Golf Open hotel unveils Life Fitness gym upgrade
As the 145th Open Championship kicks off at Royal Troon golf course today (14 July), players staying at the Marine Hotel overlooking the 18th green can keep themselves in excellent shape thanks to a new gym install from Life Fitness.
Life Fitness has refurbished the Bodysense Leisure Club & Spa the iconic hotel in Troon, South Ayrshire, as part of a £130,000 investment. The gym and fitness suite has been fitted with 14 stations from Life’s Discover SE Cardio range including upright Lifecycle bikes, PowerMill Climbers, FlexStrider Variable-Stride Trainers, along with Insignia Series selectorised strength equipment and HD Elite Power Rack and Lifting Platform.
“I have worked with various equipment manufacturers over the past seven years and I have always found Life Fitness equipment to be reliable and easily maintained,” said Ryan Johnson, leisure manager at the Marine Hotel.
“It has been a great experience to work with Life Fitness who have designed a gym that has exceeded our expectations. The old gym was a great offering for a hotel leisure club but the new gym is more than worthy of the four stars we pride ourselves on.”
In addition to the gym and fitness suite, Bodysense Leisure Club & Spa offers a heated indoor swimming pool, sauna, steamroom, Jacuzzi, spa pool and squash courts to hotel guests and members.
The 145th Open Championship runs from 14-17 July, with spectators eagerly anticipating a battle for glory between golf's top stars such as Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth.
