The muscles burn, every further movement is slow and slightly jerky, but the feeling is brilliant: full of pride in the workout you've completed, flooded with happiness, so good it's hard to describe. Sport is self-care. But this glorious moment is only a partial step towards an active and healthy lifestyle - a workout only becomes really good and effective when the body also gets time to regenerate.
Because movement is not the only part of a well-balanced training plan: Breaks are just as important as the workout itself. A visit to the dry sauna in the Elbgym after a strenuous training session or a visit to the inviting sauna area in the relaxing Kaifu bath help the muscles to regenerate.
Some people even say that this is the most beautiful moment of sport: collecting oneself, finding oneself in peace, switching off. With Urban Sports Club's diverse range of activities, you can find exactly the kind of sport that makes you happy and opportunities to give your body and mind a rest.

Finding this balance of tension and relaxation is a significant part of what Urban Sports Club offers. At Elbgym, which can be found in Eppendorf, Winterhude and three other locations in Hamburg, you are not only tempted by a stylish ambience and state-of-the-art equipment but also various courses - from yoga to weight training.
Because for the perfect balance, you shouldn't just focus on one type of sport. Holistic training means that in addition to strength and endurance, you also train flexibility - and learn to really switch off your mind. Thanks to the particular focus and the combination of breathing and movement, nordlichtYoga helps you to get through the day in a relaxed way.
Sometimes it can also help to take on an entirely new perspective. Aerial Pilates activates the Power House and thus the body's tension. Giving up your body weight completely to the colourful clothes requires a lot of concentration and a good portion of self-confidence - which grows with sport and relaxation.
But the most wonderful feeling, apart from the rush of happiness after a sweaty workout, is a soothing massage, for example, at Ploy Massage. The targeted grips loosen the tense muscles, while the time out also resets the mind. In this way, you can do yourself some good, leave strenuous days behind and start the week with new energy. Selfcare at its best!
