Junior Gym and Fitness Classes

Junior Gym & Junior Fitness Classes 11 - 17yrs

Here at Forest Hill Pools, we believe that encouraging juniors to start their health and fitness habits early is very important. To support them during their journey, we offer a range of activities to choose from suitable for all abilities. Our Junior membership allows juniors 11-17 access to the gym, fitness classes and pool.

Junior Gym

Starting to work-out in the gym at a young age can be a great way to ingrain healthy habits early on. With a wide array of equipment at our facility, and specific classes designed to be fun, dynamic, and complimentary to childhood development, there’s never been a better time to start the journey of wellbeing to last a lifetime.

Juniors will have access to the majority of gym equipment including:

Cardio machines (treadmills, stair masters, cross-trainers, bikes, and rowing machines)

Resistance machines* (chest press, cables pulley machines, leg press, hip adductor, hip abductor, shoulder press, leg extension, hamstring curl, & assisted chin-up)

Functional Area* (TRX, bosu balls, steps, slam balls, medicine balls, battle rope, plyo boxes)

Juniors are not able to access the free weights area. *Juniors are required to use the lightest weight plates when using the resistance machine

Junior Fitness Classes

Junior fitness classes are a great way to get involved with organised workouts early on. They provide a safe environment to have a lot of fun. Learning from professionals while also in a space dedicated to children. They take place in Studio 1 and vary from a selection of weights, calisthenics, and functional equipment to provide a full body workout

CARDIO

These classes typically involve a combination of rhythmic movements and bodyweight exercises, such as boxing training, agility ladder drills, sprints, and burpees, to elevate heart rate and challenge the cardiovascular system

Strength and conditioning fitness classes are designed to improve overall physical fitness and performance by combining exercises that focus on building strength, endurance, and mobility.

Adult and Junior Gym

Keep your family active by working out together in our Adult & Junior gym sessions.

Juniors go free when this booking option is selected!

Adult and Junior gym sessions allow children aged 11-17 to train under the supervision of an adult. We have multiple sessions running throughout the day. The session allows entry for 1 adult and 1 child over the age of 11.

Supervision: Please note that the adult/parent must actively supervise the child at all times and takes responsibility for the child's conduct and safe use of machines. Only children between 11-17yrs are permitted in the session, and it is limited to one child per one supervising adult. If an adult is not supervising the child or the child misuses the gym equipment or misbehaves, both parties may be asked to leave.
