Branded F.A.S.T (Functional Athletic Strength Training) Studio and located at the Waterfront Leisure Complex, Greenock, Scotland, the site is the first in the UK to integrate Escape Fitness’ trailblazing Octagon LOAD system alongside cutting-edge functional training equipment.
Designed to elevate the fitness experience, the F.A.S.T Studio combines advanced functional strength training, tailored branding, and a diverse class offering to create a premium yet accessible space for all fitness levels.

The project.
To create a modern training facility that attracts and engages a broad demographic and provides a safe, results-focused environment suited to small group and one-to-one training.
Capitalising on the global rise in consumer preference for strength training, Inverclyde Leisure sought a solution that merges the benefits of functional training with strength development, encouraging people to move purposefully and effectively, driving training goals safely and efficiently whilst delivering an unrivalled training experience.
The facility also needed to stand out visually and conceptually to compete with other high-end boutique studios in the area.
The solution.
Escape Fitness built a dedicated training environment around its pioneering Octagon LOAD system. Linking five standalone stations:
SQUAT, DRIVE, LIFT, PRESS, and ROW, LOAD introduces a unique, advanced variable resistance technology that places tensile brands alongside traditional plates to deliver precise and seamless resistance transition between sets. All exercises are performed in a standing position, ensuring the entire kinetic chain is engaged through every movement, delivering an efficient and effective full body workout.
LOAD is complemented by traditional sled tracks, battle ropes, cable stacks, and functional accessories, creating a dynamic training space that can adapt to changing training preferences, future proofing the investment.
Dynamic lighting effects and sleek modern aesthetics complement the equipment to deliver an immersive experience that drives performance.
Since its launch, the F.A.S.T Studio has exceeded expectations, with group sessions consistently hitting capacity.
LOAD provides a unique concept to training.
LOAD takes strength training to a new level, providing a training experience that is a truly unique concept allowing customers to stand, using the strength stations with resistance bands and weight plates. This setup provides a highly effective full body training experience, allowing members to lift, push, and pull with controlled resistance that challenges traditional strength workouts.
This is the first time this level of adaptable, resistance-based strength training has been integrated into a group studio setting, bridging the gap between functional strength and high-intensity circuit training. LOAD has allowed us to expand our programming potential. Its versatility is helping us develop new sessions that cater to both total strength development and performance-based training, ensuring our offering continues to evolve to meet customer demand.
Working with Escape Fitness throughout the design and installation process has been a fantastic experience. Their attention to detail and expertise helped us integrate LOAD in a way that enhances both functionality and member experience, providing a turnkey solution and setting a new benchmark for group strength training.
