Training in Radford

Chain gyms and fight training.

Radford is the inner-city district just west of the centre where Raleigh and Player's once had their factories, and where much of Saturday Night and Sunday Morning was set. Today it has two chain gyms, The Gym Group Nottingham Radford and JD Gyms Nottingham, plus Rebels Fitness for personal training. Daniyaal's Martial Arts Academy, Team Valentine Boxing Club, Nottingham Taekwondo Club and a kung fu association cover combat sports.

Radford has a large student population from both universities, so lots of people here are looking for someone to train with. Two chain gyms with long hours make it easy to line up sessions.
