Exercise Programmes

As part of being a member of the Sherborne Fitness Centre a programming service is also provided. We take into account your individual goals and requirements and then tailor a programme of exercise to suit your needs.

Bodystats

The Fitness Centre uses a ‘Bodystat’ machine to calculate your body’s composition – detailing percentage body fat, lean tissue, how hydrated you are and how many calories you should be eating in a day (estimated).
We can then use this data as a monitoring tool to see how your training programme and or weight management programme is progressing.
Note - Bodystats are available to all Sports Centre members.

Referral Class

The Fitness Centre runs several referral classes, based on a 6 week programme with a dedicated member of the Fitness team who heavily supervises the user whilst their prescribed programme is carried out. Please note that Referrals are only accepted from doctors and physiotherapists.

As a compliment to your gym workout we have arranged pool time afterwards, so that you can relax or continue your rehabilitation program in the water.
