The Fitness Court at Escondido Public Library is part of a nationwide initiative to promote pedestrian movement and free world-class fitness. With a mission to combat obesity and sedentary lifestyles, this business focuses on building healthy communities by providing expertise in funding, masterplanning, and community engagement. By partnering with municipalities, schools, and sponsors, over $100 million in public-private investment has been raised to support the installation of Fitness Courts across America.
National Fitness Campaign, the organization behind the Fitness Court, designs these outdoor gyms as healthy hubs in parks and along trails to encourage everyday movement and improve health outcomes. With a focus on strategic planning for healthy communities, their team of experts works with cities, counties, towns, and schools to create environments that support well-being. The Fitness Court is a free, digitally activated bodyweight circuit training system designed for adults of all ages and fitness levels, connected by a mobile app for a comprehensive wellness experience.
With a history of success stories in various cities and institutions across the country, the Fitness Court initiative aims to make world-class fitness accessible to all Americans within a 10-minute bike ride. By providing free outdoor fitness infrastructure and promoting healthy living, the Fitness Court at Escondido Public Library is part of a larger movement to address the nationwide health crisis and create equitable, accessible wellness activities for communities.
