AN OUTDOOR WORKOUT SPACE

Outdoor Fitness Equipment at Studio City Rec Center

Studio City - The City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, along with Councilmember Paul Krekorian (CD 2), Park Advisory Members and local residents, dedicated new Outdoor Fitness Equipment at Studio City Recreation Center on Saturday, October 9, 2010.

The multi-station outdoor fitness equipment includes apparatuses to develop the lower, upper and core body areas, and improving cardiovascular health. The fitness equipment is easy-to-use and is designed to be durable, vandal resistant and used in various configurations. The equipment uses the body's mass for resistance instead of a weighted system, which allows the equipment to be used by people of all ages and stages of physical fitness, with no concern of injury.

The new fitness equipment was purchased from Greenfield Sport Parks, Inc. of Santa Ana and installed by Department of Recreation and Parks Citywide Construction Forces. The $65,000 addition was funded by developer fees.

Studio City Recreation Center is located at 12621 Rye Street in Studio City 91604. For more information on this location, visit our website at http://www.laparks.org/ or call (213) 202-2700.
