The Safety should be the Primary Principle when Designed Outdoor Fitness Equipment.

As people pay more attention to their health, outdoor fitness equipment is more and more popular. We do exercise on fitness equipment and maintain physical fitness. In the design of fitness equipment, we must firstly consider its safety.


When designing outdoor fitness equipment, it should be taken into account the elderly and children and try to avoid too difficult fitness equipment design. The design should fully consider the human factor, analysis the size, force and limited size and other relative data of human body in the movement, to avoid muscle strain and other medical errors.
For moving parts with the existence of dangerous, limit position should be set to avoid security incidents caused by inertia or momentum in the movement. For example, in the use of mobile fitness equipment “Space Walker”, people can walk and jog on equipment, which can exercise the body's leg muscles and arm strength. But many users use it as an equipment of splits practice, likely to cause leg muscle strain and other injuries. Some elderly people like to move in one direction with the legs, easy to cause the center of gravity instability, once missed with falling, the brain will be the first part injured. So in the design of “Space Walk” and such kind of fitness equipment, should set the limit position, so that when the pedal move to a certain angle, it can no longer continue to increase the angle, helping the applicable crowd to prevent muscle strain and other accidents. By analyzing the limit value of human body size, it is most suitable to set the limit position at 55 ° for pedal’s maximum distance from the center axis of the equipment.
The fitness equipment material mainly is metal material, while the majority of the southern cities and coastal cities are of humid weather or excessive rain, the fitness equipment corrodes easily, not only affecting the appearance, and likely to cause the users to get worn and hurt with their hands. Therefore, when designing outdoor fitness equipment, we should pay attention to selection of equipment material and coating material, to choose safe and environment- friendly materials. In addition, the design of fitness equipment should be as simple as possible and chamfer smooth, try not to use complex parts, to avoid people being scratched in the process of exercise.
