60 minutes with a Naked Personal Trainer at Sweatbox…
Meet Oz, he calls Sweatbox his home gym. Even though the sauna is busy day and night, the fully equipped gay London gym is a personal trainer’s dream. It’s relatively quiet, so there is no wasting personal workout time waiting for machines or equipment.
Where can we find you?
You can find me hosting Naked Workouts on selective Sundays at Sweatbox. Otherwise, I carry out private one to one sessions at a convenient time for my clients.
Do I have to be a member?
You don’t. Although, after a workout with me, I would highly recommend you reap the health benefits of the steam, infrared sauna and jacuzzi. Sweatbox offers day passes which are also valid for 24 hours.
Do I also have to be naked?
During Sunday naked workouts, it is compulsory. However, working with me on a 1:1 basis, it’s optional.
Why naked training, surely no work gets done?
On the opposite, I’m a qualified personal trainer and represent the National Volleyball Team for Turkey, so I take my craft seriously. When I work with training my clients, I use my body as reference points instead of paperwork – it’s easier to remember a muscle group if you see it (i.e. glutes)
Is this a gay gym in London?
It’s a fully equipped gym and it is predominantly used by gay and bi men. Everyone is welcome, no matter what fitness level you are at.
Why Sweatbox?
It’s Soho. It is 24 hours and I’m glad to be part of a company that operates for our gay community. Oh, and the foam parties are a scream!
The Sweatbox Naked Workout is every Sunday between 2pm and 4pm. Personal trainers are in attendance for 60 minutes.
