Sidcup, Crook Log & Erith Leisure Centres in Bexley Celebrate National Fitness Day with Fun Fitness Activities for All Abilities

by London-TV in Business

Sidcup, Crook Log & Erith Leisure Centres in Bexley celebrated National Fitness Day 2023 on Wednesday 20 September with a number of free and discounted activities, available for everyone to take part.

National Fitness Day is a chance to highlight the role physical activity plays across the UK, helping to raise awareness of its importance in assisting everyone to lead healthier lifestyles.

All three Bexley leisure centres hosted a wide range of free activities including fitness classes, gym activities and swimming sessions throughout the day, with a large number of non-members participating to kick start their fitness journeys.

In addition, Erith Leisure Centre hosted discounted soft play sessions for the children which saw an increase in usage on the day. Sidcup Leisure Centre held a ‘ski challenge’ that saw a large number of customers compete to see who could ski the furthest in 60 seconds. The winning customer won a free Personal Trainer session and items from the centre’s Zoggs Collection as a prize!

Sidcup Leisure Centre embarked on a group challenge throughout the day. A Spin Bike was brought into the reception area, and participants worked together to cycle the distance from London to Brighton in under five hours. This was wholeheartedly supported by numerous members, who worked together with staff to achieve the goal in just 3 hours and 45 minutes.

All three centres hosted swimming classes and group exercise classes throughout National Fitness Day, as both members and non-members enjoyed working out together. Each centre also hosted a gym competition, with participants competing to hold a ‘wall sit’ for the best time, with a large number of members taking part.

Commenting on the National Fitness Day activities, Lee Clark, Area Manager said:

“It was great welcoming both current members and new faces to participate in National Fitness Day across all three leisure centres in Bexley. We’d like to thank everyone who came to take part, as well as all our teams who made it a fantastic experience.”
