New fitness suites at the Alexander Stadium athletics venue and Harborne Pool and Fitness Centre in Birmingham have received more than £270,000 worth of Pulse Fitness equipment.

Both facilities opened their doors to the public this month, with Birmingham City Council's (BCC) flagship venue at Alexander Stadium offering more than 100 stations.

The Alexander Stadium gym, which is located in a new S&P Architects-designed stand that was completed last year, also features PowerPlates and a free weights area.

Meanwhile, the £12.2m Harborne Pool and Fitness Centre - designed by Saunders Boston - includes a 70-station adult fitness suite, in addition to a 25m, six-lane swimming pool.

BCC leisure services health and fitness manager Anne Goodall said: "I for one have been extremely impressed with the value of the package presented to the council with equipment supply, warranty support and complimentary support services."
