Whether you just want to keep fit and healthy or are a top athlete, our on-campus sports facilities will help you to achieve your sporting goals.
Read on to discover more about our range of indoor facilities which includes two friendly gyms, fitness and spin studios and, at the heart of SportÃÛÌÒAV, our Sports Hall.
The SportÃÛÌÒAV Gym
Our lively on-site gym is a welcoming and supportive environment to exercise in – whatever your fitness level or ability.
It’s packed full of state-of-the art equipment and areas to exercise in, all geared towards your individual fitness plan. The gym has four main areas:
Cardiovascular section: With state of the art CV kit which lets you run programs such as Sprint8, customise your own workouts, or exercise to scenery. You can even use apps or watch TV whilst charging your phone with the wireless charging dock!Â
Resistance kit section: Most of our resistance kit offers more than one exercise per machine, such as our Multi-Press (Shoulder, Incline, and Chest Press), Leg Extension and Leg Curl, or Hip Abductor and Hip Adductor. Each machine even has a rep counter and timer to help keep you on track with your workout!
Functional space: An open space for you to workout how you want! With a rack full of free weight equipment, to specialist cardio equipment such as a Ski Erg or Watt Bikes, and yes, we have a boxing bag!
Free weights area: This area contains two Olympic bench presses, two cable machines, three squat racks, three platforms, a preacher curl, several benches and dumbbells ranging from 10-50kgs.
We also have specialist bars for Olympic and Powerlifting.
Come on down and see for yourself! You can even have a one day free trial and experience it all.Â
