A Fit and Strong Community

Colorado Apartment Complex expands Wellness Offerings by MoveStrong FitGround

β€œLive life like a vacation” – that’s the slogan of Raindance Communities in Colorado. And what would a vacation be without all kinds of enjoyable amenities residents could ask for?

Mountain View Apartments in Windsor, CO is a brand-new apartment complex close to Fort Collins and Denver. Besides stunning views on the Rocky Mountains, residents get numerous wellness offerings, including walking trails, a golf course, a pool, a movie theatre, and, since December 2021, a workout playground for adults.

The MoveStrong outdoor fitness project measures 3,500 sqft and consists of various exercises, combining FitGround and obstacle course components for all ages and fitness ranges.

Due to being a small town, Windor’s fitness offerings are limited. Insprired by a nearby location with MoveStrong equipment and the desire to increase the number of positive, unique exercise locations, drove the decision to use the space for an outdoor FitGround.

After 8 months of planning, design, and construction, Mountain View Apartment residents will now be offered group exercises and individual training, guided by their local community staff.

Endless workout possibilities on 3,500 square foot.

3,500 sqft of fun new challenges

The MoveStrong outdoor fitness project offers more than ten different gadgets for all ages and fitness levels.

From day one, MoveStrong Functional Fitness was on board to create a customized exercise area tailored to the available space, training needs, and budget. Layout support, custom equipment configurations, installation, and education are all included in the service package. The tricky part about the Mountain View at Raindance Apartment’s request: specialty fitness surfacing with the artificial turf chosen for the area.

β€œI feel like the team was here day and night.
The process was fast and they were really friendly.”
— Ernie Martinez, Community Manager at Mountain View Apartments
β€œChallenges on-site sometimes force you to modify as you go, but we have developed a great course to explore new ways of exercising.”
— Jared Kuka, owner of Move Strong and Project Manager

Improving endurance, functional strength, and flexibility, all while breathing some fresh air and competing with friends and neighbors is a great way to mix up any workout routine. It was important for MoveStrong to educate the community staff on the most effective use of each training area. A training event prior to the launch gave them a glimpse of the vast possibilities to use the equipment. Climb, crawl, run, jump, balance, and swing – there are no limits to creativity. To make it even easier to remember some of the options, each part is equipped with QR codes reminding users of its key features.

β€œTenants love the facility and the options there. During the warmer days we already see constant activity. Some of our residents like to refer to it as Mountain View Ninja Warrior Course.”
— Ernie Martinez, Community Manager at Mountain View Apartments

The new outdoor FitGround is a well-rounded solution to complete the community’s health and wellness efforts.
