Training in Byker

A pool, a wall and plenty of pads.

East End Pool & Gym on Hadrian Square is Better's centre here: a 25 m pool, a teaching pool and a flume, with a gym, a studio, a sauna and a steam room. Towards the Ouseburn, The Valley is a bouldering centre and CrossFit Tyneside runs classes, while NRG Gym at Newcastle Shopping Park has a strength and conditioning zone, a cycling studio and a large female-only area. Striking is well covered by RIOT Boxing, Sor Thanikul Muay Thai, Team Phoenix Martial Arts, Shadowbox and Moi Fa.

Byker Metro station sits in the middle of it all, and the Ouseburn to the south has become one of the city's cultural quarters. Bouldering and pad work both go better with someone else there, so it's worth finding a partner who trains when you do.
