Why An Outdoor Gym?
With the pressures of work and family life, the popularity of technology drawing us indoors and the financial concerns felt by many, it can be hard to find the time, money and motivation to get outside and exercise.

A range of outdoor gym equipment for parks, has been specifically designed to be used by everyone, any age, any ability. Outdoor exercise is proven to enhance fitness, stimulate emotional wellbeing and help deliver essential oxygen and vitamin D. Each piece of gym equipment is simple to use, providing specific physical benefits including muscle strength, cardio fitness, flexibility, balance and co-ordination – not to mention a huge sense of achievement and an enormous amount of fun! What’s more, once installed, they are free for our community to use.
