two ways: courses in company (in the centre) or certification official examination.

Progression To obtain the progression level it is necessary to credit 100 sessions and to have completed successfully a continuous training course.

MasterThe Master level requires the trainer to credit 2 years of development of a program in a centre and to have completed successfully 3 continuous training courses.

Indoorwalker New Premium Highly specialized equipment.

New regulation of polesPoles are regulated in both height and rotation level. In the program, this is an essential qual-ity feature to get maximum impact in the upper body and a truly customized training. The latest system includes a rotator knob, which is intuitive, fast, consistent and adjustable from the training position.

Minimum separation of the structureIn order to facilitate the maximum accessibility amongst the Indoorwalkers and to maximize the available space, the separation of the structure is the minimum possible yet guaranteeing perfect balance and the best performance of the set of inertias.

Regulation of handlebars in height and proximityCustomization of an Indoorwalking session is essential, so the handlebar can be regulated for different types of users (in terms of height and transversal level). The Indoorwalker uses a revo-lutionary system that simply allows the regulation with micro adjustments.

Inertia equilibriumThe Indoorwalker sets of inertias and weights have been designed to allow a nice sensation during the workout session and to comply with all the biomechanical requirements; all this has made Indoorwalking a great success.

Infomanagement systemThe new Info-management system has all the elements that allow a real and customized con-trol and management of data during walks or training sessions.

A design for anyoneThe elegant combination of black and chrome colours, unlike red, yellow or orange, are especially accepted by the users who are looking for less youthful yet more integrating fitness workout.

Indoorwalking exclusive Room Differentiate the centre by creating new spacesAn exclusive room for Indoorwalking generates a distinguished and extraordinary effect.

Around 3 to 6 daily classes mean a great return of investment on space and the users appreci-ate the new service. With the virtual Indoorwalking trainer, a combination of real sessions and virtual sessions can be a very profitable formula.

Cardiogroup, Indoorcycling-indoorwalking Room Double cardiogroup in the same roomCenters with a large room for Indoorcycling can incorporate Indoorwalking in the same space. In this way the centre takes advantage of the facilities already available doubling the usage.

In the Cardio Room A Walkers club within the club Fitness and cardio rooms are the main space in a fitness club. Placing Indoorwalking in the car-dio or fitness room permits the design of an Indoorwalking corner which provides a dynamic and working environment during the classes. When a session is over, the Indoorwalker multi-plies the offer of the more demanded cardio equipment.

Combined circuit Maximum versatility in a combined circuitIn this option, a strength equipment circuit is completed merging Indoorwalkers as cardio or warm-up stations. It is placed in fitness rooms, being part of a circuit which allows multiple uses.

Indoorwalking sessions with a central indoorwalker.

Cardio+strength circuit sessions.

Individual-use equipment in the room when there are no sessions.

Multifunctional room or group-classes studio Easy to move equipmentPlacing Indoorwalking in a Studio Room where the Indoorwalkers are moved in for classes and later moved out, is a hit in many clubs. Moving around an Indoorwalker is smooth and easy for anyone.

Space One of the first decisions to make is the placement of the Indoorwalking program. Space is a very precious resource at any fitness centre. It has to give the maximum return on use and occupation during the day. The versatility and mobility of the Indoorwalkers facilitates their re-location according to each type of centre.
