‘ …Desmotec really benefits my athletes in terms of their 1^st initial power

Denis Mitchell-Coach of Justin Gatlin-100m World Champion

…. After a short session .. there was an increase in the players vertical jump and an ‘unbelievable’ feeling in the legs afterwards on the ice……one of the best apparatus to improve posture, …it is a high ‘velocity’ eccentric overload device …now with the E-Board we have an apparatus to measure everything around balance …’

Paul Gagne-Posturologist, Montreal , Canada Short Track Olympic Speed Skating and NHL Ice Hockey S&C Coach

…from 2016 …I use the Desmotec for testing and training….the compression and absorption that you get from the Desmotec helps with teaching athletes how to absorb forces and by extension be explosive….it simulates sporting activities… …. and the enjoyment the athletes get working with the equipment compared with other traditional exercises–

What Clients Say

Upon my arrival at Wasps I was given the opportunity to create a gym space that I had always wanted to work in. Having visited and trained in many gyms around the world I had a pretty good idea of the kind of working space that I wanted to create. A gym for me has to be able to stand the test of time. I am not one for gimmicky trends that are so often pushed on environments and believe a gym should be a space that, regardless of program, should be able to cater for any program or vision.

Rubicon Sports was the first European company working in the UK that I became aware of that supplied the highly regarded PowerLift strength and conditioning equipment. The choice of this equipment has proved itself over the last 15 years, the equipment is durable and remained current in it design and function.

I have used Powerlift products (supplied through Rubicon) for 5 years now have never been disappointed. Following a very professional fit out and after care I have found the quality of Powerlift still beats anyone else out there. Built to the highest quality, they will last far longer than the competitors and are built with the user in mind. I have experienced a full array of their platforms and benches and their robustness and quality means they still look and operate excellent condition, even after high use.

When setting up our strength and conditioning facility, I wanted our athletes to have access to the finest equipment available that would allow us to deliver the widest range of training inputs, in the knowledge that the equipment would stand up to everything our athletes would throw at it. Power lift equipment was the obvious choice, being the premier product in the industry and I can’t be more pleased with our decision. Despite constant heavy use, the equipment looks as good today as it did when it arrived. It truly does stand the test of time.

In our Olympic training centres, we need to ensure that the equipment we provide for our athletes is of the highest possible quality. It needs to be tough, long lasting and adaptable to our requirements. That is why we have made the choice to install Powerlift equipment in each of our training centres. Powerlift produces an exceptional range of products that allow us to optimise our facilities and enable our athletes to maximise their training and reach their potential.
