Move Map: Quick Guide

Each icon represents a different type of site to get you moving.

Outdoor Gym

Trim Trail

Workout Challenge

We define an outdoor gym as a public space where a variety of outdoor fitness equipment is installed in one area. Although public, some spaces might have limited opening hours, so always check before you visit.

We define a trim trail as linked outdoor fitness equipment which is spread out further than 100m apart. Most trim trails are spread out much further (the longest on our map is 5km). If there is a defined route, you can view it by clicking on the icon and the total distance is shown in the pop-up window.

A workout challenge can be absoutely anything that doesn’t fit into other categories. We scout out fun places and create workout ideas to inspire and motivate you to get moving.

Move the Masses – with the help of volunteers – locates outdoor gyms and trim trails which you can find on our Move Map. We also scout out great places to exercise and get moving for free outside and set workout challenges for you to try!

We want people how to be active outdoors and make use of free resouces to keep fit. We produce short videos to demonstrate a range of exercises for all abilities using the equipment at outdoor gyms.

We also promote other free activities to get you moving and design short, fun workout challenges using local features.

Our sessions and events provide people with quality instruction and guidance, giving them the confidence to use installed outdoor fitness equipment safely and effectively. 

Case Study

Navigation Road Fitness Area, Guildhall Ward, York

We were asked to provide a series of sessions for local residents. The Resident’s Association had been campaigning for 13 years to have an outdoor gym installed but needed guidance on how to use the equipment and instruction on different exercises.

We ran a series of sessions to engage the local residents, giving them the confidence to continue exercising and motivating each other as a group. We produced three videos with a range of exercises for them to use as an ongoing resource.
