A rooftop gym at a fitness club in Finland

There is nothing better than being outdoors in the summer. A completely new outdoor activity was created when the Muscle Beach gym opened in the GoGo City fitness club on the rooftop of a seventh-floor building in the heart of Tampere, Finland. Lappset supplied the unique facility with a range of outdoor gym products.

According to Vuokko Vähätalo, Programme Director of GoGo Fitness Clubs and GoGo Express Gyms, the roof terrace boasts a magnificent range of different kinds of equipment. Lappset supplied the gym with monkey bars, a dip station, a fitness box, and battling ropes. The gym also features a squat and bench press station. Other equipment includes kettlebells, weights, and a TRX rope.

"We are extremely excited about this setup. As our roof terrace is located next door to our spinning studio, our summer training calendar includes a class called MuscleSpin, which combines a cardiovascular workout on spinning bikes and strength training in the Muscle Beach outdoor gym. Our customers alternate between the two throughout the class and get an excellent whole-body workout", Vuokko Vähätalo explains.

Outdoor gym products are the perfect solution

Weather resistance was an important criterion for the choice of products for the rooftop gym. “We have no plans to cover the rooftop gym at the moment, which is why it is very important that the products can withstand different weather conditions and survive the winter”, Vähätalo says. She is also extremely pleased with Lappset’s service, both in terms of the products and the assembly. GoGo City’s rooftop gym was the only one of its kind in Finland when it was built.

"We are very excited about this project! Since our rooftop terrace is right next to our spinning room, we have a class on our summer training calendar called MuscleSpin, where the cardio portion is done on the spinning bikes, and the strength portion on our Muscle Beach terrace gym. These are alternated during the hour to get a great full-body workout," says Vuokko Vähätalo.
