Warrington’s big collection of home gym equipment for sale

WARRINGTON has the eighth largest collection of disused home gym equipment for sale in the UK, a new study reveals.

The research from Versaclimber, reveals the UK towns and cities with the largest surplus of home gym equipment for sale online as residents return to the gym post-lockdown

Results of the research indicate potential opportunities for aspiring gym owners, as well as revealing consumer spending patterns during the pandemic.
Warrington comes eighth in the list – behind nearby Manchester and Bolton

There were 487 items listed for sale in Warrington, from a population of 172,068
Top of the list was Slough, with 2,193 listings from a population of 164,046.
The rankings are based on the number of gym equipment listings per town or city on e-commerce site, Ebay, the population of the whole city, and the population-to-listing ratio – results of which might showcase how fitness-focused each UK city is.

Ryan Kelford, operations manager at Versaclimber UK, commented on the research:
“I was surprised to see the list of top ten cities with surplus home gym equipment for sale, it’s quite shocking to think that so much expensive equipment is now gathering dust instead of being put to good use. However, it’s good to see that this presents a potential opportunity for aspiring gym owners to get started with a more affordable investment.
“Our research has identified the top 50 UK cities with the highest population-to-listing ratio, meaning those cities offer the most gym equipment per capita. We believe that this information will be useful for anyone looking to find gym equipment, whether they’re a seasoned athlete, beginning their fitness journey or looking to kick-start it again.
