Water Workout
Lapping the pool is not the only way to get a workout in the water. Why not try something new with our water workouts. Combining aqua aerobics with strength and conditioning moves, a workout in the water will get your heart pumping without putting pressure on joints. Our Water Workout classes are available on Wednesday's at 15.00pm and 19.05pm.
Health Suite
The health suite at Better Fulwood Leisure Centre consists of a sauna and steam room, and is located just off poolside with a small relaxation space.
The steam room will help to relax, alter moods, ease muscle tension, cure and prevent cold and flu symptoms, combat stress. While the sauna not only feels good, it’s good for your body. Whether it’s the physiological changes that occur during the warmth of a sauna, or if it’s simply the time spent in the calming and still retreat of the sauna, every seasoned sauna bather agrees - it feels wonderful!
