Bulimba Memorial Park

Bulimba is an urban village aligning the Brisbane River in south-east Brisbane Queensland. It offers fashion & lifestyle shopping, health & beauty, dining & bars, cinemas & services and much more. Bulimba Memorial Park is located at the corner of Oxford Street and Stuart Street, Bulimba. Oxford Street is a buzzing hive of activity, especially on the weekends. With its trendy shopping options, bars, restaurants, and the cinema, it’s got a lot going on. Bulimba Memorial Park is there for you if you still want to be in amongst it, but aren’t so much into the claustrophobic experience of being where it’s at along with everyone else.

The playground is especially popular and is usually full of kids at all times of the day. The equipment is suited to children of all ages, with fake mini kitchens, unusual instruments, monkey bars, various swings and a couple of slides. As well as the playground there’s a huge grass area for kids to run around if the playground doesn’t exhaust them enough. There are lots of undercover areas with tables and chairs, as well as big thick trees to provide lots of shade, so you can sit back and enjoy the city view. The park is dog friendly (leashed only) and there’s a sports field.

Open Space Workout

We talk a lot about how to squeeze in an effective workout when you’re short on time and/or space—which often comes in handy during the busy holiday season. But what if you’re lucky enough to have access to an entire football field or public park for your training session? You’ll improve athletic performance and boost energy levels from breathing in the fresh fall air. Bulimba Memorial Park is the ideal setting for this workout. Who needs the treadmill? Grab a mat (or towel), a timer and a water bottle to start this fat melting down process. Our Bulimba Personal Trainers can come to you anywhere in the area!

15 Sumo Squats: Stand up with your feet wider than your hips and your toes slightly turned out as you sit back into a squat.

20 Bicycle Crunches: Lie on your back and bend both knees into your chest, hands clasped behind your head. Find a focal point to the left and right of your body. Look at those two focal points as you twist and crunch to each side, reaching your right elbow to your left knee, and vice versa.

20 Mountain Climbers: Start in a plank position and alternate driving your knees into chest, keeping your hips flat and parallel to the ground. Make sure you time yourself performing the full meltdown, and try to beat your best time with your next workout
