If you’re in Farringdon for work and looking for a slightly more premium gym, Gymbox Farringdon is a great option. At 42,000 square feet, it’s the biggest space in the Gymbox chain and has everything you will need for a solid workout whether it’s before work, at lunch or in the evening.
Like most Gymbox gyms, it’s open 6am-11pm on weekdays, however weekend opening times are slightly different, opening at the later time of 9am and closing at 5pm.
Fitness Classes
Gymbox has a whole bunch of classes included in the membership which are spread across an impressive seven categories. Whatever your goals or preferred style of training, Gymbox has you covered. The classes are easily bookable through the app, however make sure you’re regularly checking for what’s on as the most popular classes will book up days in advance.
Facilities
Gymbox is known for the vast amount of facilities it offers and Gymbox Farringdon is no different. As well as a dedicated Olympic lifting area, it also has plenty of free weights and weight machines, meaning you won’t be short of options while training here.
One of the coolest things about Gymbox is the combat areas – including Olympic sized boxing rings – that are a centrepiece in all of the gyms. There’s also a sprinting track and many other things which allow you to bring some variety to your workouts should you want to.
As you would expect, there are showers and towels provided. It also has a sauna, perfect for relaxing and winding down after a long day or intense session.
Membership Options
There are monthly, 6 month and 12 month contracts which vary in price, starting at £120 and going up to £150 for the shorter term option. If you’re wanting to add other gyms to your membership this will increase the monthly fee depending on location. There is potential to reduce these costs with monthly promos, depending on when you sign up.
If you’re visiting London for the day, or just keen to try a new gym, day passes are available for a one off £25.
Personal Training
Personal training is available here with several personal trainers on hand to help you achieve your fitness goals. And with so many different and unusual classes, you’ll often find a PT who can introduce you to something new!
