Jules Ferry Fitness Area

Rennes, Ile-et-Vilaine

6 stations

Level: Beginner

Free access fitness area located on Avenue Doyen Roger Houin, in Rennes, in the Thabor Saint-Hélier neighborhood. The module features six exercise stations on a small platform: treadmill, elliptical bike, stationary bike, pull-up bar, horizontal ladder, and lumbar bench. The facility is accessible to wheelchair users. The space remains open to everyone, with no hours or registration required, just a few steps away from the Jules Ferry basketball court.

Stations along the trail

Warm-up : Start with five to ten minutes of brisk walking. Loosen your shoulders, hips and ankles with small gentle movements to get your body ready for the effort.

  1. Pull-up bar Restez simplement suspendu quelques secondes pour habituer les bras. Prenez appui au sol avec les pieds pour alléger la traction.
  2. Monkey bars Franchissez un ou deux barreaux puis reposez les pieds. Travaillez d'abord la suspension, bras tendus.
  3. Elliptical trainer Pédalez à allure lente et régulière. Faites une séance courte pour commencer.
  4. Air walker Faites de petites enjambées à rythme lent. Tenez fermement les poignées.

Cool-down : Finish with a few minutes of slow walking. Gently stretch your legs, back and arms, holding each position for a few seconds without forcing.
