A HEREFORD gym is to have a substantial refurbishment next month. 

There will be over 60 pieces of new equipment on the way at thePoint4, with the work being carried out on November 8 and 9. 

The gym, off Venns Lane, will be the first in the city to install a Jacobs Ladder, offering a full body workout and a huge calorie burn of up to 650kcals in 30 minutes.

The refurbishment is designed to make sure gym goers can keep their workouts dynamic and fresh with other new equipment including the Concept2 Ski Erg, upgraded cardio machines, new resistance options and a brand new Functional Training Rig.
