Full-body workout and full stability
Functional training is not about training in an isolated manner. Daily movements are performed with load. You will get more stability in everyday life, more coordination in certain movements and a strengthening of the deep muscles. Our functional area is freely accessible to you.
You can create your own workouts and let your imagination run wild. Need to improve your sprint? Then sprint! You want to jump higher? Then jump! Or have you ever experimented with the Kettlebell, the Bulgarian Bag, or the Battle Ropes? Then go crazy on them.
Among other things you will also find slam balls, wall balls, a SkiErgo, a Curved Runner, an AirBike and a GHD. The floor is perfectly suited for weightlifting, and there are enough weight plates or dumbbells available.
If you still lack confidence or have no experience with free training, then join our group courses! Classes are coach-led, with a maximum of 10 participants so we can correct everybody. Lessons are included in the annual membership!
