Getting Involved

Getting involved in classes is THE best way to kickstart your fitness journey, there are so many benefits. As well as massively progressing on your physical well-being, it helps your mental well-being too. It has been the most testing time for us all with lockdown and Covid rules. Depression had risen by 19.2% and that was back in June 2020! The biggest reasons are being at home and overthinking, overeating, lack of exercise and socialization. All of these problems have solutions right here at Underground gym with the large variety of classes that we have to offer, the range of fun characters, members and instructors and the classes, there is such a variety of classes so you will never get bored. Exercise actually becomes something you can look forward to, rather than seeing it as a chore. You will find yourself having a laugh with everyone down the gym and find some accountability pushing you to work that little harder than before or someone you may find at the same fitness level as yourself.

Which Exercise Class is Best for Me?

The best exercise class for you will  depend on your fitness goals, preferences, and any physical limitations.

If you’re looking to improve your cardiovascular fitness (and heart health), consider aerobic classes like spin or dance. Strength training classes, like weightlifting or body pump, are ideal for muscle development. For stress reduction and flexibility, yoga or Pilates may be suitable.
