Generations of families have frequented the Jungle Club Sports Complex in Vero Beach over the past twenty years to work out and keep in good health! And just as its membership has grown, so has its family. “It’s hard to believe that my daughter Katie Smith, who used to go to camp at this facility, is now the general manager, “ said owner Dr. John Cairns. “My wife Marlene and I are very proud of the legacy we’ve built here and happy to be of service to the families in this community for two decades!” The Jungle Club has been a constantly evolving fitness club, starting from the converted home and pool that the Cairns purchased in November 1991, to the sprawling, 40,000 square foot, state of art indoor gym it houses today. Upstairs you’ll find almost every cardio machine available on the market today including treadmills, elliptical machines, stair climbers, arc trainers, cross trainers and stationary bikes. Most have individual TV’s and iPod docking stations to enhance your exercise session. If you want to burn up to 1000 calories per hour, join one of the regularly scheduled spinning classes with a professionally trained instructor to guide through your power biking workout. Downstairs you can train with free weights or Cybex resistance machines that ensure you are lifting weights correctly. There are over 40 resistance machines designed and balanced to target a specific muscle group and the free weight room is the largest in the area.
