🇬🇧 University of Nottingham Gym – Seriously Impressive!
I’d always heard how amazing the gym at UoN’s Park Campus was – so I got a monthly pass to try it out. Right at the entrance, there’s a photo of Deng Yaping 🏓 – she studied here! How cool is that? 🚴 Indoor Cycling 30 minutes of intense pedaling – super sweaty and the music was hype! 🔥 Abs Blast 15-minute core blast 💥 – short but tough. There were partner drills which made it fun! 🧘 Yoga 1 hour, super chill – barely broke a sweat. They started with relaxation meditation… I closed my eyes and almost fell asleep 😴! I only realized we’d started when I heard people moving… so awkward! Hope the instructor and others didn’t think I was clueless lol (my listening skills need work 👂😅). 💃 Zumba 45 minutes – my FAVORITE! It’s like Latin dance, super fun and energetic. 🏋️ Pilates 1 hour. First session was gentle, second focused on glutes – a bit tougher, but still easier compared to classes back in China. ⏱️ HIIT 30 minutes – THE toughest session! Cycling, battle ropes, step drills, kettlebells… four rounds non-stop. I was drenched 💦 and my thighs were so sore the next day I could barely walk! 😫 🎯 Membership also includes booking access to: table tennis, badminton, swimming, climbing, snooker, squash 🏸🎱🧗... Plus all the gym equipment: treadmills, stair climbers, ellipticals, rowers – no booking needed. The variety is insane! Sadly, I’m always in a rush after class 🏃♀️… 📌 Membership works across all 3 campuses: Annual卡: £249 Monthly: £39 Pay-as-you-go: £7 (+ £10 yearly admin fee) Great value if you have the time! Wishing everyone good health and an even better body 😉💖 #UniversityOfNottingham #CampusGym #UoNFitness #StudentLife #NottinghamUni
