Gym chain provides free access fitness platform

Anytime Fitness is giving free access to its online fitness platform, AF Connect Online, to help keep people active in  lockdown.

The platform features over 70 on-demand exercise classes, exclusive wellbeing content from leading health experts and member discounts from leading brands including Myprotein and Virgin Experience Days.

With all Anytime Fitness clubs locally and individually owned, the free trial aims to support local communities in getting active and enjoying the physical and mental health benefits of exercise.

“Making AF Connect Online free to everyone furthers our commitment to supporting the nation to become healthier, even when they’re unable to set foot in a gym,” said Neil Randall, CEO of Anytime Fitness UK. 

“Community is at the heart of all of our locally owned clubs and we hope that people of all ages and levels of fitness experience will benefit from this. Recent stats show that over a third of people are doing less exercise in this lockdown and we want to play our part in getting people moving and motivated again.”
