Behind the scenes - Our Recent Gym Installations

At Blue Fitness, we specialise in commercial gym equipment supply, installation, and fitness facility upgrades across New Zealand.

From full gym fit-outs to targeted strength training upgrades, our team works behind the scenes to help fitness facilities deliver better member experiences and high-performance training environments.

Here’s a look at some of our recent gym installations, including behind-the-scenes installation work, strength floor upgrades, and premium equipment rollouts.

Behind-the-scenes gym installation at SNAP Fitness Bishopdale

A successful gym installation is never just about the final result.

Recently, our team completed a new equipment installation at SNAP Fitness Bishopdale, where we supported the full process from delivery through to final setup and testing.

Commercial gym installations require a detailed approach, including:

  • Equipment delivery checks against specification sheets
  • Safe movement and positioning of heavy gym equipment
  • Final layout checks to match gym design plans

Every detail matters to ensure the gym floor is safe, functional, and optimised for member flow and training experience.

While the finished space looks clean and seamless, the process behind a professional gym fit-out can be quite a mission.

Now for some finished equipment upgrades...

The Gallery Gym in Christchurch welcomed the GLUTEBUILDER Elite Hip Thrust to the gym floor.

Built for power, performance, and serious glute development, this piece is designed to elevate lower-body training for members of all levels.

Why did Gallery Gym go for Glutebuilder?

 ✔️ Targets one of the most in-demand training areas
 ✔️ Provides a safer, more stable alternative to barbell hip thrusts
 ✔️ Appeals to a wide demographic, from beginners to athletes
 ✔️ Enhances member experience with specialised, results-driven equipment
 ✔️ Helps your facility stand out with premium, purpose-built machines

Anytime Fitness Hornby added a dedicated glute training zone powered by GLUTEBUILDER.

Equipment installed:

  • Selectorised Dual 45° Hip Extension
  • Glute Squat
  • Pendulum Kick Back

This installation reflects the global rise in demand for specialised strength training zones, particularly glute-focused training areas in modern gyms.

Overall, by introducing this equipment, gym owners are actively working on increasing member engagement and retention. Innovative movement patterns and variety help improve member experience and encourage repeat gym usage.

Developed in partnership with Precor, GluteBuilder is becoming a leading solution in modern strength training gym equipment upgrades.

Anytime Fitness Papanui gym upgrade

At Anytime Fitness New Zealand Papanui, we recently installed three key strength training pieces designed to enhance lower-body and accessory training:

  • Pendulum Kickback
  • Olympic Bench
  • 45° Hip Extension

This type of targeted gym upgrade is becoming increasingly popular as facilities focus on improving strength training variety without overcrowding the gym floor.

The equipment has now been fully installed, tested, and is ready for members to use.
