Athlete and Privilee Member
Jamie Simmonds
Self-care is a non-negotiable for me, and Privilee helps me practice it daily.
As an athlete, training hard is second nature—but so is looking after myself. Over the years, I’ve learned that recovery, mindset, and slowing down are just as important as the sessions where I push limits. That’s why resetting is part of my routine. It’s all about doing what makes me feel good—and lately, that’s been finding new ways to move, rest, and recharge with Privilee.
HYROX and Chill, FitGround
This one ticks all the boxes. A 90-minute session built around HYROX-style training—high-intensity, functional, and a real sweat. The energy at FitGround is unreal. After the workout, I take a plunge in the ice bath. It’s brutal (in a good way), but it’s the best way to reset both mentally and physically.

Power Hour, Arena Fitness
I love kicking off my Saturday with something that challenges me—and Arena’s CrossFit sessions do just that. It’s fast-paced, focused, and the vibe in the gym is always motivating. You walk in a bit tired, and walk out feeling unstoppable.

Recovery mode at 321 Sports
If you haven’t tried a cold plunge yet, you’re missing out. I head to 321 Sports when I want to wind focus on cold and hot therapy - going from the cold plunge to the sauna is so beneficial to anyone who trains! The hit post-workout is something else. It’s part of my routine now.
I also love the pool here for laps outdoors!

Pool days, W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island
Not every reset needs to be high performance. Sometimes it’s about switching off. That’s why I love heading to the W’s adults-only pool. It’s calm, there’s space to just relax, and I can actually feel my body unwinding.

Your version of wellness might look different to mine—and that’s the point. Privilee gives me the space to train hard, rest well, and do it all in a way that works for me. However you move, recover, or reset—find what feels good. That’s the win.
