August 8, 2013. An exercise therapy class was recently open at Karabashmed's health unit, Russian Copper Company's PR Administration reports. A trampoline, some bar-bells, an exercise disk, a pres bar, a hoola hoop, a mini stepper, a fitness ball, a skip rope, and a sit-up bench have already been purchased as class equipment. You can also have your blood pressure checked and have an oxygen cocktail here.

According to senior primary health worker Zaituna Shaikhovna, the workers come willingly, first and foremost because they want to keep fit, build up some muscles, and improve the way their bodies look.

'A trampoline is necessary for fortifying one's musculo-skeletal system and vestibular system. Besides, a rush of adrenaline into one's body trains one's heart and blood vessels and guarantees a good mood. The trampoline is perhaps the least expected apparatus in the class, so it attracts special attention. If we want to entice men into visiting the class, however, we should consider setting up some ping-pong tables and complement our equipment with various kinds of weights for all fitness levels,' she adds.
