Frost Fitness

Warkworth’s most established fitness centre, Warkworth Gym in Glenmore Drive, is changing its name to Frost Fitness.

This follows the sale of the business to Danny and Fiona Frost, who previously ran Frost Fitness in Morrison Drive, which has closed.

“The two businesses were a good fit because they were both focused on being friendly and community focused,” Danny says.

After the difficult covid years, he is excited to be launching the new gym in a much more positive environment.

“We have some exciting plans for the gym but will take it one step at a time. Most of the Warkworth

Gym staff have been retained, so this will help transition members to the gym’s new look and feel, including a new colour scheme and logo.”

Danny says the Glenmore Drive site is twice the size of his former premises, which allows for more flexibility in the types of sessions and facilities the 24-hour gym can offer.

He plans to develop a more holistic approach to wellness by offering a range of services that address not only physical fitness through the 25 existing classes, but mental health and nutrition as well. He also hopes to develop stronger links with schools and sports clubs.

Danny’s aim is to be based at the gym fulltime. Currently he is the business development manager for Aspect Blinds and Shutters, and Fiona is a teacher at Snells Beach School.

The gym will soon offer Fit3D scans, which can give a quick and reliable report on a person’s body measurements including posture, lean mass (muscle), fat mass and balance.

“The scans give a much more accurate picture of where a person is on their wellness journey. The information they provide is amazing.”
