Future Developments at Plas Menai Health and Fitness

Exciting improvements coming soon!
We are delighted to share news of a significant investment into the facilities at Plas Menai Health and Fitness. We will be investing over £450,000, which will include the creation of a brand new gym and group exercise studio. 
 

What is happening?

Building works will start shortly to repurpose some existing rooms within the main centre. These building works will be extensive and will create a dedicated, modern and well equipped gym for the local community.

The gym will consist of 35 stations, with a comprehensive mix of cardio machines, fixed resistance machines and free weights each within a dedicated ‘zone’. Particular highlights will include:

  • Treadmills, Cross-Trainers and Bikes with a range of different consoles including 16 inch “SE4” touch screens with full internet connectivity and a wide range of immersive on-demand workouts
  • Top of the range “Insignia” fixed resistance equipment 
  • An extensive range of cable resistance equipment from the “Signature” range including rows, pulls and a dual adjustable pulley.
  • A squat rack and integrated deadlifting platform
  • Olympic flat bench press and dumbbells up to 40kg
  • A functional training and stretch area, including Ski Erg, Rowing Machines and Air Bike
     

What other changes are being made?

There will also be works to convert a separate room into a multi-use group exercise and conference space. This will be used as a studio for a wide range of group exercise classes and indoor cycling, whilst also being bookable as an ideal conference room for meetings and events.

Classes hosted in the studio will initially include favourites from Les Mills including BodyPump throughout the day and evening to suit local residents’ busy schedules.
 

What are the proposed dates of refurb?
The project is scheduled to take place between now and mid-May, with the exact dates due to be confirmed nearer the time.

We are working hard with the various contractors to confirm dates as soon as possible.  Follow us on our new Plas Menai Health and Fitness dedicated social media pages, to be amongst the first to know.

We expect the exercise studio works to be completed first, with classes commencing from Wednesday 01 April. An initial timetable of classes will be released soon.

The gym works, which are more extensive, will be completed, ready for the new equipment to be installed w/c 11 May - opening immediately afterwards.
 

Can I still use the Centre?

Yes! You can still use the centre as normal. Other areas of the centre, including the swimming pool and outdoor areas will be completely unaffected.

We will endeavor to keep the disruption to an absolute minimum throughout the project. 
 

What will happen with the existing gym?

The existing gym will remain open for members to use throughout this project. This will ensure you can continue with your current exercise programme whilst you look forward to the opening of the new gym.

Once the new gym is open, we will be removing the equipment from the existing gym and repurposing that space into an indoor cycle studio - follow us on social media for further updates.
 

How will I know how to use the new equipment?

All members wishing to use the new equipment will be able to book in for a gym induction. This will be a 1:1 session with a member of staff who will spend time showing you the equipment and making sure you’re confident and competent using it.
 

What will happen to my membership?

There will be no changes to your existing membership. All memberships will be unaffected by this project and payments will continue as per normal. Founder members will remain on the same monthly direct debit payment plan.
 

How will I know what’s going on?

We will send out emails with full details,and provide updates on our social media channels. This FAQ’s page will also be kept up to date throughout the project.
