Kiss Gyms has announced the opening of a new nightclub-themed low cost health club at a former bank in the centre of Swindon - the operator's second 24-hour location.

The 14,500sq ft (1,347sq m) building was rejuvenated by development partner Createability over 13 weeks and houses 150 pieces of Matrix cardiovascular and strength equipment.

A functional training area at Kiss Swindon boasts a number of Bodycore training platforms from Dynamic Activity – forming part of Kiss Gyms' efforts to enhance the club's appeal.

Kiss Gyms owner Rupert Mackenzie-Hill said: Our personal trainers are massively keen on the Bodycore platforms. They are so versatile that the instructors can create an endless variety of workouts for our members."

The gym also boasts a system where the body heat of members using the equipment is used to heat the water in the showers, while the club's temperature can be controlled remotely.

Kiss Gyms, the privately-owned health club group, unveiled its first location within a former children's activity play centre in Milton Keynes last year. It has also opened in Acton.

More locations are being proposed by Kiss Gyms, with Gloucester, Coventry, Sheffield and Cardiff among a number of sites across the UK being worked on by the group.
