In Mumbai, where gym memberships can cost anywhere between Rs 800 to Rs 3,000, the Shivaji Park Open Gymnasium offers a refreshing alternative with its no-cost fitness facilities. Located in Dadar’s Shivaji Park, this unique gym breaks the mould by providing free access to a range of workout equipment.
Unlike conventional gyms, it features both modern machines and traditional desi workout equipment, catering to fitness enthusiasts of all ages. The gym operates from 6AM to 11PM and includes a Hanuman Temple within its premises, adding a spiritual dimension to the fitness experience.
The state and national-level athletes, who often struggle with gym expenses, use this facility. Shivaji Park is not just about the gym as it also hosts various sports activities. The park’s cricket, volleyball, shot put, and football fields, which were previously closed due to rain, are now bustling with activity as players return.
Mumbai’s initiative mirrors similar open gym setups in Delhi and other cities, providing free access to fitness facilities in public parks. These gyms offer an accessible and cost-effective way to maintain health and wellness.
