[Topic] Let's go to the Gym

Do you like to go to the gym? I personally prefer to exercise by myself. Either going for a jog outside or just doing some HIIT exercise at home. What about you?



A gym is also called a health club, fitness club, fitness center, or health spa.

There is usually a main workout area, which contains free weights (like dumbbells) and exercise machines.

Here are some group exercise classes are listed below:

  • Aerobics: a form of physical exercise that combines rhythmic aerobic exercise with stretching and strength training routines

  • Cycling (spinning): using a special stationary exercise bicycle with a weighted flywheel in a classroom setting

  • Boxercise: a high intensity interval training class based on boxing training.

  • Zumba: combines Latin dance, hip-hop, martial arts, and resistance training in an upbeat fitness choreography that makes working out tons of fun

  • Yoga: combines breathing techniques, exercise and meditation

  • TRX (Total Body Resistance Exercise): using a TRX suspension along with your body weight and gravity as resistance to build strength, balance, coordination, flexibility, core and joint stability.
