The Cybex Research Institute is the research arm of Cybex International. Its primary responsibility is to investigate both future concepts and existing products to ensure designs are optimized to produce the desired results. Working relationships with exercise research oriented universities around the country expand our research capability and, as a manufacturer, we have the unique ability to immediately put that knowledge to work.
