  • Pro boxing punch bags and speed ball
  • Boxing gloves and sparing pads
  • Stackable plyometric boxes
  • Kettlebells

  • Sports agility speed sledge

And much more

What is functional fitness?

Functional fitness is a type of training that works hand in hand with everyday movements and activities, such as lifting, pulling and pushing. Functional training is also a great way to aid and improve coordination, strength, mobility and balance. The great thing about functional training is that you can ease your way in to it starting with just body weight, then over time as your training improves you can add weights making the workouts more challenging

How do I get involved?

We have 3 great classes which incorporate functional training also! Join us on:

  • Mondays from 7pm-8pm for HIIT
  • Thursdays at 6.30pm-7.30pm for HIIT
  • Sundays at 12pm-1pm for Total Body Conditioning
