The inauguration ceremony of Atmosphere Fitness, the largest fitness facility in Karachi was held on Wednesday, October 31st.
The gym is a welcome addition to the city, located off I.I Chundrigar Road that offers a convenient solution for those working in the heart of the city as it is the only gym of its size in the area. It also serves as the perfect way for them to avoid rush hour traffic.
The impressive facility is housed in the Al-Nadi Al-Burhani Sports complex, which is a community sports complex itself and covers 11,000 sq. ft of gym space with state-of-the-art fitness equipment for members.
From modern weight lifting equipment to other amenities such as a juice bar, Jacuzzi and steam room, the fitness space has a lot to offer. The gym is divided into five main sections; Cardio, Strength, studio, functional fit, and the boxing ring, each has a different look and feel to it thus making space an all-rounder for fitness enthusiasts.
Unlike any other local fitness establishment, Atmosphere Fitness has a unique fresh air system through the ducts that allow you to continue hustling hard. The Digital integration bit makes it easy for one to track workouts and scheduling them digitally so you know exactly know what and how to go about your fitness.
The event kicked off with a ribbon cutting ceremony commemorated by the Chief Minister, Murad Ali Shah who shared a few words to mark the occasion:
Atmosphere Fitness is a Dawoodi-Bohra community project and it’s here to bring a lifestyle change for the people of Karachi and I am proud to witness it. This facility is truly one of a kind and represents a positive shift in the local fitness industry, a step towards a healthier and fitter Pakistan
I haven’t seen a grander facility than this in Karachi thus by far. I believe it is important to incorporate fitness into our daily routine despite our demanding work schedules, we have to take out time and that’s what I do too. Maintaining a fitness routine keeps me energized throughout the day and with a state of the art place such as this, one is bound to have a good time.
This was followed by a grand gym tour for guests where the different sections of the gym including cardio, strength, boxing ring and studio area were shown. A short presentation by the Atmosphere Fitness team proved to be very informative for those looking to kick-start their fitness goals.
As explained by Mustafa Sadriwala of Atmosphere Fitness:
Our spiritual leader, His Holiness Dr. Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin (T.U.S), has time and again laid a special emphasis on the physical fitness and health standards for society at large. Also, in the last couple of years, the fitness industry has seen a sudden boom and everyday more and more people are interested in making themselves fitter.
This, we believe, was the perfect time for a facility such as this to come about and make the fitness scene more grand. So with much assurance, I can claim— this is the atmosphere for fitness that everybody has been waiting for.
