In the borough of Redbridge, a new branch of ‘The Gym’ has recently been established and to some residents of that area its come as a “life saver”. This gym has caused excitement amongst people especially the youth who are extremely passionate about fitness and a healthy lifestyle.
The gym consists of well equipment and machinery so people have a varied selection of the type of workout they prefer to do, for example cardio or resistance training. They have many machines such as loads and loads of treadmills and three Olympic style benches.
Mr Don said: “a major reason people are afraid to go to the gym is because of the parking problems but this gym has solved all the problems as it contains a big car park for member, for free parking all day.”
Before this gym there was no other gym nearby or any gym that was ‘as good’ so you would see very less making their way to a gym but since, this gym has been opened right on the main road a lot of residents have began to start going gym regularly.
Mrs Antony said: “I am extremely glad that this gym opened as before I would just sit at home and I was becoming very unhealthy but since ‘The Gym’ opened near my house I am beginning to get into shape and I feel very healthy.”
This opening has created a different type of ‘buzz’ in the residents of Ilford and it could be a start to a healthier lifestyle for many people which will make the area a happy place overall.
