ExerBlast: This Family Adventure Gym Makes Fitness Fun for NYC Kids
Submitted by Anna Fader on
Sadly, ExerBlast closed in June 2013. Lots of kids in NYC need to get more exercise, but let's face it, so do we as parents. A new gym in Tribeca has created a completely different way for families to exercise together, making it a fun group activity. ExerBlast is so unique it's kind of hard to even explain. See our photo gallery and review—and then check it out for yourself.
ExerBlast uses high-tech gaming technology to create a real-world obstacle course for a heart-pounding adventure. Groups work together, moving through stations with different activities and challenges, and each person has an iPod that tracks energy expended and awards points. This is one game where kids actually have an advantage over adults!
