Training in Stapleford

Independent gyms and a hill to run.

Stapleford has no chain gym, but it has a cluster of independents. Tathams Gym & Fitness at Crane House on Bessell Lane is open 6am to 10pm on weekdays, and Muscle Tone Gym, the PEAKMYBODY Performance Suite and Bold Fitness are close by. Elevate MMA covers mixed martial arts, Radiance Yoga UK runs yoga, and Stapleford Town Football Club and three outdoor basketball courts are on the list too.

Above the town, the Hemlock Stone on Stapleford Hill is a sandstone outcrop around 200 million years old, a natural turnaround point for a hill run. The tram terminus at Toton Lane is about a mile south. A training partner makes the climb more likely to happen.
