Caistor Grammar School Fitness Suite

Caistor Grammar School has a fitness suite with amenities that compare favourably to facilities in Grimsby or Lincoln. The suite, is open to the public at evenings and weekends along with an outdoor synthetic pitch for hockey and football.

The fitness suite comprises 8 pieces of cardiovascular equipment, 4 pieces of resistance equipment, free weights and a stretching area. Students and the local community benefit from the state-of-the art fitness facilities, provided by Technogym UK, and are part-funded by the Inclusive Fitness Initiative (IFI).

The IFI aims to provide physical activity to all, regardless of disability - physical or mental - that a person may have, in an environment that can optimise their potential and improve every aspect of their fitness.

Technogyms computerised Wellness System has been installed, allowing members to view their progress in anticipation of results they can actually feel and see in their body which makes for a unique experience. Upon becoming a member (for the returnable deposit of £10) each person will be assigned a TGS key that stores the exercise programme data and transfers it to the equipment they have selected.

Qualified fitness instructors are at hand to instruct and prescribe relevant exercise programmes for all members.

The new suite enables the school to develop and improve the services and sporting facilities it offers to the local community. Previously, the other fitness suites within the area were at De Aston School, Market Rasen and Leisure Centres in Grimsby. But now local people are able to access a selection of fitness facilities on their doorstep.

The fitness suite is open to the public weekdays between 5pm and 9pm and weekends between 8pm and 2pm. After an initial one-off induction fee of £15, the membership fee is £18 per month which allows for unlimited use, or £4.20 per session.
