Located just behind Streatham High Road, Fitness First Streatham is a fantastic gym in the heart of the area. Although it’s not 24 hours, it is open from 5:30am on weekdays, allowing you to get in your workout before you head to work. Set over several floors, you’ll find fitness studios, spin room, free weights area, cardio area, and a 20 metre swimming pool with steam room and sauna.
Fitness Classes
There are a number of fitness studios here and that means plenty of classes throughout the day. From strength training and spin to yoga and Body Pump, part of the Les Mills training programmes, you’ve got lots to choose from. You’ll also find there are aqua cardio classes in the swimming pool too, which is great if you need a little relief on the joints.
Facilities
As a Fitness First gym, you can expect modern, high quality equipment and free WiFi. It’s Life Fitness equipment here so you can be safe in the knowledge you’ll be able to track your workout as best as possible. The functional training space is ideal for HIIT workouts and circuits, and along with weight machines, there are two squat racks for hitting those quads. Two studios and a spin room cater for all the classes with mood lighting to get the energy just right. And then there’s the 20m swimming pool, a great addition for any gym. Swim laps after your workout or use it as an opportunity to relieve DOMS from the days before. A sauna and steam room can also be enjoyed here to relax your sore muscles.
Membership Options
Gym memberships here range from £65 per month for a full membership which also gets you into 13 other gyms around the UK (but not all Fitness First gyms). And there are student discounts available too. Every so often they will have little offers to encourage you to join, like your first month half price and no joining fee.
Personal Training
If you’re not sure where to start, or fancy changing up your workout because you’ve hit a plateau, you can book a personal trainer. You can actually get a free 45 minute personal training session when you join. These can be booked through the Fitness First App.
