HiiT at Ohmplatz: Intensive full-body training in the open air
On July 14, 2026, HiiT - High intensity interval Training will get the Ohmplatz in Erlangen moving. The format focuses on short, intense exertion phases and active recovery intervals - an effective mix for anyone looking to specifically boost strength, endurance, and fitness. HIIT is considered a time-saving training method with high stimuli for circulation and athletic performance.

Training with strategy instead of randomness
If you only think about speed in interval training, you're missing the point. The interplay between exertion and recovery is what constantly challenges the body. This is exactly where the strength of HIIT lies: The exercises remain compact, the intensity high, the effect noticeable. The course is as interesting for beginners as it is for advanced participants with a solid basic fitness.

Stadium atmosphere in the middle of Erlangen
The Ohmplatz is not a traditional indoor training space, but a public square in the city center of Erlangen. This ensures open air, visibility, and an urban training feeling. The location has been named after the Erlangen physicist Georg Simon Ohm since 1945; the central pathways and the city center location shape the surroundings.

What participants can expect
The official course description recommends weather-appropriate sports clothing, a training or yoga mat, and enough drinks. This perfectly matches the character of this session: focused, sweat-inducing, without frills. Those who stick with it will quickly feel how intervals become rhythm and exertion becomes a real training stimulus.

Access, parking, and accessibility
For arriving in Erlangen, the city points to various parking options in the city center, as well as the large parking lot at the train station as an important hub; additionally, the City Line 299 operates free of charge through the city center. For the Ohmplatz itself, publicly available, reliable information about event logistics is limited, so early arrival by public transport or on foot is recommended.
