The physical limit on a club’s growth
When a club or training box is doing well, the bottleneck is no longer demand but the space available. Fitting more classes into the same timetable is not viable if the room is already full, and extending the existing facility usually means building work, permits and a partial halt to activity while it is carried out.
Expanding without touching the existing structure
A shipping container gym lets you add training space outside the main building or room, with no need for works on the existing structure. It is installed in the car park, in an outdoor area of the site or on adjoining land, and adds capacity without disrupting what already works.
Use cases within a club
Extending peak hours
When the main room is saturated at the busiest times, an additional space lets you absorb that demand without sacrificing service quality or reducing class capacity.
Separating disciplines
Some clubs use the additional module to separate types of training — functional, strength, instructor-led classes — without mixing everything in the same room.
Expanding to a second location without replicating the whole infrastructure
For clubs with several centres, installing a module at a new location makes it possible to open a presence there without building a complete facility from scratch at each site.
A real case: Vals Sport, in Málaga
Vals Sport did not stop at a single Supercubo Pro: it has bought and installed three, at its centres in Churriana, Cártama and Limoneros. Repeating the purchase three times with the same supplier is, in an operation of this size, the strongest social proof there is: it shows that the first Supercubo Pro delivered what it promised.
VeniceFIT, in Seville, is another example of a club that has installed its Supercubo Pro to expand its functional training offer without having to build an additional hall.
Both cases show how a club can scale its functional training offer without the expansion requiring a full building project.
What to consider if you manage a club
- Where is the real bottleneck: timetable, space or type of training?
- Do we have outdoor space on our own site — a car park, a landscaped area — that isn’t used today?
- Are we looking to expand an existing centre or replicate the model at a new location?
Frequently asked questions
Can the module coexist with our current facilities?
Yes, it is installed as an additional space, with no need to alter the club’s existing structure.
Is it suitable for CrossFit or only for general functional training?
It is equipped for the type of training you will offer, including formats such as CrossFit or functional training.
How long does it take to have the module up and running once we decide to expand?
The process is designed to be completed in weeks, well below the usual timescale for an extension project.
Is it viable for a club with a single centre, or only for networks with several sites?
It is viable for any size of club that needs to add space without building; the case of Vals Sport, with three installations, is a real example, not a requirement.
What about maintaining an additional module compared with the rest of the facility?
The module is designed for continuous use with limited maintenance needs, which can be managed together with the rest of the club’s facility.
