The loft - our new hyrox & functional fitness suite

The Loft isn’t just an extension; it’s a complete evolution of how we train at Acorns. We’ve listened to our community and built a high-spec zone that bridges the gap between traditional gym work and elite performance.

The Signature Turf Track: A professional-grade lane dedicated to sled pushes and pulls—the ultimate test of functional power.

Hyrox-Ready Environment: Fully equipped with the "Big Three" of functional cardio: Concept2 Rowers, SkiErgs, and BikeErgs.

Performance Rig & Strength: Custom-built rig for pull-ups, squats, and suspension training, complemented by a full suite of kettlebells, wall balls, and sandbags.

Inclusive Intensity: While built for the competitive athlete, The Loft’s low-impact movements make it an incredible space for seniors looking for "joint-friendly" strength and teenagers building a solid fitness foundation.

Hyrox

With the fastest-growing fitness sport in the world taking over, Acorns is proud to be the home of functional training in Medway. Whether you have a race on the calendar or you just want to feel like an athlete, The Loft is your training ground.

Functional fitness

Functional training is about building a body that’s fit for purpose, not just for show. In The Loft, we’ve moved beyond fixed machines to focus on natural, multi-directional movements that translate to real-world strength. By utilising our turf track for low-impact sled work and our custom rig for stabiliser focused training, you’ll develop the balance, power, and mobility needed for everyday life. It’s the ultimate way to bulletproof your body, whether you’re lifting groceries, playing with the grandkids, or staying sharp for the job.

Discover the new space

Photos only tell half the story. To truly appreciate the scale of The Loft and the welcoming atmosphere of our community, you need to see it for yourself. Whether you want to test out the new turf track or simply have a coffee and a chat about your fitness goals, our doors are open. Come and see why we are Medway’s premier destination for health and performance—no pressure, just a guided look at your new training home.

Testimonials

I started training at Acorns because my wife said I had to! I stayed because I found a really friendly and helpful bunch of Instructors, who try to find ways of motivating and challenging you. The clientele are also friendly and not at all intimidating. There is a wide variety of equipment to use and the membership is better value than at other gyms. It’s easy to get to and parking isn’t a problem. It’s also a nice, clean environment in which to work out.
Also, I’m afraid to leave in case Kirsty beats me up on the school run 🙂

I have been a member of Acorns gym for 6 years now, and it is down to the friendly atmosphere and the help of the gym Instructors that have kept me going.  You can get regular programme updated and PT is available if  you need that bit extra.  It’s nice to relax in the sauna and steam room after a hard work out.  Also available to help with any injuries is the Sports Injury Clinic which is a god send for me.  They also offer nutrition help as well so if your serious about getting fit and healthy join Acorns Gym…

Why we choose Acorns gym at Lordswood Leisure Centre…

As a busy family it’s often hard to find the time to do those things you really want. To spend time together, keep fit, stay healthy, gain some muscle, stay trim, gain some “me” time, switch off from the mobile. On top of all this to have the help, advice and guidance of some quality and passionate staff who are able, willing and ready to personalise a plan to suit whatever your goal may be or your time will allow.

For our family, Acorns was the single best option that was capable of meeting all of these needs all of the time. More than three years on and it’s still meeting these needs and is an important part of our family life, weather we work out together or individually. A habit we’re glad to have.
