Infrared saunas are becoming popular in the wellbeing and health circles for various reasons including their various medical advantages and they simply make you feel better! What exactly is an infrared sauna?
Infrared sauna Clayton makes use of infrared rays to directly heat your body instead of heating up the entire room as a conventional sauna does. In an infrared sauna Clayton, the air temperature is significantly lower as your body absorbs the infrared heat building up your body temperature compelling you to sweat more even though the air temperature remains low. Infrared sauna Clayton typically work between 50° – 60°C, while traditional saunas can get up to 85°C which can be uncomfortable for many folks.
People have been using saunas for a long time for a wide range of health conditions. Infrared sauna Clayton has been found to add to your general health and wellbeing by helping you relax, loosening up stiff or tight muscles, lessening joint pain and providing you some well-deserved uninterrupted alone time.
Here are some tips to make your Infrared sauna Clayton sessions better:
Drink water- Ensure you're well hydrated before going into an Infrared sauna Clayton. Drink a glass of water before your session. You can also carry water into the sauna, particularly in case you're uncomfortable in higher temperatures.
Pick the temperature - The normal temperature for an Infrared sauna Clayton ranges from 50°C – 60°C. If this is your first time, start with 50°C. You might want to remain at this temperature for a couple of sessions. You can generally build the temperature every session until you reach 80˚C.
Dress - How you dress is your choice. A few people will wear swimming outfits, while others want to go in bare.

FACILITIES - CLAYTON GYM
THE PLAYGROUND
This part of the gym is a heaven for weightlifters, powerlifters, and functional athletes. A turf track 15m in length. 5 designated weightlifting platforms, 2 carpet surfaced powerlifting platforms, 2 competition spec combo racks (not shown), 4 double cell squat rigs with monkey bars in between.
SQUAT STATION
Rogue cages, calibrated steel plates, power bars, deadlift bars, GHRs and a whole lot of chalk; hell, we even have some Eleiko bars! We're blessed with over 15 squatting stations at our Clayton gym.
LIFT ZONE
Tons of flooring had to be laid down to prepare our platforms for what your weight are about to do them! With facilities catering to both Weightlifting & Powerilfting; these areas will be loud and PR's will be broken.
MACHINE CENTRAL
All of our bench presses are Australian made and have spotter arms (not shown in the render), so you can feel safe during those quiet hours where spotters aren't easy to find. Most of our machines are Nautilus branded, with a few pieces of specialty machines such as the Pendulum squat, and the Glute drive.
DUMBBELLS N' BENCHES
4 rows of dumbbells (shown 3) from 1kg all the way up to 70kg. We've learnt that it's actually not the equipment in this section that matters the most, but the space. We've ensured to leave enough space between the dumbbell racks and the benches so someone can return their weights while you're doing your dumbbell presses.
CABLES N' THINGS
You won't be caught waiting to get some cable curls or tricep pushdowns here! On top of two big cable stations (shown 1), we've added an extra tricep station on the end of it, so you can still do your cable flies when someone just wants to use one end for tricep pushdowns.
CARDIO SECTION
Startrac treadmills, Ellipticals, all kinds of bikes, and of course, the ultimate Stairmaster stair mills. Overlooking Princes Highway, you get reminded that you are in the gym making the progress that those people driving home are missing out on. Go you!
BAGS N' GROUP ZONE
Sometimes you just need to hit something. These bags are here to keep you out of trouble. If that's not fun enough for you. Our Boxfit classes are the most popular classes we have. On top of this, the floor in this group training zone is designed to handle weight dumping. It comes in handy in our Barbell Fit and Hiit classes where you simply don't have the energy left to put the weights down softly. So you let the weights know how much you're hurting!
CLASS ROOM
We run a variety of classes in this room, from Yoga, floor Pilates, to High Intensity Interval sessions. Take a look at the 'Classes' section to find out more. Two floor to ceiling windows in this room which looks out to Ferntree Gully Road. When classes are not running, this is another open training space for anything you want. Or just pose!
BARBELLS
This is probably what Training Day is known for more than anything else. Yes we have the highly sought after Swedish made Eleiko Barbells out on the gym floor for members to use. If you're not familiar with what that is, a quick Google of their pricetags should indicate the cult. It doesn't stop there, Rogue powerlifting and weightlifting bars, Comp spec combo racks, and your favourite carpet surfaced deadlifting platforms that we have to resurface regularly... but we get it, because training is life!
CALIBRATED WEIGHTS
CALIBRATED AND BUMPER PLATES For those who are asking: why are calibrated weight plates important? Here's your answer: A regular weight plate, (like the ones most health and fitness gyms use) can vary up to 300g in weight per plate. Sure, that doesn't sound like much, instead of bench pressing 20kg I'm doing 19.7kg. But let's now imagine you are lifting 5 plates per side, training for your first competition. In total, that's 3kg off the actual weight you think you're lifting. You head off to competition thinking you've done this weight before, and on the day, it doesn't move! Now you go searching for a gym with proper weight plates! We've saved you that painful experience.

Temperature in our infrared sauna in Clayton
The temperature in our infrared sauna at Clayton is normally between 50 – 60 degrees compared to 65 – 80 degrees in a more traditional sauna. This is because an infrared sauna uses 20% of the heat to spread warmth in the air and 80% of the heat to spread warmth throughout your body, which results in more sweat at a lower heat compared to conventional saunas. The infrared sauna at Clayton uses infrared lights that utilise electromagnetic radiation to transfer heat to your body rather than the space around you.
