Bored of working out in the gym or cycling outdoors? How about heading for a virtual workout? Sounds interesting right? GFX in Business Bay has a new indoor cycling exercise that is one-of-a-kind and is sure to get you hooked.
The highlight is that its not any normal indoor cycling. In GFX, fitness freaks get to sweat it out amidst a virtual setting. Titled ‘The Trip’ the virtual cycling will take you on a surreal tour, even as you remain indoors. Participants will be seated on cycles, riding through a virtual world that unfolds ahead of them.
What Is The Trip?
Trip is a multi-peak indoor cycling workout which takes you on a journey through digitally-created worlds. Fitness freaks can guided to a dark room, complete with a huge curved screen and a great soundtrack. The next 40 minutes is like being in a computer game.
You will see yourself cycling up hills, dizzy drops, and even racing in an Olympic sized stadium, with people hooting. Sounds interesting right?
The best part is that the ambiance is so vibrant you can be assured not to feel bored or tired. As Glen Stollery, the head of Les Mills Middle East, explained: “We wanted to bring technology into an exercise space and open it up to a new market. Bring millennials in, and merge exercise and tech into one experience. We call it excer-tainment.”
