OUT SPIN
IN VERSACLIMBING
Think spin is tough? Think again. Huge in America owing to studios such as CLMBR in Los Angeles and Rise Nation in New York, Versaclimbing is the cardio class to boast about — and it makes you sweat like never before. The machine forces you to perform a continuous climbing motion, engaging the largest muscles in your upper and lower body. Once the inside secret of professional sports stars and the A-list (Andy Murray swears by it, as does Jennifer Aniston), it’s hard work and high intensity but has low impact on your joints. Add flashing lights and a soundtrack that wouldn’t be out of place in an Ibizan nightclub, and you’ve got yourself a thrilling workout. Book a 45-minute Climb to the Beat class at BXR gyms in London, where prices start at £35 for an intro pack of three. In Newcastle, David Fairlamb Fitness studio runs 30-minute sessions starting at £10. Or, if you fancy climbing from the comfort of your living room, try the VersaClimber Home (£1,595).
