Want to go to the gym but can’t afford the fee? The people at the Outdoor Gym Company may have a solution.

I love the fresh air, and sometimes gyms can feel a bit stuffy. So what if you moved the gym outside? And waived the membership fee? Well that’s what The Great Outdoors Gym Company have done.


These free outdoor gyms can be used by anyone, and are dotted across the country’s parks and public areas. The gyms include weather resistant versions of equipment you would expect to see in your local gym including cross trainer, weights and stationary bike.


With an emphasis on getting everyone fit and active whatever their income, age or background, the number of outdoor gyms are rising.


The Great Outdoors Gym Company even have special brightly-coloured designs for young people to encourage them to take part in physical activity.

For parents who don’t have time to get to the gym, you can take your kids to the park and work out at the same time!


The outdoor gyms seem like a great idea, and hopefully we’ll see more of them soon. Check out the website http://www.tgogc.com to learn more and find out where your nearest outdoor gym is.


Be happy,


Mr. M
