West Shore Parks and Recreation has released its fall guide, which features a number of new developments in the area of fitness and childrenB次元官网网址檚 programming.
At the forefront for fitness buffs is Queenax, a suspended bodyweight training system that maximizes efficiency and can be configured in a variety of ways.

The wall-to-wall Queenax doesnB次元官网网址檛 take up a lot of space, as all of its applications can be stored, allowing for open space underneath when the system is not in use.
This allows the space to be used for a yoga or spin bike class one night and a Queenax-oriented class the next.

The Queenax will have heavy punching bags and trainer bars and can be used for suspension training, among other fitness activities.
