Get in Shape with Functional Fitness: 8 Functional Gyms in Bangkok, located near the BTS

Everyone faces the daily battles with heavy objects, such as toting luggage into the overhead bin or hefting shopping bags in the back of the car. For these everyday situations, we don't need huge bodybuilder muscles, but practical, all-around strength.

Functional fitness refers to exercises built around these common movements you utilize every day. The focus is on speed, agility, the range of motion, core stability, and flexibility, aiming to improve your performance in everyday life's activities and prevent pain or discomfort.

Instead of a machine park, functional gyms focus on personal training or group classes. Exercises combine functional movements performed at relatively high intensity, designed to give you an effective workout in commonly 60-minutes time.

In this article, we list 8 of Bangkok's top functional gyms which are conveniently located next to or within walking distance of the BTS.

All gyms mentioned in this article participate in the GuavaPass program. A GuavaPass membership allows you to join classes at gyms throughout the city without actually committing yourself to one particular gym.
