FREE Outdoor Gym Equipment for the Campus Community

The team at the University of Sussex Campus Sports Centre were looking to provide an outdoor fitness area to help enhance all areas of performance sport at Sussex, as well as offering a free resource for the campus community during general opening hours. Supported by the Sussex Alumni and Friends of the University, they aim was to also provide a space that could support the very busy gym, giving the students an area outside where they can be active.

Providing Outdoor Fitness Facilities for Students to Stay Active

Working with the University Campus Sports team, together we created a versatile fitness area that provides a fantastic outdoor space for students to be healthy and active. The new outdoor fitness area provides students with access to a range of outdoor gym equipment, including some calisthenics equipment such as parallel bars.

The facility will support student athletes as they develop their strength and conditionings, helping the Student Sports Clubs consistently climb the British Universities and Sports (BUCS) rankings year on year. As well as providing a great space for non-active students and members of staff to learn about training and how best to use the facility, the Campus Sports Team will be offering boot camps, circuit training and body weight workouts with guidance from top instructors.

The equipment comprises of a boot camp base frame with accessories including: dip bars, steps, as well as sport markings on artificial grass and rubber wetpour. All of which offers scalability in training to provide a facility that can support student and staff of all ages and abilities to meet their health and fitness goals.
