The Cost of Going to the Gym Just Got a Lot Cheaper

Spring is scheduled to arrive on the 20th March and I’d bet hard cash that half of the people who pledged to get in shale this year have don’t squat (no pun intended). Speaking of cash, the cost of going to the gym can leave a noticeable dent in your wallet – joining fees alone can cost what feels like an arm and a leg. However, if the cost of a gym membership is genuinely too much for you to factor into your budget this year – fear not. Thanks to the Outdoor Gym Company, finding a treadmill or cross trainer is literally a walk in the park. Free gyms can be found in 75 outdoor locations nationwide with more gyms sprouting up regularly.

Matt Delaney, Managing Director of The Great Outdoor Gym Company UK, said: ‘The credit crunch is making many people feel nervous about spending money on gym memberships or expensive fitness regimes. Innovative local authorities and private organisations recognise the value of providing free outdoor gyms to their community, especially in these times of financial difficulty.

The equipment is resistance based (no is electricity required), robust and weatherproof, so leave your excuses at the door and get training. People with disabilities can also participate as the equipment has been designed in accordance with guidelines from the Inclusive Fitness Initiative. And before you even think of using safety as an excuse, all outdoor gym equipment complies with the European safety standards.

For those who have always used the excuse of expense to wriggle out of a workout, The Great Outdoor Gym Company, have now made it next to impossible to use finance as a crutch.

I say if it's good enough for Christine Ohuruogo...
