TWO Southampton gyms will be opening their doors as part of National Fitness Day.

PureGyms in Bitterne Road and Mountbatten Retail Park are set to do their bit to get the nation fighting fit on September 26.

The gyms will offer free day passes for people, with equipment and classes available all day.

National project manager at PureGym, Richard Annetts, said: “National Fitness Day is a great initiative that PureGym are proud to be a part of. We are becoming more sedentary as a nation so anything that we can do to encourage people to get active and educate them on the benefits is worthwhile.”
