Remanufactured Commercial Fitness Equipment: The Process

USA Fitness Direct is proud to offer the absolute best remanufactured fitness equipment available anywhere in the World.  Each piece of remanufactured commercial strength equipment, freeweight unit and cardio machine is brought to the specifications outlined by the manufacturer and, in many cases, beyond (higher mileage belts, decks, etc.).  Commercial fitness equipment by Cybex, Life Fitness, Precor, Quinton, Stairmaster, Star Trac and a few select others is very well built and, when cared for and serviced properly, can effectively opperate in a high-traffic facility for many years.  We remanufacture commercial fitness equipment to it's initial state and the results are very impressive.  Please see below for a more complete description and images of the remanufacturing process and feel free to email sales or dial our toll free number for more assistance.
