Upper body is taken care of with flat & incline benches, a fly machine, lat m/cs, seated rows, high & low pulleys, etc. There is a Smith machine, as well as a variety of fixed and incline benches, roman chair, and stomach bench.

CV training is handled by a selection of cross trainers, bikes and steppers for those wanting to train indoors, or of course we have the glorious paseos running the length of the beaches for jogging while you are on holiday.

Woman's gym

There is a separate brand new woman's gym downstairs, with all new machines. New steppers, treadmills, bikes and a fearsome abs machine! All new showers and changing facilities as well, make this the best training facility in Almuñécar by far, as well as the friendliest.
