April into Action: Ways to Get Active This Month
As the days get longer and the weather warms up, April is the perfect time to boost your fitness levels, shake off the winter blues, and embrace a more active lifestyle.
Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or just looking to get back into the swing of things, there are plenty of ways to get moving. Here are some great ways to stay active this month.
Hit the Gym for a Structured Workout
The Gym is an ideal place to kickstart your fitness journey or challenge yourself to new goals. Whether you're into strength training, cardio, or group exercises, our gym provides everything you need to make fitness a routine.
Strength Training: Focus on building muscle with weightlifting or bodyweight exercises. A solid mix of squats, deadlifts, push-ups, and lunges can target all the major muscle groups.
Cardio: Hop on the treadmill, rower, or bike for a great cardiovascular workout. Interval training (HIIT) is especially effective for burning calories in a short period.
Walk Outside and Enjoy the Fresh Air
One of the easiest ways to stay active in April is by walking outside. With the arrival of warmer weather and blooming flowers, walking can be a refreshing and rejuvenating experience. Whether it’s a stroll around your neighbourhood, a walk through the park or a long hike, getting outside has many physical and mental health benefits.
Walking outside in nature has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and boost creativity. Use your walk as a time for reflection, mindfulness, or simply clearing your mind.
If you're looking for a goal, consider setting up a walking challenge with friends or family. Aim to walk a certain number of steps each day or hit a milestone of miles throughout the month. You might be surprised at how motivating it can be.
Pitches and Athletics Track
Whether you’re looking to improve your running, to have a kick about with friends, or for a fantastic location for regular sports clubs, we have pitches and an athletics track available to hire.
The range of facilities available makes this a great all-round venue, including two grass football pitches, a floodlit all-weather AstroTurf pitch and an 8-lane, 400m athletics track with terraced viewing gallery.
