Magadan Schools to Get Modern Outdoor Fitness Zones by October

Modern outdoor fitness zones will open this year at two schools in Magadan. The facilities aim to encourage students to stay active and improve their health. They will be built on vacant lots at the Eco-Biological Lyceum and School No. 28. Magadan Region Governor Sergei Nosov ordered the construction of these zones. The project falls under the state programme Development of Physical Culture and Sports. It also supports the national initiative Long and Active Life, launched by the country’s president.

The gyms will include equipment for upper-body, abdominal, and back exercises. They will also have parallel bars, an elliptical trainer, a stationary bike, a Swedish wall, pull-up bars, and a bench press station. Shock-absorbing flooring will be installed to enhance safety and comfort during workouts.

The zones are designed to integrate sports into students’ daily routines. They will help pupils prepare for GTO fitness standards. Construction is set to finish by the end of September. The new fitness zones will provide students with access to diverse workout equipment. Their completion will mark a step towards promoting physical activity in Magadan’s schools. The facilities are expected to be ready for use before October.
