  • How to Add Recovery Programming to Your Fitness Center Amenity Offering

    recovery program for fitness centersThe rise of recovery programs and its popularity is exciting for fitness industry experts. For so long, trainers have been sharing with clients the importance of caring for your body, stretching, taking rest days and overall recovering from the good stress we put on our bodies through exercise, movement and fitness. Recovery has so many benefits for your body including:

    • Reducing lactic acid buildup in muscles
    • Flushes toxins out of the body
    • Keeps muscles pliable and flexible, which is extremely important as you age
    • Reduces soreness from exercise
    • Increases blood flow

    Recovery helps  members to feel good, stay injury free and remain consistent with an exercise routine. Recovery spaces are easy to add to your fitness center facility, no matter the space, and adds exceptional value to your workplace wellness amenity. 

    re:store lab, active's branded recovery program for fitness centers

    Active Wellness introduced Re: Store Lab which provides members the opportunity to work with personal recovery tools in a relaxing and guided environment. Re:Store Lab includes recovery therapy, percussion devices, massage protocols, stretching techniques and more.

    The Re:Store Lab can be built out in 500 sq. ft. or less to provide your members a dedicated space to reset, recover and restore. The Active team suggests a closed-off and dedicated space, but it does not have to be based on your current facility circumstances.

    There are many tools and device options to choose from when building a recovery space, but a few of our preferred pieces include:

    • Normatec Boots + Chairs
    • Hypervolt
    • Hypersphere / Lacrosse Balls
    • Vyper / Foam Rollers
    • Yoga Mats
    • Stretch /Resistance Bands

    Recruiting knowledgeable staff to oversee your recovery space is also key for the safety and success of your program. We recommend product education and training for your staff.  Most vendors have education on their products and training for the staff so make sure you request this added support.

    There are a number of benefits for both the member and fitness center to integrate a recovery program into your offerings. Recovery programs have a literal ‘feel good’ sense to them. This speaks to more than just your consistent everyday gym goers too. This opens up an opportunity for you to attract potential members who would never consider joining a fitness center before. 

    The physical and psychological benefits of adding a recovery day or by adding a few minutes of recovery programming to the end of a workout has proven to bring more overall joy to a workout routine, and it provides a faster recovery period between workouts. What does this means for your members long term? More consistent workouts, less injuries and more smiling faces. 

    There are several ways you can monetize your recovery program. It can be added as a stand-alone service with the help of the fitness professional, or as a DIY product for member use. You can offer an ala carte item to your personal training sessions or as a membership add-on for recurring monthly usage. Any of these options is sure to create a new line of revenue with very little footprint required. 

    A recovery space can be built out in 500 sq. ft. or less to provide your members with a dedicated space to reset, recover and rejuvenate. Learn more about the benefits of recovery and Re:Store here. Contact us today to let us help you design your recovery space.
