Our history

How Kerngesund became what it is today — from 1997 until now.

We never stand still — we keep evolving: from the founding in Tübingen and the move to Nehren to the fully electronic machine circuit. These are our milestones.

Milestones

  1. 1997

    Founded in Tübingen

    Since our founding we have offered sports enthusiasts and everyone who wants to actively improve their health a varied programme of courses and fitness training.

  2. 2004

    Move to Nehren — 1,500 m²

    A generous space across several levels with over 150 endurance and strength machines, course rooms and a sauna area. The extra-high ceilings provide excellent air quality during training.

  3. 2008

    Rehab sports club founded

    Not just fitness, but getting healthy through movement: qualified sports therapists have supported doctor-prescribed rehab sports ever since.

  4. 2009

    Dr. Wolff machines with biometric measurement

    The Dr. Wolff back and abdominal machines with biometric muscle measurement have been a great success ever since.

  5. 2010

    Our own physiotherapy practice

    Another major project: building our own physiotherapy practice — directly connected to the studio.

  6. 2012–2013

    Complete renovation and modernisation

    A complete renovation with modernised machines and rooms created entirely new possibilities for our guests.

  7. 2014

    Introduction of the eGym circuit

    The fully electronic eGym machine circuit arrived — strength training that automatically adapts to every performance level.

  8. 2016

    fle-xx muscle-length training

    The fle-xx circuit expanded our range: targeted muscle-length training against shortened muscles and back problems.

  9. 2017–2019

    Expansion of the eGym machine park

    The eGym circuit kept growing — more machines, more training options, shorter waiting times.

  10. 2019

    PowerPlate and vibration training

    Two PowerPlates and vibration machines for deep-muscle training completed the line-up.
