Dubai: Stretch and sweat it out in an outdoor gym with the Burj Khalifa in the background this weekend as the Dubai Fitness Challenge is taking place at Burj Park in Downtown Dubai this weekend.
Organisers have transformed the Burj Park into an outdoor gym for the weekend complete with four mobile fitness units equipped to provide residents and visitors with an incredible range of workout options in the fresh air.
The outdoor gyms will have more than traditional gym equipment as they will have everything from rowing machines to CrossFit trainers and weights equipment to a skate park and parkour training facility. Kids will also have their own special play and fitness zones no matter their age or level of fitness.
The public is invited to get energised and keep motivation levels at an all-time high across the city. DFC offers free access to a variety of energetic workout sessions and fitness classes, on a first-come, first-served basis. They can take advantage of the ninja warrior course that will test their strength and agility.
Those who just want to chill after their workout may sit in the picnic area to get their fill from the wide range of stalls offering fresh and nutritious snacks.
