Fancy a fitness challenge without any running? DEKA STRONG is for you

One of the world’s most exciting fitness challenges is set to take place in the United Arab Emirates. DEKA STRONG Roadshow events are held throughout the year in Dubai and allow competitors to get to grips with challenges that test their strength, endurance and agility. DEKA has proved to be a big hit among fitness fanatics in the USA, Australia, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the UK and should be a sure thing in the Emirates. Held at Gravity DXB gym in Al Quoz on Sunday July 26, this roadshow event will challenge participants to perform sled pushes and pulls, weighted carries and lunges, among other exercises. Roadshow events are perfect for anyone who wants a structured strength and endurance challenge without any running. But if you’d like to test yourself further, then look out for the first DEKA FIT event, which will include 500m sprints between each obstacle. Ready to sign up? Find all the details here. Zone one features a basic lunge movement targeting lower body muscle groups, including the core, to enhance mobility, flexibility, balance and coordination. The added weight of the RAM roller provides an extra challenge to this zone. Both feet must be planted on the ground at the beginning of each rep.
