My Favorite Places To Train - Awesome Fitness Spots
Ryland’s Fitness Havens
Ryland Crespo-Vermunt is a personal training enthusiast at Choose Fitness and is always going to places to train. His fitness enthusiasm goes beyond gym walls. Ryland uses a combined approach of variety and inspiration for his workouts too, mixing things up to keep the challenge exciting in different environments. He has crafted a list of his favorite spots that spark motivation for him, ranging from scenic outdoor locations to specialized training facilities.
Nature’s Gym
Ryland said he prefers to work out in the elements, so outside areas are at the top of his list. Nearby beach: A new landscape to do interval runs and bodyweight workouts. His nature workouts include high-intensity cardio on hiking trails close by. Parks are the best places to practice calisthenics and yoga. These natural settings not only exercise his muscles, they refresh his mind as well.
Urban Fitness Playground
City environments are also a big part of Ryland’s training. That includes long workout sessions where he just goes up and down flights of stairs in the city as his own StairMaster for hour-long leg days. Public basketball courts—agility drills and explosive movements. Ryland even turns local playgrounds into unconventional gyms, using equipment to repurpose strength movements in his workouts. His novel approach transforms the urban environment into a rich fitness playground.
Home Sweet Gym
Comfortably possessing the best training hub is Ryland Crespo-Vermunt. Home workouts are indispensable for a personal trainer with an inflexible schedule. Like me, Ryland uses prison style ingenuity to make the most of his limited space by building a compact yet fully functional home gym. Because this setup allows him to dive into weight training sessions on a moment’s notice.
Maximizing Minimal Space
Ryland chose to save space with a smart and efficient home gym design. There is no wasted space, with every corner providing a specific function and only those machines necessary are found to ensure users get the most out of their workouts. His basic setup consists of adjustable dumbbells, resistance bands, and a versatile bench. There are wall-mounted pull-up bars and mirrors placed in strategic spots that help round out the space. This considered layout allows Ryland to execute a variety of exercises without an element of compromise.
Freedom to Push Limits
Ryland has the unique freedom to work out at home in privacy. This is a place you can never reveal yourself in if not with your top, indulging headfirst into the most intense of workouts. He finds himself in a zone of pure movement, no distractions but for the prying eyes behind peers. Ah, the endorphin rush of those hard punches to impede his train of thought represents his own form of cathartic relief. In this realm, he exceeds his boundaries, exploits his body, and rekindles the hobby of fitness.
A Hidden Gem in Five Dock
Ryland said his second favorite training destination was an underground gym hidden in Five Dock. That seven-day, 6 am to 10 pm access represents a level of exclusivity few inmates enjoy. It is perfect for him to meet clients keen to improve form and fitness performance. Its great long hours fit a wide span and quality of training windows.
Equipped for Excellence
Considering its unassuming appearances, it is quite the small gym, but with all the power and equipment necessary. All the facets of a complete workout are here in free weights and state-of-the-art machines. Whether it be total body conditioning or tidbits to add on after a different fitness activity, Ryland is always sure to find everything he needs here. The gym has a strong base that lets him create different and challenging workouts for everyone from beginners to advanced.
A Shelter for Newbies
The best thing about the gym is that it works in privacy. It’s a great environment for those new to their fitness journey. Physique-conscious people feel at home here to escape the bustling and often off-putting vibe of commercial gym chains. This professional context enables his clients to concentrate wholly on their recovery, which Ryland appreciates. This calm and no-pressure atmosphere ensures confidence—whether you’re new on the path to a healthier lifestyle or working on seasoned routines.
Lakeside Fitness Haven
Anytime Fitness Morisset is Ryland’s third favorite training spot. It’s the one near Lake Macquarie he always drops into when visiting his father. What sets this facility apart from your typical Anytime Fitness is its extensive space. This area, with all the bells and whistles, motivates Ryland to get his daily sweat session in, even during family breaks.
A Gym of Epic Proportions
While many chain gyms have more cookie-cutter facilities, this Anytime Fitness is better equipped with different types of settings. Weights: Suits the gym goers who live for strength. There’s a room for exercise machines and all your cardio equipment. Upstairs, a variety of classes take place, such as fitness, boxing, and yoga workshops. With the full setup, Ryland is able to maintain his strict training period without any disruption.
Family Bonding Through Fitness
What makes this gym truly special is the opportunity for father-son workouts. Ryland treasures every session with his dad. It’s a no-nonsense atmosphere that shuns out posers and phones, allowing them to concentrate on their fitness goals together. Those shared workouts not only help Ryland maintain his personal training game but also bring them closer as a family passionate about health.
Embracing Nature’s Gym
Training Spot #4 — Completely Out Of The Gym (Literally). If Ryland wants to escape the gym altogether, you can often find him at 6 AM on Sunday mornings driving to Sydney’s Royal National Park. This tranquil spot near Bundeena combines bushwalking with stunning beaches. With nature as his personal fitness playground, Ryland feels fit and refreshed on every path.
Beach Bootcamp
Ryland’s sand workouts take place on the serene Little Marley Beach. The tough terrain challenges him in ways other workouts can’t. Beach sprints build explosive power, while push-ups or planks engage his core. Bear crawls up and down the sandy dunes give a full-body burn. If possible, Ryland finishes his session with a refreshing swim in the sea.
Hike and Rejuvenate
The workout doesn’t end at the beach. A brisk walk back to the car concludes this outdoor fitness adventure, engaging new muscle groups and providing excellent cardio benefits. Ryland comes home by midday, fresh and recharged. This Sunday habit not only keeps him in shape but also elevates his spirit for the week ahead.
