Titans Gym has just undergone the biggest upgrade since opening in 2001!

We have replaced every single one of our old weights training machines with top of the line, completely custom built professional bodybuilding equipment. Totalling 50 pieces of kit we are now without doubt the best equipped gym on Merseyside!

Totalling a value of £60,000.00 our upgrade doesn't just stop with equipment. The heavy weights training area has tripled in size due to a huge building project that has taken place inside the gym. With almost no walls to get in the way and interrupt flow between machines we have opened up our layout massively.

In total there are now 50 pieces of equipment to train with, including 40 pieces of custom built professional body building equipment. These range from your basic adjustable benches and dumbbells to an extravagantly complex decline level bench press and isolating lever mid-back row.

All of our cable and stack loaded machines now have weight stacks appropriate for their use. We have a triceps station that goes up to 75 kilos and a seated row that reaches 100 kilos!

This brochure will take you through the whole upgrade process start to finish. It includes before and after photographs and photographic detail of all of the building and installation work that has been going on here since November 2007. You will see by the end exactly how good our new kit is and exactly why we now claim the title of

THE BEST EQUIPPED GYM ON MERSEYSIDE!

PHASE 1 Preparation & demo

Before any building work could start we had to move all of our equipment into a small space. We were able to do this through the removal of a wall that had long stood in the way of good gym flow. Once all of the machines has been moved (sacrificing only the hyper-extension) we were able to prepare the middle and lower weights rooms for demolition!

With the equipment moved into the upper weights area and the cardio room we were able to start the demolitions. You can see above the amount of work involved in taking out the double joisted suspended floor. The floor was put in incredibly strongly so that it would withstand the use of the weights on it. Unfortunately this made is hard to remove!

With everything out of the way it was time to get the walls down. We broke into the back of the gym and made use of half of the boxing room.

We have kept two bags up and have completely isolated the bag room from the rest of the gym for privacy. We still have a sprung floor and professional punch bags for use!

Removing these walls gave us the opportunity to triple the amount of room for heavy weights and dumbbells. Improving the layout into a much larger area will not only allow us to fit in more machines but it allows every trainer more room to move around.

PHASE 2 Concrete floor

With the concrete floor down the re-decoration could begin in ernest. The whole gym, both the new lower weights room and the existing upper weights room have been in need of a coat of paint for a long time. Since the whole gym was closed for three full days while the equipment was delivered and installed we took this opportunity to start the decoration around everywhere else.

Putting the carpet down made all the difference. The new lower weights area is now ready to receive the new equipment!

The concrete floor is solid enough to take very heavy weights and the decor is much improved compared to what we had previously. There is lots of room on the walls for mirrors and the bottom of the walls will soon also be chequer-plated to make them resistant to having weights leaned against them.

PHASE 3 Equipment installationMost of the new lever equipment is delivered in pieces. Manufactured, delivered and assembled by Powerzone we have the most professional body building kit available, all custom made for Titans Gym.

The equipment itself has all been custom made from scratch, on many machines based on our specifications. Every piece is brand new and specifically intended for use by professional body builders.

So now, after two months of work and £60,000.00 spent, the gym is ready! Shown above is the lower weights room with the lever machines. To the right is the new heavy lifting and dumbbell area. Our dumbbells now reach 80 kilos (170 lbs!). We have also doubled up on the most used dumbbells, so there are two pairs of each dumbbell from 12.5 kilos to 20 kilos.

In total we have 40 pieces of body building equipment and 10 pieces of cardio vascular, totalling 50 pieces. We also have the punch bag room, en-suite changing rooms and a powerful fast-tan sun shower available for members and non-members alike!
