Lexington Gym

When designing a basement gym, one of the basic mistakes is putting dark rubber matting down that eats the light.  
In this Lexington basement remodel, we used Ecore Bounce2 gym flooring, stacked with a forgiving rubber underlayment and a damage-resistant top layer.  It looks so good that they put it in the whole basement. 

Some Hudson steel strength and pro-style dumbbells and a [top level True Fitness treadmill](https://shop.connectfit.com/collections/treadmills/products/true-fitness-performance-800-treadmill-2023-24), and we get a clean, bright and super functional space.

Brookline Hoist/Hudson Basement

This client, Scott, has been working with us for over a decade, but he's really got a commercial Level Hoist Fitness Gym in his basement, including the [Hoist Cable cross](https://shop.connectfit.com/products/hoist-cmd-6180-cable-crossover?_pos=1&_sid=5fcb7a2d2&_ss=r), [Leg Ext/Curl](https://shop.connectfit.com/products/hoist-hd-3400-leg-extension-leg-curl?_pos=1&_sid=92cbbb612&_ss=r), and the ever popular [Hudson Miami Gym](https://shop.connectfit.com/products/miami-super-gym?_pos=1&_sid=11fbea2bd&_ss=r).

 

Beverly on the Water

 

This space was done with SaltsmanBrenzel Builders, where we had a nice space overlooking the water.  
They planned on some serious lifting, so we went with Ecore Rally in a Maroon color. This is in a number of NFL training rooms, so it can handle droppage and eats the noise.  Great for the joints as well.
