– The Madison Area YMCA is excited to announce the installation of brand new, state-of-the-art equipment into our Fitness Center, including new cardio equipment, the Sprint 8 system, the EGYM circuit, and new strength and resistance training equipment.  

Our fitness and wellness offerings at the Madison Area YMCA are for everybody. From teens who are just beginning their fitness journeys to seniors who are looking to rediscover their passion for wellness, the YMCA’s transformed state-of-the-art facility is the perfect place to start. With a reimagined Fitness Center and the strength, performance and functional training focused Glasser Center, programs for all ages including adults and seniors, a state-of-the-art Walker D. Kirby Aquatics Center, Health and Wellness Programs and virtual fitness platform Y Wellness 24/7, everyone can Find Your Fit at the Madison Area YMCA. 

“The Madison Area YMCA is now home to both EGYM, an effective, user-friendly circuit system, as well as free-reign Life Fitness Selectorized Equipment. The unique and diverse range of equipment we now offer provides unlimited possibilities and is accessible by anyone, regardless of age and ability. We cannot wait for all our members to begin enjoying the benefits that come with our new upgraded fitness equipment,” said Madison Area YMCA Associate Health & Wellness Director Peggy Potter. 

With just a 20-minute circuit workout, the Madison Area YMCA’s new EGYM data-driven system tracks and logs fitness progress and provides detailed, personalized recommendations to increase machine weightage or intensity, constantly pushing users to reach their fitness goals.    

In addition to the benefits of EGYM, members have access to the Sprint 8 program which has been shown to improve cardiovascular endurance and enhance overall fitness in everyone from young adults to active older adults using traditional cardio equipment. Brand-new Life Fitness modern Selectorized equipment also provides the most approachable and non-intimidating resistance training option for all members, expert or novice, to optimize biomechanics.
