The YMCA Wellness Center promotes a positive
and memorable experience. All of our staff in the wellness center
are trained and qualified to assist you in reaching your goals.
We offer a free orientation to every member to ensure safety and
assistance in developing a workout program suited for your needs.
The orientation consists of a certified staff member instructing
you on our fourteen pieces of Strive® Smart Strength™
training equipment.
Strive® Smart Strength™ is the
most efficient and effective strength training technology that
has ever been developed. As a member you will be able to train
your whole body in less than 30 minutes. The patented adjustable-variable
resistance cam enables you to do more work in less time and get
results that you have never before been able to achieve. The Newport
County YMCA is the first facility in Rhode Island to offer this
exciting new technology.
Along with our Strive® Smart Strength™
training equipment, we have a variety of cardiovascular equipment;
Treadmills, Rowers, Lifecycles, Recumbent Lifecycles, Free Climbers,
Stairmasters, Versa-Climbers, Elliptical Trainers and Precors.
