Colchester’s military community welcomed a new addition to its fitness infrastructure in 2022, with the introduction of the Pegasus Gym at Merville Barracks.
The gym, part of BeaverFit’s Field Army project, was designed to accommodate 150 soldiers simultaneously, and offers state-of-the-art equipment tailored for comprehensive strength, power, and cardiovascular training. Pegasus Gym, housed in a repurposed warehouse, complements the existing fitness facilities available to soldiers stationed there.
Equipped with weightlifting apparatus, functional training rigs for various exercises, and sled training tracks; the gym provides an ideal environment for rigorous physical conditioning.
Notably, it facilitates Soldier Conditioning Reviews, enabling precise assessments of individual soldiers’ fitness levels across key metrics like strength, power, and cardiovascular health.
