Brisbane's first outdoor gym

[judgey]

Free outdoor gym for Tingalpa

For those on the south (east) side in Brisbane, looks like we'll have another option with an outdoor gym.

"Cr Murphy said the Minnippi parklands gym will be protected by a shade cover with the following pieces of gym equipment proposed:
Cross Trainer
Treadmill
Hand Bike
Recumbent Bike (with a USB port that can charge phones, iPads etc)
Lateral Pull Down and Shoulder Press
Leg Press
Dips and Leg Raise
Pull Up and Assisted Pull Up
Bench"

Are there many of these in other cities in Australia?

I hope it is vandal proof.

Dickheads here even vandalise child playgrounds.

Up here in Mackay there is a big park with some fitness equipment around it, some of it static, others are movable... but nothing like this though

On the Goldy a few of the ocean walks have stations with a chin, dip, sit up, step up board etc at locations. See people all the times take the walk or run and stop at every station to bust out some exercies. Its a good initiative.

I have one near me but that one looks much better.

Yeah, been there a few times, including last Week. It's nothing special now. The Council have also created an Outdoor Squat machine to go with all the (Shoulder, Chest, Leg) Pressing machinezs, Dips, Chins, etc etc. They are quite common everywhere.

Just saw ur post LPS, i drive past the other side of that park on the weekend after i finish my night shift delivery job.

Have to go and check it out sometime, but there is an outdoor gym just along the road in Coorparoo too.

It's like a Calve Raise Machine using a hydraulic pump as resistance. I haven't found one with adequate resistance though. You could sit someone on top as resistance.
