POSTED 20 Feb 2013 . BY Tom Walker
Fitness First Middle East has opened its third club in Saudi Arabia - the chain's 32nd club in the Middle East.

Exclusively for men, the new facility has a 1,675sq m (18,000sq ft) footprint, including group exercise studios, stretch zones and dedicated free weight and cardio areas.

In addition to offering the full range of Les Mills programming, the club offers a range of freestyle classes including TRX, ViPR, kettlebells and Power Plate sessions. Personal training is also available.

There's also an exclusive members' lounge offering complimentary drinks and wifi access, while the changing rooms also include a sauna.

George Flooks, chief operating officer for Fitness First Middle East, says: "Our strategic expansion in key locations that lack fitness facilities reflects our commitment to offering convenient and world-class options to communities in the Middle East."

Fitness First Middle East is a franchise owned and operated under license by the Landmark Group in the MENA region.
