Get sporty in Valencia 🇪🇸

Purple Star emoji 22 items
Valencia is a very sporty city. In the Turia park you can find people running, walking and cycling, but there are a lot of sports clubs and gyms available. Here are my tips for your sporty adventure! I love the variation and I will add more later.

Gym membership 💳

If you're staying a bit longer, you may consider a membership? These are easy to sign up, and easy to cancel after a month, or two, or three.

This is how I do it! I love variation and use classpass to go to HIIT, pilates, yoga, strength. ClassPass has great options in Valencia and all of Spain.

Ok, holding my hands up here - I'm not a gym person myself so I can't say I've been here. But it's a cheap membership that you can cancel after a month. They have a couple of branches.

Pilates & yoga 🧘🏼‍♀️

I like to do strength, cardio and then top it off with pilates and yoga for flexibility and again, strength (but differently). These studios are great, but I will try more in the future.

I visit this studio for Reformer Pilates and they ahve amazing teachers and tough, practical classes. This event sounds so fun though, I will go.

It's also where my fave Trib3 is, the Reformer Pilates sister with great classes for strength and flexibility. You can book separate classes.

Yes I'm crazy because I do hot pilates in this weather. It makes me feel more flexible and I like the sweat. Strong classes, little weights. I would recommend this if you want to feel your workout.

Hot & sweaty 🥵

I am a big fan of sweaty workouts. I do classes though, someone needs to tell me what we're doing, I just do it and after an hour I burned tons of kcal. Great! Come join me…

You will definitely find me here 💪🏻. One hour HIIT with Trib3 equals a couple of croquettas! Do it 🏋️‍♀️

This is on my list, but forgive me for not trying yet, it was a hot sunny summer. It looks like a great way to make friends and spend a Sunday afternoon.

Explore on two wheels 🚲

I think it's obivous that I love cycling, it's fast, but slow enough to look around, you get everywhere because you decide where to go, and whilst you have all those benefits already, you're also moving your body! Win win win

Turia Park is long, stretchy, it's everywhere! You can walk, run, cycle (or also great for lazy afternoons, but that's not what we're discussing here)
