Fitness Park Meerhoven
Fitness Park Meerhoven (Beweegpark Meerhoven) is an initiative of residents in Meerhoven and is meant for everyone who enjoys exercising in the healthy outdoor air. It is a unique ‘outdoor sports school’ with equipment. A place that brings people together, where children, parents and the elderly can exercise together.
Location
The fitness park is located at the entrance of Sports Park Meerhoven, Het Schaapsdijk 109, 5657 AW Eindhoven. It has been decided to start small. If the initiative is a success, perhaps more of these meeting places may be setup in Meerhoven.
Training
The fitness park consists of eight devices with which a complete training program can be carried out. The devices are designed for anyone with a length of 1.40 meters or larger. The fitness park is equipped with a sign with instructions. Also, each device is labelled with a QR code with which the exercise program for the specific device can be accessed via a smartphone and a special Fitness App. The app can also be used to track results and to encourage friends, acquaintances and other neighbours to participate.
Activity program
In collaboration with the primary schools, the youth center, sports clubs, senior group Meerhoven 55+ and Health Center Meerhoven, an activity program will soon be drawn up.
