Everything Beginners Need to Know About Gym

Gym (short for "Gymnasium") is a form of physical exercise aimed at improving health, enhancing physique, and increasing overall strength. Beyond just lifting weights or losing weight, gym training also helps refresh the mind and improve overall quality of life.

At Rock IT, statistics show that the number of people joining gyms in Vietnam has been growing by an average of 20% per year. This reflects the increasing demand for health and body improvement, especially in today's fast-paced life filled with stress and sedentary habits.

At Rock It, we always emphasize to our members that gym training not only transforms your appearance but also helps you live a healthier and more positive life every day.

Key benefits include:

• Stress reduction and better sleep: Exercise stimulates endorphin release – the “happiness hormone”.
