Expect:
It will challenge you.
It will push you.
And youâll finish feeling unbelievably proud of yourself.
What Youâll Actually Be Doing
This isnât complicated.
Itâs not confusing.
And you wonât need a PhD in fitness terminology to understand it.
On the day, youâll take on:
đ„ A 9-Station Fitness Challenge
Nine stations.
Nine functional fitness tests.
One missionâŠ
Complete all exercises as quickly as you can.
Youâll move through each station in order, working your way through a carefully designed series of challenges that test:
The clock startsâŠ
You take on all 9 stationsâŠ
The clock stops when you finish the final rep.
Simple. Clear. Properly challenging.
Built For Real People
This isnât elite-only.
This isnât intimidating.
This isnât âyou must be super fit to enterâ.
The Sunderland Fitness Games is designed to be:
If you train in a gym, you can do this.
If youâre newer to hybrid-style training, you can do this.
If you want something that pushes you without terrifying you⊠this is it.
The super-fit can push hard.
The everyday gym-goer can step up confidently.
Doubles teams can strategise.
Solo athletes can test their engine.
You donât need to be the fittest in the room.
You just need to be willing to give it your best shot.
And rememberâŠ
đ« Still no running.
You will challenge your cardiovascular fitness, strength and enduranceâŠ
But you will not be running.
