Fitness Equipment Safety
Fitness Equipment Safety! We cannot stress this point enough when choosing an outdoor fitness park for your location. Unlike other outdoor fitness companies who have had their equipment removed from city parks across the country due to safety and liability issues, we seek to obtain the highest degree of safety for users of our products. Our manufacturing partner StayFIT Systems continuously review and redesign all of its’ equipment line. We believe safety comes first and foremost in all the products we represent and sell.
- StayFit equipment are designed to accommodate users of all fitness levels. The equipment and signage are developed to allow easy and safe functionality.
- We provide instructional decals on each piece of equipment for safe usage, and caution decals to alert users of potentials hazards. These decals are American Society of Testing Materials (AMST) compliant.
- All assemble hardware is covered to prevent entanglement of loose clothes and long hair
Our standing use products have been redesigned with non-slip footholds. To further protect our customers, we ensure that all openings are sealed and there are no head entrapment risks as defined by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). We constantly seek feedback from users and representatives to ensure the fitness equipment safety of all our products.

Outdoor Fitness Equipment Installation
Every StayFIT Bodyweight+ outdoor fitness system comes with a complete set of installation instructions and drawings. The designated fitness area needs to have adequate space for the equipment, plus the recommended safe-use zone surrounding it. There should be a minimum of 36” around equipment (from outer edge of fitness system) that is free from any obstacles or obstructions.
StayFIT equipment is simple to install – all of the fitness activities are bolted on using pre-drilled holes after the vertical posts are secured.
The vertical support posts are buried 30” deep using concrete (3-4 bags of 60” premix per hole) – they can also be installed using a surface mount plate. The vertical support posts are built to accommodate the particular type of resilient fall surface being used under the equipment, such as rubber tile or play chips.
Maintenance is minimal as there are no moving parts to wear out or break; however, general maintenance and bi-monthly safety checks for loose or worn components is recommended.
Outdoor Fitness Equipment Maintenance
StayFIT equipment is manufactured and designed for years of trouble-free use, but it may be necessary to do a weekly safety inspection to insure the equipment is safe to use. The inspection needs to include, but is not limited to, the following:
– Make sure all the vertical posts and equipment fastening bolts are tight and secure.
– Ensure there are no loose or damaged parts.
– Cushioning ground cover should be in good condition and the proper depth.
– Check for rocks, glass or anything that could be dangerous to the user in the area under and around the equipment.
