Echelon Unveils Strength Home: A Compact All-in-One Connected Strength Training System
Freestanding, foldable, and versatile, Echelon’s new addition is centered on strength and longevity
Echelon has introduced Strength Home, a freestanding, connected at-home strength training system designed to provide guided and customized workouts with easy-to-adjust resistance levels.
The new at-home fitness system is the latest addition to Echelon’s extensive lineup of connected fitness equipment, which includes cycles, treadmills, rowers, mirrors, stair climbers, and elliptical machines.
The Strength Home system caters to consumers who value the flexibility of at-home fitness, particularly as they increasingly discover the benefits of strength training for long-term health and longevity.
“Strength is one of the four key types of exercise, alongside endurance, balance, and flexibility,” Echelon Fitness CEO Lou Lentine says. “Incorporating resistance training is recommended at least twice a week by leading authorities, such as the AHA, to improve overall health and amplify better outcomes around fitness, body training and weight loss.”
Lentine adds that for many fitness consumers, at-home systems are bulky and expensive—factors that the new Echelon Strength Home addresses.
“We have developed a machine that is well-built, affordably priced, aesthetically desirable for any room in the home, and doesn’t need to be bolted into your wall,” he explains.
The new connected strength training system is available on Echelon’s website. It features a 24” embedded HD touchscreen, several resistance modes— including concentric and isokinetic— a straight bar with 5 to 110 lbs of digital resistance per arm, a vast library of instructor-guided workouts and on-demand classes, and the ability to fold into a full-length mirror when not in use. Beyond strength training, the system offers access to cardio, HIIT, stretching, yoga and meditation classes.
Although some at-home fitness leaders have struggled to evolve in recent years, Fortune Business Insights projects that the global home fitness equipment market will grow from $12.10 billion in 2024 to $18.94 billion by 2032. Driving the demand is the growing awareness of the harmful effects of physical inactivity on health, alongside the rising trend of personalized fitness routines.
