Human Performance and Sport Studies, Ron Beaschler, Department
Chair, states, "We chose Paramount Equipment due to its
durability, innovation, quality and outstanding customer support.
Since we installed the equipment, student, faculty and staff
usage has increased dramatically. Paramount equipment allows
our Exercise Physiology majors personal training opportunities
using modern, state of the art equipment. Paramount Equipment
also allows our Athletic Training staff to effectively rehabilitate
injured athletes. Installing Paramount Equipment has allowed
our athletic teams to increase their strength, power and endurance,
and perform sport specific training not offered by other companies."
