Functional training zones: why the subfloor makes the difference

Functional training zones are becoming increasingly popular in gyms and fitness studios. Think of sprint tracks, sled push and pull exercises, plyometric drills, and circuit training. Athletes choose these zones for variety, intensity, and a challenging workout. However, a heavily used training surface can wear out quickly or cause uneven floors. Without the right subfloor, vibrations, wear, and even safety risks can occur.

Different sports floors at the same level

Aslon® ShockpadFOAM offers the perfect solution. This shock-absorbing underlay protects the top layer against intensive use, provides a stable and comfortable walking surface, and integrates different sports floors into one seamless system with a uniform floor height.

This is ideal for areas where weightlifters and circuit trainers alternate. Under our sprint tracks, ShockpadFOAM also delivers extra resilience and a longer lifespan for the top layer, even during intensive sprinting, sled training, and running workouts.

Available in rolls or tiles, lightweight and easy to install, it is suitable for concrete and other subfloors.
