We’re springing into action by completing revitalizing our weight equipment. MBS has always been on the cutting edge of the fitness industry, so we’re bringing to Boca the latest in weight training technology.

It has always been our mission at Michael's Body Scenes to create the best fitness experience around. Remaining focused on continual improvement has been essential to our survival in a highly competitive marketplace. Our goal is to combine a success oriented atmosphere with state of the art programming and equipment to create a positive environment where members can reach their individual fitness goals.

Improving in this industry means staying on the cutting edge when it comes to equipment and programming. Our outstanding group exercise program is an excellent example of this club’s commitment to being the best. We have always been, and will continue to be, well ahead of the competition in offering the most current, innovative, and exciting classes available. We apply this process of improvement to everything we do. Not long ago we became one of the first clubs to offer interactive entertainment in our cardio area including Internet access. In addition we now offer all of the latest training techniques including functional and core training equipment.

We are very exited about a new generation of strength equipment to be installed that will create the most up-to-date weight room in the area. Even our newest competition cannot claim a more current or technologically advanced line-up. Some of the pieces have just been introduced as recently as this past December and no one else in the area has them.

Our new equipment will be extremely user friendly and specially designed to ensure ease of use and proper body alignment.

For those in the know, the selectorized equipment is made by LifeFitness, a recognized leader in the industry. We’ve chosen select pieces of equipment from their Signature Series and their Pro 2 SE line of strength training equipment.

While our “old” equipment is still top-of-the-line for many gyms, we think you’ll find the new pieces much easier to use. It will be easier to change seat position, resistance and increase or decrease range of motion.

Some of the features of the Signature Series include:

The following Signature Series pieces have been selected:

The Pro 2 SE Series is user friendly and made tough with exceptional biomechanics. The easy to use features have been designed with the member in mind. These feature include:

We have chosen the following pieces to round out our selectorized area:

The $100,000 facelift includes Hammer Strength equipment--the #1 brand of plate loaded equipment in the world with the most advanced strength training technologies in the industry.

The plate loaded selections from the Hammer Strength line are:

 Chest Press & Shoulder Press: These two pieces allow the user to move both arms at the same time, at one time, alternating, or with different weights for each.

Pullover: Motion technology pioneered by Hammer Strength has been applied to analyze and simulate the natural patterns of the body in motion.

Seated Calf. As with all of their machines, this piece has been computer designed to provide the most ergonomically correct path of motion.

Along with Hammer Strength for the free weight area, we will be adding Hoist equipment—a leader in the strength industry for over 25 years. These include free weight benches, squat racks, Smith machines and leg presses that are solidly built and comfortable to use.

You’re going to love the state-of-the-art composite motion leg press that uses state-of-the-art technology to stabilize the torso and lower body to move simultaneously while performing the exercise. We’re the only gym to have this machine in the area!

Again from the Hoist line, we’re adding a completely new piece of equipment. It’s a rotary torso machine with a 180 degree of rotation to work your obliques and develop core strength.

Last but not least, we’re adding pieces from Magnum Fitness Systems for the serious athlete. The new products include cool-looking Sure-Grip Rubber Coated Olympic Plates that feature a six-hole pattern that provides three opposing handgrip positions and dumbbell racks that are attractive and sturdy.

We’re going to place all the new equipment in a very user-friendly manner so you will feel comfortable right from the start.

There are instructional placards on each piece that shows you how to use it. And of course, you can always schedule an orientation with one of our floor trainers if you’re unsure about a particular piece.

Besides all the brand new toys to play with, in we will also be upgrading the overall look of the club. We have just installed new carpet throughout and we’re resurfacing the entire strength training section of the weight room. We’re installing Everoll recycled rubber flooring that’s virtually indestructible and easy to maintain.

We truly do appreciate all our loyal members and we’re proud to revamp our weight room to better serve all of you. Getting better and having our members’ fitness and lives improve is the ultimate measure of our success. We’re always getting better so that you can, too!
