Gym equipment installed at Liverpool Airport
30.06.07
Passengers travelling via Liverpool Airport can do a workout while waiting for their flights to take off, after Liverpool City Council has installed gym equipment in the terminal.
The council wants to make it easier for people to get fit and encourage exercise as part of a daily routine. It has paid to install squat machines and shoulder presses at the airport gym, which is designed to be used for quick workouts by passengers. Both incoming and outgoing passengers can use the facility.
Councillor Colin Eldridge, executive member of leisure on the city council, said: 'In Liverpool we are constantly working on innovative ways to get people fit. We've already introduced gym equipment in our libraries and now we hope to urge many more people to get active by training in the terminal.'
'This is about encouraging everyone to build exercise into their daily routine, whether they are waiting for a plane or simply looking to get rid of the extra pounds they put on whilst on holiday.'
