More Than 250 Possible Exercises Focus on Strength, Flexibility and Balance
LOS ANGELES, June 30, 2008 - In an industry first, in July 2008, Crystal
Cruises is debuting revolutionary Kinesis(tm) fitness equipment aboard its
ultra-luxury ships, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity. The equipment
capitalizes on the use of cable resistance in all planes of movement, and
simultaneously incorporates several areas of fitness: strength, flexibility
and balance. According to The Journal of Strength and Conditioning
Research, cable-based equipment can produce twice the fitness results as
single plane exercises.
Kinesis(tm) equipment comprises a series of panels, grips, weight stacks and
cables that enable 360-degree movement, allowing for more than 250 possible
exercises, with benefits that include:
* Enhanced strength, balance and flexibility;
* Easy to use, customizable workouts to meet various physical fitness
levels;
* Full body involvement, enabling the user to engage several muscles groups
simultaneously;
* No impact exercises, utilizing fluid natural movements;
Designed for individual use with a personal trainer, the one-hour
Kinesis(tm) personal training sessions are $100, or $254 for three sessions.
Crystal's fitness directors report a 77% increase in personal training on
Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity from 2006 to 2007.
Crystal's myriad fitness opportunities also boast state-of-the-art gyms with
a high ratio of the newest treadmills and elliptical trainers with personal
televisions; weight training; complimentary yoga, Pilates and newly
introduced "Tour de Spin" cycling classes; and an exclusive Walk on Water
program utilizing weighted vests to increase resistance. Other fitness
facilities include a lap pool, 360-degree Promenade deck for walking and
jogging, paddle tennis courts, golf driving ranges and putting greens, and
shuffleboard courts.
The Feng Shui-inspired Crystal spas have won several coveted travel industry
awards. Additionally, Crystal Cruises has been voted "World's Best" by the
readers of Travel + Leisure and Condé Nast Traveler more than any other
cruise line, hotel or resort in history.
In 2008, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity continue to sail to exotic
destinations worldwide. In December, both ships host Mind, Body & Spirit
theme cruises, focusing on general wellness through classes and discussions
with guest instructors in Tai Chi, yoga, Pilates and fitness.
