Core Health & Fitness celebrates opening of Fit20 Capitan Arenas in Barcelona

19 May 2023
Fit20 has opened its flagship studio in Barcelona, Spai / Core Health & Fitness
On the 2nd of May Fit20 opened its flagship studio in Barcelona, Spain. Located in Santa Amèlia, in the Sarrià neighborhood, the Fit20 flagship studio welcomed new clients eager to start the Fit20 unique training programme. As the exclusive global supplier for Fit20, Core Health & Fitness Core supplies Nautilus One machines for this unique fitness offering.

Fit20 is an innovative and unique science-based training method. Fit20 promotes high-intensity training once a week for 20 minutes (under PT supervision) using intensity and tempo to engage and stimulate all the 4 different muscle fibre types to produce a more intense workout, which promotes "supercompensation" during rest periods where muscles get stronger, and your entire body is stimulated to function better.

Fit20 Master Trainer, Jan Sistare, leads the team to offer a comprehensive fitness experience that is focused on individual needs for the most benefit in just 20 minutes. Training is by appointment with a personal trainer and uses Core Health & Fitness’s unique stretch range and Nautilus One machines, which are set to a high resistance and are moved at a slow speed. Studios are cooled (17 C) and allow you to workout in everyday clothes, which is hassle-free and more beneficial in terms of time.

“More than 24 introductory training sessions have been booked and scheduled before opening day”, shares Isidre Sistare, Core Health & Fitness Senior Distributor Manager, Mediterranean and Africa. Jason Hill, Senior Key Account Manager EMEA at Core Health & Fitness, is thrilled to see the immediate success of Fit20 Barcelona studio outfitted with top-quality Nautilus ONE equipment, with special thanks to Etenon for an excellent equipment install.

Plans for the next 12 months
We are celebrating StairMaster’s 40th anniversary and launching the StairMaster 4G. Designed to fit perfectly into hospitality and multihousing training centres, the 4G is the StairMaster solution when size matters!

Star Trac launches the Virtual Bike, the most versatile bike, giving the rider an unlimited experience. The Virtual Bike is purpose-built to withstand the rigours of a commercial cardio floor and meet the needs of non-staffed vertical market spaces such as hospitality and multi-housing amenity centres.

Core offers more customisation options with Throwdown rigs that are built-to-fit for a standout piece that optimises space. The total-body workout on the HIIT Ski and HIIT Rower brings the natural mobility of sport to the training zone.

Together with our partners, we create the best fitness offerings with the most recognised brands worldwide.

Testimonial
“We chose Core Health & Fitness for several reasons, the main one was that we were able to get the majority of the equipment we wanted from one place at a competitive price.

The Star Trac and Stairmaster brands have been big favourites of our members in our Taunton gym so we were keen to make them a central part of our new gym in Plymouth.

Schwinn was a natural choice for our indoor bikes and we’ve been really pleased with the AC Power in our classes.

Throwdown became available as we were looking to equip our functional areas, we took a gamble on the rigs and it paid off. Our HIIT classes and functional areas have the rigs as a central focus providing multiple options for each workout.

As a gym we have a strength and resistance focus so choosing the right plate loaded equipment was really important, we were really impressed by the focus that Nautilus places on the smooth and intuitive way each piece of equipment functions so we bought most of the range! We are proud to be a Nautilus Trusted Strength Centre and our members are really enjoying the kit.”
