Training in Fordbridge

A 33 m pool and a lot of mats.

The big one here is North Solihull Sports Centre on Conway Road, run by Everyone Active, with a 33 m pool, a learner pool, a 120-station gym and a six-court sports hall. Foundry Gym and Fast Fitness cover open-access lifting, and the fight scene is unusually deep for one neighbourhood: Alento BJJ, Kronk Birmingham (Wayne Elcock's Box Clever), Temple Martial Arts, GKR Karate, Andrew Rheeston Martial Arts and Striking Fusion all have a base here.

Meriden Park, off Moorend Avenue, has a free parkour and street workout area with rows of high and low pull-up bars, and tennis courts nearby. Centurion Running Club is on the list too, so a running partner or a calisthenics buddy is easy to find from here.
