Powerhouse & Phoenix Gym

If you are in the Whitehaven area and are looking to attend a gym without the need to sign up for a membership then this gym has everything you need. Powerhouse Gym in Whitehaven is run by a championship bodybuilder. What is more, the gym has a separate suite, Phoenix Gym, that is for women only. Both gyms are open 24-hours a day, so you can drop in at any time.

The gym is located a short distance from the West Cumberland Hospital in south Whitehaven. Memberships are available for £30 a month, whilst one-off visits cost £4 with discounts available for those on benefits, pensioners, students and under 16s.

The gym is crammed with equipment. In the main gym the cardiovascular equipment is housed on a mezzanine level overlooking the strength training area. Here you will find treadclimbers, steppers, exercise bikes, a stairmaster, treadmills and more. The Phoenix Suite has much of the same equipment and women can use both areas.

In a separate room, you will find a X-Fit Vibro Plate and additional charges apply for its use.

For strength training you will find a hamstring curl, deadlift machine, front squat machine, a bicep curl, shoulder lat raise machine, leg and chest presses, plus multi gyms and more.
