Handy! This way you can exercise for free in our city

Now that the eating days, or, er, holidays, are over, Zoetermeer is preparing for the annual weight-loss race. Get rid of those Christmas kilos. Before you take out a very expensive subscription with all your good intentions, we would like to point out a few free sports places in our city.

As a Burgundian, you may have missed this, but there is a new trend in the sports world: calisthenics. This is a form of training where you use your own body weight to build strength and fitness. Easier to say: you train by hanging around the rings like a monkey.

You can train here for free

The municipality of Zoetermeer would like to promote this playful way of exercising. That’s why there are several great places where you can do this for free. There is one in the Burgemeester Van Tuyll Park and close to the De Vrijbuiter nature playground. For an overview of all calisthenics parks, please visit this card.

Do you have no idea what to do with those rings and rods? Don’t panic. This is a public sports venue, so there’s a good chance there’s a fanatic you can pull on your sleeve. Maybe you’ll find a workout buddy!
