Spain-based Metropolitan opens 18th club
The pool is used for water-based personal training
Spanish operator Metropolitan has opened its latest club in Gijón - the 18th in its portfolio.
The 3,500sq m (38,000sq ft) club is located in the city's El Molinón stadium - home to Sporting de Gijón football team.
It embraces the operator's philosophy of 'feeling good' with a wide range of facilities encompassing sport, health and wellbeing, relaxation and beauty.
These include an extensive fitness suite, a series of studios and a swimming pool for lane swimming and pool-based personal training.
The fitness suite is divided into zones: strength, CV and stretching.
Equipment suppliers include Life Fitness, Keiser, Technogym and Power Plate.
There's also a pilates studio, a PT studio with reformers, a group cycling studio and a further group activity studio.
These facilities are complemented by a physiotherapy offering and a nutritionist/dietician service.
Meanwhile, a beauty salon offers a range of treatments - from massages and facials, through ayurveda and Asian-influenced treatments, to laser hair removal and pedicures.
Meanwhile a 'Spa Balneario' houses wet facilities including a Turkish bath, sauna, ice fountain, whirlpool, experience showers, hydrotherapy pool, water beds and a relaxation area.
In spite of this wide range of services and facilities, membership at the new club starts at just 49 euro (US$63, £39) a month.
Metropolitan currently operates a portfolio of 18 full-service clubs across Spain, with two further sites scheduled to open in the next two years.
