For the Home Weights Workout all you need is something you can hold in your hands to use as an added resistance. It could be a set of weights or dumb-bells, alternatively you could use washing softener bottles or plastic milk bottles filled with water. You could use wet towels in a plastic bag or bags of potatoes (anything you can hold in each hand). 

This is a fun session you can do in the comfort of your own home but share the experience with others. This session is a whole body workout that you can do in very little space. 

We will challenge you to make it effective, however, alternatives are offered throughout to cater for fitness levels and injuries etc. 

Come and join in the fun!!!!!!

These fun WALX make every step count. Total Body walking™ is a unique mix of drills with strength and balance exercises

Our unique WALX sessions need to be experienced

Total Body WALX sessions provide the opportunity to feel for yourself just how powerful walking based exercise can be when it is at the right level for you. You will be introduced to other ways to improve balance and flexibility and to boost strength, help with weight loss and make walking WORK for you

Many members prefer to walk with poles as they find it is more effective than walking without. When poles are used, you are able to engage the upper body, core muscles, improve posture and burn more calories

Learn how to WALK WELL by harnessing the power of good posture, core muscles and the perfect stride. Experience how PACE and HILLS can be empowering and how working on balance, flexibility and strength can make walking twice as effective, whatever you are aiming to achieve

Please bring along a small rucksack with your drink and any medication you may need

We meet at the far end of the Horseshoe Clump car park
