Evo Fitness opens in Cape Town
Evo Fitness Personal Training - an independent, personal training-only facility in Cape Town, South Africa - is scheduled to open this month.
Located at the Westlake Lifestyle Centre in the affluent Tokai area of the city, the 340sq m club is designed to cater for 20-30 members only.
The equipment is custom-made and is designed to be portable, so clients can be taken to the nearby beach or forest for a change of workout scenery: there's little in the way of traditional machines.
Kit includes power racks, weight plates, barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, TRX suspension systems, strength resistance bands, grappling ropes, weighted chain and vests, tyres, rubberised sledge hammers, plyometric boxes, speed chutes, agility hurdles, boxing bags, group cycling bikes and rowing machines. There's also a resident running specialist.
Evo Fitness has aligned itself with adidas with an eye to joint involvement in projects going forward.
It has also linked up with Westlake Physiotherapy to create a referral structure: the club encompasses a biokinetics office for prehab/rehab work.
"We're offering something completely different," says co-founder David Cross. "Our gym is for people who want to be more than a number, people who want to get the results they've paid for. What we're offering is accountability."
