8 New Ways To Work Out This Month

From the new high-tech studio to have on your radar to the personal trainers specialising in Pilates, strength work and more, here are some new and interesting ways to work out this December…

THE BUZZ-WORTHY STUDIO: Third Space Mayfair

If you’re itching to get back to the gym, Third Space’s new spot on Curzon Street in Mayfair will more than make up for months of working out at home. At the group’s seventh club you’ll find plenty of high-tech fitness equipment, including a Wattbike zone, Skill-Run treadmills and a 12m sled track for strength work, as well as UV-filtered air. Post-workout, chill out in the sea salt-walled sauna, refuel at the on-site café, which serves macro-balanced meals, and make use of the laundry service, so you’ll always have fresh kit in your locker ready for your next session.

THE TECH: Vaha

Take your home workouts to the next level with Vaha, the UK’s first interactive fitness mirror. The cutting-edge device beams a personal trainer into your living room, and is loaded with more than 200 different routines, whatever your exercise goal or preference. Meanwhile, the mirror analyses your movements to help correct form and technique, whether you’re tuning into a HIIT, cardio, yoga or barre class. Vaha also allows users to book personalised sessions with real trainers, as well as offering live classes throughout the day. When switched off, it looks like a chunky, contemporary mirror, and you can connect five user profiles per membership, making it a top choice for active households.
