Liverpool residents get their third free outdoor gym

July 11, 2013

Liverpool City Council have unveiled another outdoor gym at Lakeside Park in the suburb of Wattle Grove.

The free-to-use outdoor is the Council's third in its local government area.

Liverpool City Mayor, Ned Mannoun, said that the outdoor gyms have proven popular with residents, stating "many residents are taking advantage of these free facilities to keep fit and trim.

"Liverpool City Council is focused on creating a healthy and inclusive city where we promote a healthy and active lifestyle for our residents by offering appealing parks and playgrounds like this new outdoor gym.

"The gyms focus on cardio vascular training as well as strength training and stretching exercises for a broad range of ages and fitness levels."

The Council urges residents to exercise "at their own pace" when using the equipment and follow the signage for each exercise.
