Most Scape properties have a well stocked gym in the best location possible: right in the building itself or at a nearby Scape property.

Staying fit while managing a busy student life can be a real challenge. Between classes, assignments, part-time jobs, and social commitments, finding time to commute to a gym often feels impossible. That’s where Scape Gyms come in – offering the perfect on-site fitness solution exclusively for Scape residents. With state-of-the-art equipment, 24/7 accessibility, and the unbeatable convenience of being right inside your building (or a nearby Scape property), staying fit has never been easier.

If you’re a student looking for the most cost-effective, accessible, and motivating way to work out, here’s why Scape Gyms are the best choice for your fitness journey.


1. Ultimate Convenience: No More Gym Commutes!

One of the biggest hurdles to maintaining a regular workout routine is the time and effort it takes to get to the gym. For most people, by the time you factor in the commute, changing into gym gear, working out, and showering, an hour-long session can turn into a two-hour commitment.

But with Scape Gyms, the workout space is literally at your doorstep. Whether you live in Scape Darling Square, Darling House, or another Scape property with an in-house gym, you can easily incorporate fitness into your daily routine.

Plus, walking past the gym every day and seeing your friends work out can be a great motivator to get moving!


2. Save Money – No Need for Expensive Gym Memberships

Did you know that Australians waste over $1.9 billion per year on unused gym memberships? That’s money going straight down the drain.

Gym memberships can be shockingly expensive, especially for students who already have to budget for rent, groceries, tuition, and social life expenses. Even the most affordable commercial gyms can cost $40–$100 per month, and premium ones can go well beyond that.

At Scape, our gyms are free for residents – meaning you don’t have to fork out extra cash for a separate gym membership. The cost is already included in your rent, making it one of the best value fitness solutions for students in Australia.


3. 24/7 Access for Busy Students

Many students have unpredictable schedules. Whether you’re an early riser who loves to hit the gym before classes or a night owl who prefers a late-night workout, Scape Gyms accommodate your lifestyle.

The gym at Darling Square and Darling House is open 24/7, so you can work out whenever it suits you – no restrictions, no crowded peak hours, and no pressure to squeeze in a session before the gym closes.


4. State-of-the-Art Equipment for Every Workout Style

Every fitness journey is unique, which is why Scape Gyms are stocked with a diverse range of equipment to help you reach your goals. Whether you’re into strength training, cardio, or functional fitness, there’s something for you.

Here’s what you’ll find in Scape Gyms:

Weight Machines – Perfect for controlled strength training and muscle-building.
Free Weights – Dumbbells, barbells, and kettlebells to help you push your limits.
Calisthenics Frames – Ideal for bodyweight exercises like pull-ups and dips.
Treadmills – Great for running or walking, no matter the weather outside.
Exercise Bikes – Low-impact, high-intensity cardio workouts made easy.
Rowing Machines – A fantastic full-body workout to build endurance and strength.

If you’re new to fitness, Scape Gyms provide easy-to-use machines that help you train safely and effectively. And if you’re already a gym enthusiast, you’ll love the variety of equipment available.


5. A Social and Motivating Environment

One of the best things about working out at a Scape Gym is the built-in support network. Unlike commercial gyms, where you may feel intimidated or disconnected, Scape Gyms create a friendly and supportive atmosphere where you can work out alongside fellow students.

You might even find a workout buddy among your roommates or neighbours, making it easier to stay accountable. Seeing familiar faces at the gym can boost your motivation, and if you ever need a spotter or training partner, there’s always someone nearby.


6. Want More Equipment? Just Ask!

Scape is committed to providing residents with the best possible living experience, and that includes ensuring the gym meets your needs.

If there’s a piece of equipment you’d love to see added to your Scape Gym, all you have to do is talk to our friendly staff. We value resident feedback and strive to make improvements based on your requests.


7. The Physical & Mental Benefits of Regular Exercise

Regular exercise isn’t just about getting in shape – it has a massive impact on your mental health and overall well-being.

Here’s why staying active is essential for students:

🔹 Reduces stress and anxiety – Exercise helps release endorphins, improving your mood and reducing stress.
🔹 Boosts brain function – Physical activity enhances memory, focus, and cognitive performance – perfect for students juggling heavy coursework.
🔹 Improves sleep quality – Working out can help you sleep better, leaving you refreshed and energised for your studies.
🔹 Enhances overall health – Regular exercise strengthens your immune system, reducing the likelihood of getting sick.

At Scape Gyms, maintaining an active lifestyle is easy, accessible, and stress-free.


8. Take a Tour & See It for Yourself!

If you’re considering moving into a Scape property, we highly recommend checking out the gym as part of your tour. See for yourself what equipment is available and how it fits into your fitness goals.

And if you’re already living in a Scape building with a gym, why not drop by today and give it a go? Even if you start small – a quick 20-minute session a few times a week – it’s a step in the right direction for your health.
