“Total Gym is proud to have been selected by Project Walk as a critical tool in the amazing work they do for their clients,” says Jesse Campanaro, President of Total Gym. “It aligns with our passion for helping people get healthier no matter where they are starting.”
In addition to Total Gym equipment, the partnership further supports a collaboration to improve research in the area of spinal cord injuries and partial body weight exercises. Such collaboration provides new and improved training methods to those attending select Project Walk locations.
