Pick your country. Take on the challenge. Compete!
To celebrate the World Cup, Active North Yorkshire is bringing the energy and competition straight into our gyms with the World Cup Gym Challenge. A fun, inclusive fitness event running across all sites from Thursday 11 June to Sunday 19 July.
Whether you are a regular gym-goer or just getting started, this is your chance to get involved, push yourself and be part of something exciting.
How it works
- Pick your country
Choose a World Cup nation from the flags displayed in your gym. You can pick as many countries as you like to increase your chances of winning.
- Take on the challenge
Each country is linked to its own quick fitness challenge (taking just 5 to 10 minutes):- gym-based and functional workouts
- cardio, strength and endurance challenges
- designed to be accessible for all fitness levels
- Record your score
Once you have completed a challenge, pick up a results slip and leave it in the box on site. Scores are based on reps, time or distance. Speak to a member of the team if you need any guidance.
- Climb the leaderboard
Compete against other members across all sites to come out on top. The top performer for each country will be entered into a prize draw!
Compete as a site
It’s not just individuals competing:
- each Active North Yorkshire site will adopt three to four countries
- as the World Cup progresses, sites will advance with their countries. However, all workouts will still be available to complete throughout the challenge
- the site who boasts the winning country of the World Cup will have all participants entered into an additional prize draw
The further your country goes, the longer your home site stays in the game and you may have the chance of winning an additional prize.
Prizes
Individual prize
Each country winner will be entered into a prize draw to win three months free membership.

All sites will compete for the top spot. All participants from the winning site will be in with the chance of winning a luxury Turkish Baths wellness experience.
