BUlford Camp

BATTLE READY

Location: Wiltshire, England
Training Space: Military
Website: www.army.mod.

IndigoFitness was tasked with refurbishing and upgrading the vast gym space at Bulford Camp to meet the unique training requirements of both 5 Rifles and the 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment. This gym needed to support rigorous conditioning and readiness for deployments across diverse terrains and high-stakes operations.

The Situation

IndigoFitness approached this large-scale project with the aim to create a durable, functional, and versatile training space to meet the extreme demands of the British Army’s finest.

The facility’s existing floor was damaged which compromised stability and created safety risks. Additionally, the gym’s layout and equipment had not been designed to support the high volume and varied types of training required by 5 Rifles and the Mercians, both of whom needed ample, adaptable space to prepare for the extreme physical demands of combat and deployment.

This situation set the stage for IndigoFitness to redesign and upgrade the space.

THE SOLUTION

IndigoFitness provided a comprehensive solution that transformed the old gymnasium hall into a training space.

Flooring

First, the existing flooring was removed, revealing the underlying damaged floor, which was then repaired to provide a stable base. To enhance structural integrity, two layers of plywood were added, reinforcing the foundation. Finally, a new, robust flooring solution was installed, specifically designed to withstand the demands of heavy-duty strength training, ensuring that the gym could support intense workouts and rigorous conditioning sessions.

Custom Rigs for Maximum Training Capacity:

IndigoFitness designed and installed two massive rigs, that mirror each other on opposite sides of the gym. Creating an impressive 14 lifting bays using 2x 7 bay Shadow Series Custom Rigs. The scale of these rigs not only allows for extensive training capacity but also enhances the gym’s visual impact, making it a standout feature in the space. This setup offers optimal open gym space in the centre of the gym and enables simultaneous training and efficient workflow across the facility.

Gym Design:

The gym was designed to be adaptable, meeting the varied and intense training needs of both the 5 Rifles and the Mercian Regiment.
Equipment and space layouts were configured to facilitate coaching and varied training for both forces.
