If you’re ready to shake up your routine, Nedlands offers several outdoor fitness areas ideal for strength, endurance, and cardio. Whether you’re an experienced athlete or simply looking to level up your fitness, these free community spaces make it easy to stay active.
College Park Outdoor Fitness Area
College Park offers a great range of bodyweight training options including pull-up bars, step-up platforms, and space for HIIT sessions. It’s a smart place to combine strength training with cardiovascular bursts, all under the open sky.
Beaton Park Circuit
Beaton Park is ideal for circuit-style workouts. Alternate sprints or jogs with bodyweight exercises like dips, squats, or planks using the park’s outdoor gym stations. It’s a great way to structure a workout without needing equipment or a gym.
Bonus Challenge: Jacob’s Ladder
Just outside Nedlands in Kings Park, Jacob’s Ladder features over 240 stairs. It’s a challenging cardiovascular workout for those looking to build stamina and lower-body strength. This intense option is best suited for people with a moderate to high fitness level.
Chiropractic Care for Better Functional Movement
When you’re active—whether you train regularly, enjoy weekend workouts, or simply like to keep your body moving—how your spine functions can influence the way you move, feel, and perform.
A review published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics explored how spinal adjustments may support aspects of physical performance. The study found there were some improvements in areas like grip strength and coordination, suggesting chiropractic care may help support better movement and recovery for active individuals.
Everyone’s body responds differently, but this research highlights how chiropractic care may help you move more freely, stay balanced, and feel more in control of your body —especially when staying active if part of your lifestyle.
