PRESS RELEASE

Are you ready for the Orbit4 A-Z challenge?

05 Aug 2024
The Orbit4 A-Z Challenge 2024 was launched in April / Orbot4 / Fitbox Boxing
It’s been described as THE challenge of the year but are you part of it?

Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for most of 2024 then you will have seen our team sweating, spinning, squatting their way around the top gyms in the UK.

It’s been a huge laugh – sides and shorts (!) have split, trainers perished and calories have been well and truly burnt - but what is all this about?

It’s the Orbit4 A-Z Challenge 2024! As well as getting to make some ace new friends, we are touring the country working our way through an alphabet of workouts, health & wellness concepts and everything in between across different gyms large and small!

CEO of Orbit4, Daniel Jones, said: “I’ve laughed and exercised till I’ve cried but it’s been awesome! We're doing this because we are passionate about our industry and so want to show off all of the amazing work being carried out by you – we think you are brilliant, and we want everyone to know!”

We are asking operators to nominate their workouts to feature in this challenge - contact their Business Development Manager, Kev Forester, at [email protected] to make your suggestion.

He said: “Do you offer something a bit different at your sites? Do you have something new and innovative that you want us to help showcase? Special guests are also welcome to join us along the way, so again, get in touch to submit your interest.”

We kick-started our challenge back in April with an Adrenal1ne class for 'A' at the Lifestyle Fitness boutique site V1be in Manchester.

We're now 7 stints in after some amazing sessions with guests from Box12, UK Active, Active Insight, Love Recruitment, Pulse, Indigo, Gymgear joining the fun. There are now only 18 sessions left so get in quick or you will miss out!

Julie Allen from Active Insight is still buzzing from her challenge - she said: ”This is THE challenge of the year and absolutely great fun – I loved every minute!”

Kenny Wattam from Box12 said: “That was an absolute blast with the Orbit4 team! Good luck with the rest of the challenge!”

To keep up to date with our challenge give us a follow on LinkedIn and don’t miss out on your chance to be part of the challenge of the year!
