Found the Fitness Zone by Fishermen's Village. What an awesome little excercise park! My wife and I have walked right past this about 1000 times. All the equipment is resistance based off your own body weight.

A friend of mine was involved with the project as a member of the Rotary Club (who was a major contributor), and he also has a position on Team Punta Gorda. The parks here are great. I believe they are looking to expand this, or add another location. They originally wanted to put it on another site that many of us use to play Bocce on, and so they changed the originally planned location to this site.

I have never been to it either, so I looked it up.

The Fitness Zone at Linear Park located between W. Retta Esplanade and W. Marion Avenue across from Fisherman’s Village. This outdoor gym consists of five (5) pieces of adult fitness equipment with activities designed to target the upper body, core, lower body and the cardiovascular system and is safe for use for persons 14 years of age and older, regardless of ability. The “Fitness Zone” was purchased through a private donation to the City of Punta Gorda by the Punta Gorda Rotary Club. Materials and installation were supplied by Home Depot of Punta Gorda.

I have yet to use it, but every time I've been by there, others were utilizing the machines. Another great move by PG!
