TRIB3, which describes itself a ‘boutique fitness concept’, is bringing back its flagship gym on Ecclesall Road at the earliest possible opportunity following the relaxation of lockdown rules. Bosses say some of its ‘most active customers’ will be allowed inside at 12.05am on July 25, before the session begins at 12.15am. An announcement said the event will allow members to ‘celebrate being able to reunite, safely, for the first in-studio workout since lockdown began’, adding: “The session will be led by one of TRIB3’s top coaches supported by the store team to ensure attendees can have an amazing workout experience while being safely distanced and Covid-secure.” Participants can look forward to the gym’s ‘signature lighting, custom playlists and the unforgettable interval bell which signals attendees to change zones between treadmills, resistance and intensity’. TRIB3 specialises in HIIT – high-intensity interval training – workouts, which combine short bursts of intense exercise with periods of rest or less strenuous activity. Customers engage in programmed 45-minute sessions in which they can burn up to 1,000 calories; they are also invited to enjoy a ‘protein shake mixology bar’ as part of the facilities. The Sheffield gym is part of a collective of fitness studios that includes sites in China, Finland, Russia and Spain. Leigh Sanders, head of product at TRIB3, said: ‘We are really excited to host this exclusive reopening ‘night’ session with a group of our most dedicated TRIB3Rs – we’ve been training together virtually throughout the lockdown but getting our community back to the studio has felt like a long time coming. "This very unique session is our way of celebrating that milestone. To be the first studio in the country to reopen its doors just makes the moment extra special.” Gyms can reopen on July 25 alongside leisure centres and indoor pools, while following strict guidelines. Culture secretary Oliver Dowden said the move would help ensure the country was ‘match-fit to defeat the virus’. Editor's message: Thank you for reading this story.
