The challenge:
Wrexham University sought to establish a cutting-edge biomechanics laboratory and strength & conditioning (S&C) space that would support the educational and training needs of students, athletes, and researchers.
The solution:
Origin Fitness worked closely with Wrexham University to design a bespoke biomechanics laboratory and S&C space. The design process began with a thorough consultation to understand the specific needs of the university, followed by the creation of a visual proposal that outlined the layout and equipment selection.
To meet the diverse requirements of the lab, Origin Fitness supplied a range of high-quality equipment that was carefully chosen to support both biomechanical research and athletic training.
Essential for strength training and conditioning, Origin Performance Series Half Racks were equipped with barbells, weight plates, and bumper plates to allow for versatile workouts.
40mm High Impact Tiles were installed with a compatible Corner Ramp CAP System along with an integrated sprint track, providing a safe and durable surface for high-intensity training and sprint technique drills. The track also facilitates biomechanical analysis using the lab's motion capture systems.
The lab was equipped with state-of-the-art biomechanical analysis equipment, including a motion capture system, to enable precise assessment of sprint performance and other athletic movements.
The installation of the gym and lab equipment was executed with efficiency and precision. The majority of the setup was completed within a day, with final adjustments and tweaks made shortly thereafter.
Origin Fitness's flexibility during the installation process ensured that any last-minute changes were smoothly integrated, resulting in a facility that perfectly matched the university's needs.
The outcome:
The new biomechanics laboratory and S&C space at Wrexham University have become a vital resource for students, athletes, and researchers. The combination of advanced biomechanical tools and versatile training equipment has enhanced the university's ability to conduct high-level research and provide top-tier training facilities.
The space supports a wide range of activities, from biomechanical analysis and sprint technique refinement to strength and conditioning programs for athletes. The successful integration of these resources has not only enriched the academic experience but also provided a platform for developing athletic talent within the university.
