HIT HUB – the functional frame to unleash the athlete in everyone

Escape Fitness has launched an innovative, space efficient frame-based solution for functional training in boutiques, studios and gyms looking to offer challenge, community, novelty and results to their experience-seeking member bases.

The HIT HUB is a fully stocked workout station with numerous functional training possibilities, storage and options to expand for athletes of all levels. As a single station or expanded with additional modules, the HIT HUB’s functionality makes it the versatile boutique solution with multiple training applications. Also launching this spring are equipment attachments to the HIT HUB and other Octagon frames and they include:

    HIT BOARD – With multiple configurations for incline, decline or flat workouts, this integrated adjustable bench also benefits spaces with its much smaller storage footprint, and is perfect for abdominal conditioning, strength training or as a step platform.
    WOD RINGS – The perfect addition to any Escape frame, these gymnastic rings offer a range of exercises from beginner to expert that improve flexibility and strengthen the whole body; a fundamental training tool every club should have.
    PLYO FIVE – The hottest new tool in plyometric training, five boxes in one means variable training options with new step heights for a stable workout that will challenge any ability.
    THE HOLSTER – This vertical dumbbell rack fixes to any Octagon frame leg for convenient storage. It saves on space and improves safety by removing equipment clutter.
    BOX SOX – Quick, easy and convenient, the BOX SOX remove the need for time consuming hand wraps when combat training, ensuring comfort, support and hygiene while working out.
