VAJRA
The lifting floor after hours, racks and a loaded bar left standing

The studio

VAJRA is one long room on the second floor of a converted warehouse off Dhobighat Road, with a platform end, a conditioning end and a glassed studio in between.

It was built for lifting first. The floor is sprung under the platforms, the ceiling clears four metres so a bar overhead is never a problem, and the extraction runs hard enough that the room at 18:30 smells like a gym rather than like a crowd.

Four rowers, four air bikes, two ski ergs, a 20 m turf lane and the sleds.
