The street that most routes to AD HUB end on
Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Street leads into AD HUB Sports Complex in Al Manhal, and many of the mapped routes to RPM on this site finish along it, from whichever part of the city they start. This page is for anyone who drives it: people who use the street every day, and people arriving at RPM for the first time.
RPM is one club, on Level 4 of AD HUB, and the mapped estimates put the street right by it. The useful questions here are less about the drive and more about what happens once you arrive. If you have not settled on a gym yet, begin with the page that sets out RPM's location and the questions to ask first.
From the street to the training floor, step by step
- Before you set off, open the map pin on the contact page, so your navigation app takes you to AD HUB itself rather than to a point somewhere on the street.
- At AD HUB, park in the free on-site car park and take the lift to Level 4.
- On a first visit or a booked tour, tell the team you have arrived.
- Leave your things in one of the keypad lockers in the changing area. Keypads mean you need no padlock of your own.
- If you are heading for the Ladies section, ask the team how to find it when you arrive.
- Then the training floor, a class or your coach, depending on what you booked.
Give the first visit some spare time. After a few weeks the same steps happen without thought, and the slack you planned for the first day goes back into training.
First visit and routine visit compared
| Step | On your first visit | Once it is routine |
|---|---|---|
| Getting there | Follow the map pin and allow extra time | The last stretch along Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Street is second nature |
| Arriving | Ask the team where everything is | Straight to the changing area |
| What you bring | Kit and water, plus what you need to get ready afterwards | A bag that lives in the car |
| The session | A tour, or a coached session to learn the floor | Your planned programme |
| Afterwards | Try the grooming hub, and ask whether showers and towels are available | Your own routine, with the recovery suite if your tier covers it |
Before a first try of the sauna, steam room or ice bath, speak to your doctor if you are pregnant or living with a heart condition.
Delma Street searches, and what the route box measures
I searched for a gym near Delma Street. Does this page answer that?
Yes. This page also answers searches for Delma Street, and the same advice applies: RPM is one club, on Level 4 of AD HUB Sports Complex in Al Manhal, and arriving and the first visit work as set out above. Time your own drive from wherever you start, at the hour you would train.
The route box measures from the point of Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Street nearest RPM, so add whatever stretch of the street you drive before that point. Its figures cover driving only.
Because many routes share this street at the end, the last part of your trip will probably look the same whether you come from home, from work or from somewhere new. That makes it a good stretch to learn on your first drive in.
What to carry in from the car
- Training clothes and shoes, or wear them under a layer.
- A water bottle, especially from May to September.
- A towel, until you have asked whether towels are provided.
- A change of clothes if you are going on somewhere afterwards. The grooming hub has hairdryers and products, so those can stay at home.
- Nothing to lock your things with, since the lockers use keypads.
| Days | Opening hours |
|---|---|
| Saturday to Thursday | 06:00–23:00 |
| Friday | 09:00–22:00 |
Hours can change, for example during Ramadan. Confirm with the team before a late or early visit.
Plan your arrival around the hours above. Fridays are shorter and Ramadan can move the times, so check before a first visit on either. The calmest first arrival is the free guided tour, a walk round the club with a member of the team rather than a workout.
Questions, answered.
Does the street name mean RPM is on Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Street?
Think of the street as the last part of the drive. RPM is inside AD HUB Sports Complex in Al Manhal, on Level 4, and it has no other club.
How early should I arrive for a class or a coached session?
Early enough to get from the car to the floor and change before it starts. On your first visit, ask the team how much time they suggest, since it varies by session.
I am coming for the Ladies section. Is arriving any different?
Ask the team how to find the Ladies section when you arrive. It is a women-only area with its own equipment and the Pilates studio, and your tier needs to cover it.
Can I see the club before I bring my kit?
Yes. Book the free guided tour and come in whatever you are wearing. It shows you the route from the car to the floor, so your first training visit starts without any searching.
