Net-Workout: Altrincham’s businesses swap netwalking for a workout
Networking usually means coffee, a lanyard and a lot of small talk. Today it meant heart rate monitors.
Visit Altrincham runs a regular Netwalking session for local businesses, a chance to get out, walk and chat. This month they swapped the walk for a workout and brought it to us at 4C George Street. We’re calling it the Net-Workout, and we’d quite like to do it again.
First, the networking
We started with 30 minutes of proper catching up. It was lovely to meet so many of the people who make Altrincham tick, and to show everyone round the studio. Peter and I got to chat to everyone about why we opened Altytude, how our classes work and what makes the place different.
Then, the workout
Next, everyone got moving. One of our coaches led a 20-minute taster workout using the treads, the rowers and the weights. Everyone worked to their own heart rate zones, so whether you train every day or hadn’t been near a gym in years, you were doing the same workout at your own level.
There was a lot of laughing, a fair bit of puffing and, as far as we could tell, no regrets. It turns out that’s a very good way to get to know people.
Thank you
A huge thank you to Visit Altrincham for organising and for bringing local businesses together, and to everyone who came along. That included Lund Bennett Law, Bridgfords, Helen Carouzos Psychology, McHale & Co and our neighbours at the Stamford Quarter.
Altrincham has a brilliant business community, and we’re really proud to be part of it.
