New outdoor gym

Ever wished no-one was around and you could bring back your childhood by having a go on the children's play equipment?

Well now we have just installed 7 pieces of equipment designed for older people to have some fun - and at the same time help fitness levels too!

With great names like the Body Spinner, Skier, Surfer and Space Walker, this robust outdoor play equipment is designed for use by adults and children over 12 years old.

Look for the instruction plate on each piece of equipment to find a guide of how to use, how long to use (depending on your existing fitness levels) and also what muscle groups are worked. The equipment installed is: the Body Twister, the Agility Bench, the Skier, the Four Wheel Spinner, the Space Walker, the Surfer and the Leg Press.  When used correctly, each piece of equipment provides a combination of activity types, ranging from cardiovascular exercise, muscle toning, mobility, flexibility and strength exercises.

They are free to use and can be found near the children's play area. Why not come and have a go!
