From London to Singapore and from Los Angeles to Montpellier a new generation of fitness temples are combining nutritional advice, fitness equipment and expert support to ensure that every stage of the experience is tailored to the needs of Optimisers.

Gravity Club, Fitness First’s Singaporean innovation hub, combines exercise, wellness therapy and nutrition with executive suites, so members can train their bodies and flex those corporate muscles.
