| About Health Point : |  |
Basavanagudi is one of the oldest localities of Bangalore, and is home to a large number of students, athletes, and sportspersons. In fact, five Indian international cricketers are residents of this locality. Thus, it would be natural to assume that the place has plenty of facilities for physical activities, like fields, swimming pools, and gyms. There is no shortage of the first two, but until April 1999, there was not a single gym in the locality, or even nearby places! This is an amazing fact when one considers that gyms are now considered an integral part of every athlete and sportsperson's regimen.
On the 25th of April 1999, Basavanagudi got its first modern, fully equipped multi-gym, when Prakash and Santosh, two young men with a dream in their hearts and a vision in their eyes, founded 'The Health Point'. Under the guidance of their coach and well wisher C. V. Subramanya, they opened a New World of health and fitness opportunities to the residents of the surrounding areas.
The gym is spread over 2400 sq. feet, and has ample space for all the activities conducted by the Centre, which include weight training, aerobics, and yoga. The instructors are well qualified and provide customized solutions to their clients' needs, be it weight reduction or gain, or special coaching for models. Lot of successful weight lifters and body builders also train here, and those aspiring to emulate them receive plenty of moral support, not to mention technical assistance. The instructors also provide advice on dietary requirements and weight loss and enhancement, apart from charting out individual exercise schedules based on the client's body type and current fitness levels. In addition, women have the facility of special batches, apart from the regular combined batches. The Centre is affiliated to the Karnataka Youth Services and Sports Association.
The Health point Gym main aim is to providing international quality body
building. Owners say with their golden sentence "Have
A Healthy Life Style".It is the place for
the "100%" workout. No frills, just the best atmosphere with the
best equipment to build your body. Bodybuilders outside on Muscle Beach
