Long Beach, United States - California, June 18, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Powertec, a leader in Plate-Loaded Homegyms, acquired most of the intellectual property of Muscle Dynamics, including, but not limited to, the Maxicam & Muscle Dynamics brands & designs of the Dynamax line from Oscar Leon, President & CEO of Muscle Dynamics, for an undisclosed sum.

Muscle Dynamics was started in 1971 to build anatomically correct fitness machines that would last a lifetime of use.  For almost 45 years, the Maxicam branded machines have been used in hard-core gyms such as Gold's Gym & World Gym to mainstream gyms like Bally Total Fitness & 24 Hour Fitness.
