Product design - Inclusive arm trainer






- What kind of future we want ? -

This project is my bachelor project I tried to imagine the city of tomorow, an inclusive city which can adapt this sport equipment according to the diversity of the population.

- Use Empathy to understand the users - 

I did a afternoon wheelchair sports session in KOMPAN outside public fitness area at Blandan park in Lyon, France to better understand the user's needs. This complete immersion make me realize how hard it is to move in a wheelchair and that the actual machines in the workout area is not adapted to everyone. 
I also met Kevin, a young Lyonnais in wheelchair since childhood who go workout every Thursday at Lyon University with special coach. He invite me here to workout and shared his personal life experience.




This is a fitness machine for the top of the body useful for all. I decided to design a workout machine for KOMPAN outdoor fitness furniture agency who already investigate Blandan parc in Lyon 7. 
It can be used by people in wheelchairs and by able-bodied people.

Thank you!
