In the January/February issue we featured fitness centers throughout Holly Springs. In an oversight, we failed to mention the W.E. Hunt Recreation Center. The Hunt Center is located at 301 Stinson Avenue, right next to Womble Park.
The Fitness Center inside the W.E. Hunt Recreation Center is open to everyone. Daily guest passes, monthly and yearly memberships are available. An indoor elevated track, 1/12 of a mile, is free to use without a pass or membership. Note that children must be accompanied by a parent.
Classes
The Center also offers exciting group exercise classes. Fitness professionals lead members through fun and motivating workouts including Cycling, Zumba, Cardio Dance, Boot Camp, and more. Class participation is free for all Hunt Center fitness members. The Center offers 22 classes per week. A list of the classes is posted on their website, and no preregistration is necessary to attend. All members should plan to check in at the Hunt Center front desk and present their current Hunt Fitness Center membership. Participants may check in as early as 45 minutes prior to start of class. Class space may be limited.
What You’ll Find Inside
The equipment at the Center is not what many expect to find at a community center. Much of the equipment features touch screens and docking stations, and include:
Woodway treadmills
Star Trac recumbent bikes and upright bikes
Tru elliptical cross trainers
Gauntlet Stair Master
Rowers
Shape and strengthen with LifeFitness Signature resistance machines that target upper and lower body and abdominal muscles. Equipment includes:
Free weights and a Hammer Strength Power Rack
Smith Machine and Cable Crossover
Resistance bands, thera-bands, and Bosu trainer for core training
Memberships and Passes
Fitness memberships are for adults and teens ages 13 and older. Teens ages 13-15 must be accompanied by a parent member during all visits. No children under age 13 are permitted in the Fitness Center. Military discounts require an active military ID or DD214 forms. Military dependents are not included.
