Gym at Cadbury House reopens after £1m refurbishment

The gym's cardio-vascular, resistance and free weight equipment has been completely replaced, making it what is thought to be the most technically advanced gym in the South West.

The floor of the freeweight and HiiT area has also being replaced with the whole gym also benefitting from being completely redecorated.

Ellie Wallace, an England athlete, popped in to the Congresbury-based gym to mark the occasion. As a member of the North Somerset Athletic Association, she will now use the gym as part of her training routine.

The Technogym kit installed in the gym is the same as the athletes will use at the Paris Olympics in 2024.

The facility also boasts a range of health classes, including Spinning. Earlier in the year, the club purchased 25 Johnny G Spirit Bikes. This was part of a £50K investment.

Jason Eaton, general manager, said: “We’re absolutely delighted with how the refurbishment has gone. The new layout and all the new kit just looks amazing. It’s like stepping into a completely brand-new gym! 

“I’ve said many times before that we constantly look to invest in the club's facilities to make sure it remains the leading independent health club and spa in the country. And the investment in the gym’s equipment demonstrates our commitment to do just that.

“The first members were through the door at 6.15am on Friday morning and everyone since have said they just love the new space and kit.

“It was also great to invite Ellie in to check out the new equipment and hope she’ll move on to greater things in the coming months.

“No other health club in the region has such an extensive range of equipment and places us at the forefront of health and wellbeing.

“We’re now looking forward to welcoming current members as well as those who are considering joining a health club and to make their experience one that will help them achieve their goals.”
