New look fitness facilities at Warminster Sports Centre set to reopen

A state-of-the art fitness suite at Warminster Sports Centre will reopen on Thursday 20 March, following a three-month transformation. 

During the works, the gym has been relocated from the first floor of the building to the ground floor, providing more accessible opportunities for the community to utilise the facilities.

Following the fitness suite upgrade, the gym space has nearly doubled in size and will feature: 

• All new cardiovascular equipment, including a curved treadmill, air bike and Stairmaster
• An increased number of resistance machines 
• A larger free weight area, including an Olympic lifting rack, 4-in-1 rack, Smith machine, dumbbells and barbells 
• A functional area with Rig, kettlebells, medicine balls, slam balls, battle ropes and TRX suspension training
• A consultation room for inductions and member reviews
  
  
  A full refurbishment of the dance studio has also taken place, with upgraded lighting, heating, ventilation and the addition of a ballet barre. 

Following completion of the fitness suite, phase two of the refurbishment project at the centre will commence, with the original fitness space on the first floor being converted into a flexible space for instructor led and virtual classes, plus other events such as meetings and children's parties.  

On completion of phase two, work will take place to refurbish the changing rooms adjacent to the sports hall.  

Cllr Ian Blair-Pilling, Cabinet Member for Leisure, said, "We're really excited to be able to open the new gym facilities at Warminster Sports Centre. We hope that users will agree that they are much more modern and fit-for-purpose.  

"We want to support people to keep mentally and physically active and that is why we're investing in our leisure centres. These improvements will help to make the gym at Warminster more accessible, giving people of all ages more opportunity to utilise them.   

"Works will now take place to complete upgrades to the exercise studio and following that the changing rooms. We thank our loyal customers for their ongoing patience while these works have been carried out."
