PSLT – Kitted out

PSLT is working with Rise Fitness to deliver the kit for the roll-out of its new gym chain


Rise Fitness is growing its presence in the fitness world with gyms dedicated to busier areas of towns and cities.

To keep up with the high number of members that have chosen Rise as their gym, the team wanted to install British-made, future-proofed high-quality gym equipment.

Rise Fitness approached PSLT after reviewing the quality of equipment and short lead times in terms of the supply of its strength and plate-loaded kit and quickly started the process of integrating the brand into its floor space.

A powerful collaboration
Core Gym Equipment from PSLT can now be seen in all Rise Fitness gyms across the country, and with an expanding range of British-design and manufactured equipment, Rise has been keen to add more to its sites.

Fitness isn’t just about strength and with the growing number of athletes training at Rise Fitness sites – one of which is located at the football grounds in Telford, Shropshire – PSLT was able to provide all CV and functional training equipment from its Core Gym Equipment line to ensure people at every level of fitness can train in all areas of the gym.

Rise Fitness made it clear to the PSLT team that finish-quality, durability and a competitive price point were key to the purchase of equipment for their first gym and now PSLT and Rise are working together on the fifth location and have built a great relationship for future new sites for the provison of kit from the Core Gym Equipment line.

Tom Grimshaw from Rise Fitness says: “We first took delivery of our plate-loaded kit two years ago when we kitted out our fourth gym.

“Having used better-known suppliers for years, we’ve been pleasantly surprised and impressed with the quality of the kit. We wouldn’t use anything else now as we look to grow our stable of gyms.

Loved by members
“Our members love the kit, it’s hard-wearing, extremely user-friendly, easy to clean, it looks seriously impressive and most importantly for a gym owner, it’s very reasonably priced.

“We’re continually upgrading our kit to Core Gym Equipment and looking at ways to fit extra kit onto the gym floor.”
