“I’m on holiday”: what a perfect excuse to consume endless fruity cocktails and stuff ourselves full of ice cream whilst basking in the sun on some far away tropical island, ogling foreign boys in incredibly tight swimwear (come on girls, we all do it). With the overriding amount of endorphins released during the summer months, we appear to be unbothered by the sudden inability to squeeze into our favourite pair of shorts and those ridiculously tight disco pants. However, as the tan begins to fade and the post-holiday blues begin, we find ourselves desperately seeking salvation at the gym in an attempt to fight that holiday flab. If treadmills and cross trainers aren’t your thing, don’t worry girls! York Sports Village offers plenty of fun and sociable classes that guarantee results and leave you feeling summer sexy in no time!
