New outdoor gym facilities have been unveiled in Watford as part of a drive to help people keep fit.
The equipment at King George V Playing Fields can be used for free and adds to the fitness trail created there in 2013.
The varied apparatus enables people to train using their own bodyweight with exercises such as pull-ups, push-ups and triceps dips.
It is designed for both individual and group workouts and offers something for everyone from young children to professional trainers.
Watford’s mayor, Peter Taylor, said: “Outdoor gyms offer excellent, free fitness opportunities for residents. I’m really pleased we’re investing in this new facility open in King George V Playing Fields.
“With over 15 outdoor gyms in Watford, we want to continue to ensure everyone has the chance to lead healthy and happy lives across all of the town."
