Whether you want to work on your dream body, train for a race, or get your sweat on for good health, it is never too late to kickstart your fitness journey for your physical and mental health.
Besides the irresistible classes on offer, Virgin Active, the world’s leading fitness club, also hosts large Gym Floors, that are fully equipped to offer the ultimate exercising experience for every kind of fit.

Whether you love or hate it, cardio is a great form of exercise that can offer endless benefits from burning calories to help you get closer to that dream body, down to building cardiovascular strength to help with blood circulation. Virgin Active offers a spacious gym floor for you to run, walk, cycle, row, or ski in the expansive cardio zones.

Functional Training
Functional training is an exercise that is adapted and developed from a sport, or daily life by combining multiple movements and exercises together to build strong muscles, endurance as well as enhance stamina and balance. With an assortment of equipment to help you boost different areas of fitness across different body parts, such as dumbbells, barbells, exercise balls and ropes along with many other equipment. This zone has everything you need to take your HIIT workouts to the next level.
More than that, if you are looking to push your limits to the max, Virgin Active is now inviting everyone to ignite your inner fighter at the Spartan Race Thailand 2022 competition. The race will be held at Blue Tree Phuket with special offers from Virgin Active such as:
- One day free exercise at the Virgin Active club for 100 competitors, applicable at all Virgin Active branches.
- A full 1-hour Virgin Active x Spartan Race Training prep class at Siam Discovery. Whereby, contestants and Virgin Active members can participate in the event on 14 and 21 November 2022 at 5:00 PM.
Virgin Active Gym Floor offers the perfect training ground for the Spartan Race. Pasakorn Seesua or ‘Coach Joe’ from Virgin Active advises anyone looking to join the Spartan Race as quoted, “The Spartan Race is a sport that primarily uses both muscle strength and cardio. Therefore, we should put in a lot of training to develop the cardiovascular endurance, especially through running. At the same time, it important to also focus on strengthening the muscles, especially in the back and forearm areas to prepare our bodies for the intensity of the Spartan Race.”
“I encourage everyone to try it. Acquire more information on each base and learn techniques to avoid performing the race penalty, which is the burpees. It is also a great opportunity to strengthen the muscles and your cardiovascular endurance, with focus on running to yield better results,” Panaikorn Triranumpongwanich or ‘Coach P’ from Virgin Active added.
