New gym opens in Chamonix

A new concept in health and fitness opens in Les Houches this week – Chamonix Gym.

Brought about by a group of Chamonix locals, including athletes and fitness experts, the gym promises to offer all the usual training equipment and lots more besides.

As well as a fully equipped cardio gym there is also a weights and resistance studio; you can work out to your favourite tunes via the iPod docking stations, don some boxing gloves and get stuck into the punchbag, or work on your core strength with one of the Swiss balls.

There are a number of classes designed to get you in tip-top shape such as yoga, bootcamp and core training – members can also take advantage of the free classes that change week by week.

Not just a gym, Chamonix Gym also offers a personal service whereby you can take professional advice regarding nutrition, weight management, race training, expedition preparation, injury prevention and so on.

There are various membership options, including those for infrequent visitors and holidaymakers.

So, now that winter is on its way out there is no better time to start getting in shape for the summer! Visit Chamonix Gym for more information.
