Head out to work out

Working out outdoors is a fantastic way to keep fit while enjoying nature. Get set to take your gym sessions outdoors as five new exercise areas are almost here.

• Opposite Al Reem 2
• Between Mirador & Savannah
• Alvorada open park
• Opposite Aseel
• The Oasis

The area is shaded under a robust canopy and you will find something for every fitness requirement including runners, ski runners, shoulder pull, and stationary bicycles.

Few tips to remember:

• Do warm-ups first. It increases blood flow and temperature in the muscles to help decrease the risk of injuries.
• No matter what the weather, hydrate!
• Bananas are ideal for giving your muscles a boost before you begin your session. Have one or two around ten minutes before your session.
• Don’t forget to keep masks on except during strenuous exercise – and remember, community gym rules apply.
