Pulse kit in demand

Barnsley Premier Leisure (BPL) has expanded its fitness suite at Barnsley Metrodome Leisure Complex due to the success of a refurbishment in 2009.

Since installing the 80 station Pulse Fitness suite three years ago - which included cardiovascular, resistance, freeweights and Pulse SmartCentre - BPL has reported a 95 per cent increase in membership. Following the recent introduction of another 40 pieces of Pulse equipment, membership has risen a further 25 per cent.

In a further development, Kingston Maurward College in Dorchester, Dorset awarded Pulse a contract to supply more than £50,000-worth of fitness equipment. The project features 20 stations of the company's latest cv Fusion line and its Evolve strength range.

The new fitness provision has allowed the college to expand its portfolio by providing new health and fitness qualifications.
