Gym on Casares Beach near Casares del Sol apartment

Casares esplanade, gym and beach.


In Costa del Sol Spain, they are very keen on every community having access to a street gym. And now Casares beach has one installed on the esplanade in cool blue and green as seen in the photo, another thing to do near Casares del Sol apartment. This street gym is 6 seperate pieces of equipment designed to be used everyday when you take a walk from the Casares del Sol apartment. Just work through the 6 pieces of equipment daily for results. From a waist whittler to an very good arm press that involves you lifting your own body weight to a thigh worker and so on.
This gym is just one of many along the Costa del Sol, there being another less than 500m away on Sabinillas esplanade, in red and yellow. And another in Estapona again in red and yellow. And if you travel inland, most of the hillside villages have their own street gyms. And they are part of the Spanish strategy to fight obesity and lack of fitness in the population. And as a facility that is accessible to everyone, rich and poor, they are a great idea. But I've never really seen many people 'doing' their exercises on them.
