"Created with adults of all ages in mind, the Fitness Court is adaptable for all fitness levels. New users can also download the free Fitness Court App — a coach-in-your-pocket style platform — that transforms the outdoor gym into a digitally supported wellness ecosystem. The Fitness Court App, entitled 'Fitness Court', is available for iOS and Android." The Fitness Court has seven stations, each designed to focus on a different area of the body. People are directed to spend 45 seconds exercising at each station, with 15 seconds of rest before moving on to the next station.
