Life Fitness G5 Cable Motion Gym
Date Published: 5/9/05
The G5 Cable Motion Gym from Life Fitness is a new home gym that lets users do hundreds of different exercises with "functional strength training" in mind. More than a catchphrase, functional strength training means doing exercises to improve movements specific to work, tasks, sports, or everyday activities, such as lifting something heavy onto a shelf, hoisting luggage into an overhead bin, or swinging a golf club or tennis racket. Unique to the G5 is the ability to move the bench out of the way and perform exercises with other core stabilization apparatus, such as a stability ball or balance board. No other home gym lets you do this. Another feature is that it has Cable Motion technology, which allows for unrestricted, user-defined paths of motion, such as free weights. These two things give exercisers exceptional variety for doing functional strength training. The Life Fitness G5 provides the most targeted of workouts.
