Life Fitness will also provide other cardio and strength solutions from its extensive product portfolio.

Symbio represents a first-of-its-kind, ultra-premium cardio experience from Life Fitness.

Greta Wagner, Executive Vice President of Chelsea Piers Athletic Club and Senior Vice President of Chelsea Piers Management, along with other members of the management team were on site at IHRSA to celebrate the new agreement.

"After seeing the new cardio collection at the Life Fitness Innovation Lab at IHRSA 2023, David Tewksbury, our managing partner, and I knew that Symbio had to be a part of our next club," said Wagner. "The simplicity and elegant design will be a beautiful addition to our fourth, spectacular club in the New York City area. We are excited to build on the 28-year relationship we have with Life Fitness and to bring the Symbio collection to New York this summer."

The Symbio series consists of the Symbio Runner (treadmill), Symbio Incline Elliptical, Symbio SwitchCycle, and Symbio Recumbent Cycle. Each product in the series integrates body and machine in seamless motion with advanced biomechanics designed to enhance comfort and performance. Chelsea Piers plans to include all four machines at the Flatiron Club, in their newest location. The full product collection will be installed prior to the club opening, which is scheduled for mid-summer.

"Our new Symbio series is truly fitness reimagined, and it will elevate the workout experience for Chelsea Pier Athletic Club's diverse membership base.
