This one’s for ladies only! 

energie fitness for women, Swindon - a new type of fitness studio with a new outlook for women

 

When I was asked to do a write-up of a women’s only gym I immediately thought to myself, “finally a fitness centre that won’t be full of egotistical men, where I won’t feel intimidated or embarrassed to break sweat…” And that’s exactly what I got!

Walking in I realised immediately how friendly it all seemed. A large group of women were exercising and smiling, “now, that's a bit novel”, I thought.

 

Personal touch: Helen Williams with a client at energie fitness for women in Swindon

And then, with a beckoning wave from the owner, Helen Williams, I knew that this new fitness studio did exactly what it said on the tin.

 

The advert claims energie fitness for women to be: ‘A fitness and weight loss studio designed for the wellbeing of women; providing an informal, friendly, non-intimidating and safe environment to work out and realise your goals, catering for all females from 16 to any age’

 

 

The Studio itself, decorated in shades of pink and purple, is very spacious and includes the following: a revolutionary 30 minute fitness and weight loss circuit which is simple to use, giving fantastic results, using resistance rather than weights. And the best part, ladies; you only spend 30 seconds on each machine!

 

“This 30 minute circuit workout combines aerobic activity to increase your heart rate and muscle toning, to work all major muscle groups in your body” said Helen.

 

“The nature of the upbeat, on-the-move workout allows you to tone each part of the body in short bursts.”

The second circuit is a 30 minute motorised health and well-being circuit – which is easy, fun and relaxing. Regardless of age, shape, size or fitness level you will see great results.

 

 

The studio itself is big enough to have a separate area for classes and small group exercise sessions.

 

Currently aerobics and boxercise classes are being run but you will also find impromptu group sessions taking place, such as core work on stability balls.

 

 

An added bonus is energie’s Empower 6 week results guaranteed programme: “We discuss your fitness and weight loss goals and track your progress weekly through these first 6 weeks and beyond,” added Helen, “By following this step by step programme you can transform your health and fitness and make rapid advances towards getting optimum results”.

 

A walking group and a beginner’s running group are also planned, once the evenings are lighter.

 

One thing I am sure of, if you want a friendly atmosphere where you can get your fitness results without the insecurities of a mixed gender gym, energie fitness for women, Swindon is the place for you!
