THE BODY RIDE is a luxurious high-end personal training gym located near Midtown in Roppongi. The gym consults with guests who struggle to maintain a regular training regime and strongly believes that workouts should be a sustainable habit rather than a short-term diet. Unlike other normal personal training gyms, which focus mainly on dietary restrictions, THE BODY RIDE approaches body conditioning in a different way to make it sustainable. Trainers spend time understanding what each guest would like to achieve with THE BODY RIDE and come up with a tailor-made goal and plan for success. The in-house fitness machines include a wide variety of the latest flagship models by TECHNO GYM. This offers many different training experiences so guests can continue to enjoy their workouts without getting bored. Guests can relax in their own private shower room before and after a training session. Lastly and most importantly, trainers consistently support each guest to achieve goals together. Now with a new English-speaking trainer, THE BODY RIDE is pleased to offer services to English-speaking guests.
