Outdoor Fitness V’s Gym’s – why the shift in weight?

Up until the turn of the century, gym workouts were the most popular alternative for people looking to improve their health and fitness. Gymnasiums replaced the squash courts of the 70’s and the aerobics era of the 80’s, promising confidently a personalised and all encompassing service with proven results. As the turn of the century fast approached, green shoots of negative sentiment were being formed by gym members, predominately as a result of poor service and a lack of integrity of large gym operators.



Now, as we move well into the 21st century, thousands and thousands of gym members disenchanted with the lack of service of large chain gymnasiums, compounded by lengthy and expensive contracts, have turned to the trusting hands of outdoor fitness instructors. Outdoor Fitness is a contemporary approach to fitness combining a variety of training regimes with the natural benefits of the great outdoors.



Rush Hour Australia’s outdoor fitness classes are a very popular form of outdoor fitness. Outdoor Fitness allows our trainers to utilise the outdoor training environment (hills, steps, parks, sand etc) with a range of equipment kettle bells, parachutes, sleds, boxing gear, hurdles, harnesses, speed ladders, medicine balls and more to maximise the training effect for our clients. Rush Hour Australia’s outdoor fitness instructors apply essential training techniques with the latest information on fitness physiology to create a supportive, challenging and results driven environment.
