Stay Warm and Fit: Why Your Sports Team Should Train at Planet Fitness This Winter

As the winter chill settles in, team sports training in Victoria and beyond faces a seasonal challenge. Cold mornings, soggy fields, and unpredictable weather can throw a wrench into your weekly training plans — or worse, increase the risk of injury when players aren’t properly warmed up or conditioned. But there’s a better way to keep your team active, motivated, and game-ready this winter: bring your training sessions indoors at Planet Fitness to exercise during winter. 

Why Train Indoors at Planet Fitness?

1. No More Rained-Out Sessions 

Say goodbye to waterlogged fields and muddy drills. Planet Fitness offers a clean, warm, and fully equipped space for teams to stay on track with their winter workout needs — no matter what’s happening outside. Whether you’re a footy team prepping for finals or a netball crew staying sharp in the off-season, our facilities can handle your team’s unique training needs. 

2. Open to Everyone – Members and Non-Members Alike 

Not a member? No problem! We welcome visiting teams. Simply have a chat with your local Club Manager about casual group rates. Whether it’s a one-off training or a regular winter routine, we’ll help you find a flexible and affordable option that works for your team. 

Features That Make Planet Fitness the Perfect Winter Training Ground 

1. Cardio, Strength, and Functional Training – All in One Place 

Our clubs are decked out with everything your team needs to train at their best: 

• Cardio Zone: Get the heart rate up with treadmills, bikes, stairmasters, and rowers – perfect for warm-ups, cardio during winter, endurance work, or conditioning drills. 
• Strength Area: Build power and prevent injuries with access to free weights, smith machines, and both pin- and plate-loaded resistance machines. 
• Functional Training Zone: Keep it dynamic with a dedicated space for bodyweight exercises, mobility work, and agility drills. Ideal for a cold weather workout that builds team fitness.
