The Life Fitness exercise company is a division of the Brunswick
Corporation, which did more than 5.2 billion dollars in business last
year. They create, make, and sell a number of different types of Life
Fitness exercise equipment for both home and commercial use. They
currently employ more than 1,700 people. They have twelve different
manufacturing facilities. Peter Hamilton is the current company president.
The History of Life Fitness
The company began in 1968 when Ray Wilson and Augie Nieto bought the
rights to market Dr. Keene P. Dimick's stationary bike. They believed
stationary bikes could change the way people lived. As the company
continued to grow, it helped to start the fitness craze of the late
seventies and early nineteen eighties.
During that fitness craze, Life Fitness introduced both their rowing
machine and their stair climber to the exercise equipment product market.
As the nation's concern with health and weight loss continued to grow into
the nineteen nineties, they introduced treadmills and Life Fitness
elliptical machines to the market. The elliptical became the number one
selling item in commercial facilities. It was during this decade that the
Brunswick corporation purchased Life Fitness.

Fitness name. The Life Fitness commercial brand offers treadmills, stair
