Plans for the next 12 months
Escape Fitness continues to expand the Octagon frame range and its versatile attachments, ensuring greater adaptability in functional training. The 'Load' range is growing after its successful launch, redefining strength training by integrating plate-loaded machines with advanced variable resistance technology. A key focus is bringing more manufacturing to the UK, including the production of Octagon frames.

Additionally, the company is reinforcing its commitment to sustainability by further developing the Evergreen range, an eco-friendly line manufactured in the UK. These innovations solidify Escape Fitness' position as a leader in cutting-edge, sustainable, and performance-driven gym equipment.
Testimonial
“'Load' takes strength training to a new level, providing a training experience that is a truly unique concept allowing customers to stand, using the strength stations with resistance bands and weight plates. This setup provides a highly effective full body training experience, allowing members to lift, push, and pull with controlled resistance that challenges traditional strength workouts.

"This is the first time this level of adaptable, resistance-based strength training has been integrated into a group studio setting, bridging the gap between functional strength and high-intensity circuit training. 'Load' has allowed us to expand our programming potential. Its versatility is helping us develop new sessions that cater to both total strength development and performance-based training, ensuring our offering continues to evolve to meet customer demand.

"Working with Escape Fitness throughout the design and installation process has been a fantastic experience. Their attention to detail and expertise helped us integrate 'Load' in a way that enhances both functionality and member experience, providing a turnkey solution and setting a new benchmark for group strength training.”


– Kieron Vango, CEO, Inverclyde Leisure
Testimonial
“From the initial planning stages to the final installation, working with the Escape Fitness team on the transformation of our Addlestone training space has showcased their creativity, professionalism and a deep understanding of our vision.

"The team didn’t just provide equipment—they designed and delivered an entire training environment that perfectly addressed our brief and matched the needs of our personal trainers and members.

"The standout design and tailored solutions have not only enhanced our gym’s aesthetic appeal but also elevated the training experience for our members.”

– JP, general manager, Snap Fitness, Addlestone
Testimonial
"The team at SoCal are really excited to have been the first in the world to offer 'Load' to their community. The concept brings a whole new dimension to athletic strength training. The standing position means every muscle is engaged in every movement, accelerating the training effect, whilst the integration of resistance bands improves precision and cuts down on transition times.

“Working with Escape is always a great experience. The equipment not only engineered to deliver a faultless training experience, it is also extremely robust. We have some of California’s biggest, most experienced, powerlifters using our facility and the Escape equipment is more than up to the job.”


– Jason Talyor, VP of facilities.
