Better Leisure Centres in Enfield announces plans for National Fitness Day 2025 as it celebrates the theme, ‘Powered by you!’

National Fitness Day takes place on 24 September 2025 and to celebrate Southgate Leisure Centre in Enfield will be hosting free activities for everyone to try:

Dance Fitness – 4-5pm with Peter 

Group Cycle – 1-2pm with Maria  

Women’s only weight lifting workshop – 12-1pm with Romona 

Gym taster sessions.

Whether it’s trying out a new exercise class or a gym session, National Fitness Day aims to help inspire more people to get moving and start enjoying the physical and mental benefits of being more active every day.  

With a quarter of the population in England classed as inactive (averaging less than 30 minutes of physical activity a week), it's an opportunity to get millions more people active and support the NHS by improving the nation’s health. 

The UK Chief Medical Officers’ Guidelines recommend: 

·         Adults do at least 150 minutes moderate intensity activity, 75 minutes’ vigorous activity, or a mixture of both, every week. 

·         Do strengthening activities two days a week. 

·         Reduce extended periods of sitting.

·         Children and young people do at least 60 minutes of activity a day across the week 

Huw Edwards, CEO of ukactive, said: “As more people in the UK prioritise their physical and mental health, National Fitness Day is a moment to celebrate all the ways we can stay active to support our wellbeing and quality of life.   

“Our theme, ‘Powered by you!’, demonstrates that anyone can get involved, whether you’re a returning gym-goer or just taking the first step on your fitness journey.” 

 

To secure your space on the free sessions, visit better.org.uk/book or alternatively sessions will be bookable via the Better UK app.

We look forward to celebrating with you.
