parkHIIT is a social enterprise promoting the importance of resistance exercise through our free weekly workouts in local parks.
About this Event

Why?

We don't exercise enough in Ireland and when we do it's almost always cardiovascular exercise (heart health) that gets promoted. The equally important resistance exercises that support our bones, muscles and joints don't get nearly enough attention. parkHIIT's mission is to change that by promoting the importance of resistance exercise through our free weekly workouts.


Impact

parkHIIT removes barriers. The first barrier we remove is the intimidation barrier. Many people think resistance exercise or strength training means lifting heavy weights in a gym. With parkHIIT, we show how simple resistance exercise can be with our free introductory bodyweight only workouts in a fun outdoor group setting.

We also remove the financial barrier. parkHIIT workouts are free!


Location

parkHIIT Ballyfermot takes place in the People's Park in Ballyfermot. Click here to see the exact location. We'll meet at 9.25AM so come early and say hello.


What to Expect?

- 5 minute warm up.

- 20 minutes of (reasonably) high intensity. We'll complete a circuit based on bodyweight only resistance exercises.

- 5 minute warm down.

Who Am I Up Against?

You're only up against one person at parkHIIT and that's yourself. You push yourself as hard as you can/want! Rain, hail or shine we will be working out. Email [email protected] with any questions.


What Do I Need to Bring?

If you don't like grass (wet or otherwise) please bring your own mat. Wear comfortable clothing and footwear and be prepared for the (Irish) weather. Bring a bottle of water and your own bodyweight. You should keep a social distance from everyone else.
