Functional fitness, group training, wearable technology, and high-intensity interval training have been leading in the polls when it comes to the top trends in the fitness industry in recent years. In addition, Purdue students have voiced the desire for a tech inspired fitness space, similar to CrossFit, Orange Theory andĀ F45. To meet this need, Purdue Recreation & Wellness is converting five underutilized racquetball courts totaling 4000 sq. ft. of space (40 x 20 x 20 or 800 sq. ft. each) into a new functional fitness space. This new space will house various features; some of which may include turf, olympic lifting platforms, a fitness rig to allow for pull-ups, barbell squats, etc. and various functional equipment such as sleds, tires, plyometric boxes, kettlebells, medballs, battle ropes, and TRX straps. In addition, technology in the form of wearable tech and projected biofeedback on TVs will also be incorporated into this functional fitness space.
