CitySport Gym Refurbishment
We're excited to share details of our upcoming gym refurbishment, designed with one goal in mind – creating a better training experience for you.
While much of our existing equipment still looked great, it was approaching 10 years old and was ready for a refresh. Over the last decade, the fitness industry has evolved significantly, with more members focusing on strength training, functional fitness, and performance-based training rather than solely cardio. We wanted our gym to reflect these changing trends and provide the facilities our members truly want.
To help shape the project, we asked for your feedback on the equipment, layout, and training spaces you'd like to see. We carefully reviewed every suggestion and are proud to say that this refurbishment has been designed with our members at the heart of every decision.
What's New?
- Increased range of pin-loaded resistance equipment
- More plate-loaded strength equipment
- Additional Olympic lifting platforms for squats, deadlifts, and weightlifting movements
- A significantly expanded functional training area
- Future HYROX-accredited training zone
- A dedicated stretching and recovery area
- A fresh new look and feel throughout the gym, including the perfect spot for a post-workout selfie – don't forget to tag us on Instagram!
Please note that the designs and visuals shared are intended to give you a good idea of the finished result. While the final gym will look very similar, some elements may change throughout the installation process.
