This will be one of the first outdoor street/calistehics workout areas in the South East and the first purpose-built one in County Carlow.
This project received funding through the Town & Village Renewal Scheme.
A type of physical training known as callisthenics or street workout aims to teach you how to master your own bodyweight with the least amount of equipment. The calisthenic/street workout equipment has QR codes that can be scanned with a mobile device to reveal usage guidelines for each piece of equipment.
Through exercise in our Town Park, people will be able to develop healthy habits and enhance their own physical and mental well-being. This is the goal of the calisthenic/street workout area installation. The street workout area and callisthenics will make fitness accessible to all. You receive extra vitamin D in addition to all the advantages of an indoor gym, such as flexibility, enhanced blood flow, and strength training.
The Carlow Municipal District Office has added an outdoor table tennis and outdoor curveball tables to the calisthenic/street workout area. Curveball is a sport that involves using a curved table with a football. Playing it is incredibly simple and enjoyable, and it will help you get better at other ball sports as well.
