🌲 From the Carrickfergus Woods to the Bangor Coast: The Next Chapter for Forest Fitness NI! 🌲
It’s hard to believe it’s been over a decade since we first launched our outdoor bootcamps in Carrickfergus back in 2014. What started as a mission to get people out of stuffy gyms and into the fresh air has grown into an incredible community of dedicated, resilient individuals. For 12 years, we’ve shared the mud, flipped the tyres, conquered the elements, and pushed through the burn together.
Now, we are thrilled to announce our next major deployment: Forest Fitness NI is officially bringing our bootcamps to Bangor!
The Carrickfergus Legacy
When we set up our first circuits in Carrickfergus, the goal was simple: provide raw, highly effective fitness training that tests the body and builds the mind. We didn’t rely on mirrors or air conditioning. Instead, we built a foundation on functional outdoor fitness, obstacle course training, boxercise, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
Over the years, we’ve watched our Carrickfergus members transform. We’ve seen people conquer our obstacle courses, discover a new level of endurance, and forge bonds that only come from putting in the hard work side-by-side in the great outdoors.
Boots on the Ground in Bangor
We know Bangor has a thriving, active community, and it’s time to introduce a new way to train. If you are tired of the same old treadmill routine and want to see what you are truly capable of, this is your call to action.
Our Bangor beach bootcamps will deliver the exact same no-nonsense, high-energy coaching that put Forest Fitness NI on the map. We are bringing the equipment, the expertise, and the motivation—you just need to bring the grit.
