Whether you’re looking to go a few rounds with a punching bag, pump some iron or get your “ohm” on, you can now do it all in these new fitness spaces in Fort Lauderdale.
Total Knockout
Here’s what happens when group fitness and boxing collide. It’s called Rumble and it’s now in Fort Lauderdale. What sets Rumble apart from other boxing gyms are the group fitness classes. Think 10-round, 45-minute sessions split between two styles of training: boxing skills and drills and resistance training. And then there’s the sound system and curated playlists to keep your mind in the fight. Fight your way to a better you, because Rumble is open seven days a week with classes running morning and night. And be sure to look around while you’re there. Celebs like David Beckham, Kevin Hart, Kendall Jenner and Jason Derulo are all fans of the Rumble brand. 408 NE Third St., Fort Lauderdale; 954-859-6067; rumbleboxinggym.com.
